Have you used the large peg/socket to lock it?

The heel actually folds upward to enable you to secure the rear tail portion

 

Yes. It doesn't matter that it locks securely, it looks awful.

 

Anyone who doesn't like theirs please PM me. interested in getting a used one.

 

I don't have any issues with mine. I love it...but then again I didn't expect it to turn into a scale replica of some kind of helicopter, soooo.....
However, it does slightly suck that he doesn't have landing gear for the tail. I think that's my only complaint. It does 'feel' slightly different, but not necessarily worse to me. I love the transformation.

 

So, are Fansproject planning on releasing a revised run of this to fix the headmaster incompatibility at some point, so should I just buy one and hope they release revision parts at some part? (also, does either version of their Quickswitch fix the drill ratchet grinding issue, and if not how do I prevent it?)

 

They haven't announced whatever they're planning to do to fix the issue yet, just that they are aware of it and are working on a fix.

 

I got mine this weekend and I'm a huge fan. Love this toy.

I agree the alt mode is a little lackluster, but that is to be forgiven since the bot mode is excellent. Hardly any kibble and it's just so sleek and clean.

The transformation is clever, although not perfect.

This is the best figure in the line so far for me (maybe tied with Smart Robin). I just can't get over how good that bot mode looks.

 

Finally shipped my POL and got this figure. He is the most disappointing in the line. The chopper mode is awful. The transformation is only ok. The robot mode, however, is awesome. I love the chopper blades on the back of the arms. Sad to see the headmaster isn't compatible with the others in the line.

 

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but I just found out what seems to have happened to Browning II's transformation...the designer used it for Siege Spinister...at least in part...check at the 21 minute mark

carry on...
