Talk:Dune Runner (ROTF)

Is that a NEST logo on his door? I can't quite tell. --Andrusi 11:55, 23 June 2009 (EDT)

NEST logo modified with Autobot insignia, if I'm correct.--Rosicrucian^Talk 11:57, 23

Was he in the Movie?

I just noticed how Landmine's Buggy appeared in the Movie, and I am wondering, Where the nest Buggies based on Dune Runner?

I believe it was the Dune Runner figure itself who was based on the vehicle, not the other way around - Remember, they were in the first movie, way before Dune Runner. Hope I'm not misunderstanding anything. -- Malunis T 16:28, 1 August 2009 (EDT)

Could make a good movieverse Hound or Beachcomber?

If you remove one of the guns, I think it could be passable as Hound. Kitbashers would probably wanna give it a new head and paintjob, though. Same for Beachcomber, but without both guns. -- Malunis T 16:30, 1 August 2009 (EDT)

Random hinge

The chest on the figure has a hinge on the windshield. Does this serve any real purpose? --Malunis T 20:42, 9 August 2009 (EDT)

Are you talking about that rectangular line just above the actual windshield in robot mode? That's the roof lights, not a hinge. Compare with the vehicle mode image.--Apcog 23:55, 9 August 2009 (EDT)

Oh no, I know what those are. The hinge is actually right under those lights. It allows you to fold the windshield behind the roof, but this is utterly useless as far as I can tell. Here's a blurry pic. Couldn't be for the robot mode, you'll see why if you have the figure. Any ideas? --Malunis T 02:05, 10 August 2009 (EDT)

That's...very odd, to be sure. I'll have to pick up one and experiment with it. Could be worth a Trivia note on the page, at least.--Apcog 12:29, 12 August 2009 (EDT)
