We’ve got word from TFW2005 member BB Shockwave and Bludgeon from HunFormers that Combiner Wars Wreck-Gar has arrived in Hungary. The Junkion, a remolding of the earlier Legends class Groove, lacks the “combine to form” sticker shown on the packaging in some official photography like earlier Asian retail sightings. Early reports suggest that the combination feature with Sky Lynx has been dropped, although there are fan-developed ways to combine the two toys. Hopefully a US release sighting should not be too far off as well.

I would try it out, but Sky Lynx's wave is far away still, we just got the Combaticons a month ago.

He's back again in the Wreck Gar case which should ease thing WHEN/IF this wave hits.

Hopefully we'll see these waves at the discount chains soon.

Yeah I'm starting to worry I'll never find Shockwave considering Combiner Wars is almost at its end
And I refuse to pay $20 for him (which is what most sellers online are trying to get for him)
And wow, Wreck-Gar looks terrible. The paint apps are…not good

Thanks for the heads-up about the head. That's an extra incentive to get him.

Sounds like we did some thing similar , it doesn`t look bad at all , but it may not satisfy half the Transformer fan base .

I find this news encouraging. UK hasn't had a Legends wave in a while and is due as they say. So hearing that Wreck-Gar's been seen elsewhere in Europe gives me hope he's coming here and I won't have to pay through the nose for it as I was anticipating!

I found I could hang groove in motorcycle mode by using his feet in the space on the top of the back, that you flip the head out of. Makes a nice backpack, though you can't flip Sky-Lynx's head and neck up if you do this.

Someone buy this and tell us how to combine him

The US barely has Shockwave. Surprised Wreckgar hasn't popped up online though.

I managed to combine my Skylynx with a groove in the back on his wings using the peg on his leg , of course while in vehicle mode , he just fit nicely along the spine of sky rein ……I had to maneuver skylynxs wing to face the opposite direction , but it works .
Nevermore
Surprise! Germany doesn't have it yet either!

and yet Canada doesn't have the Shockwave wave. -_-

check the instructions for sky reign compatibility! because i don't want the situation to be a "hey guys, wreckgar is in scale with sky lynx and thats it" deal….

Thanks for Bludgeon from our Hungarian TF forums (HunFormers) for the heads-up – and to my friend Sagia for picking one up for me.
Wreck-Gar is only out in Auchan stores so far. The rest of the wave is available too, but they are only re-releases.
He is pretty fun, love the tampographs. And unlike Groove, his head can fully rotate 360 degrees.
