    Ah I see. I'll probably get him then when September rolls around, that way ill have more funds and stuff so this purchase doesn't set me back too much. I hope they'll have fixed to issues with it by then, but as it is, it looks amazing

    Yeah.

    I mean, they can do much in 3 months.

    They fixed somethings in just two month.

    Wonder why Hasbro Asia released it so early.

    I hope fixes are made, not only for the hood and etc. in vehicle mode, but also the arms and back panels in bot mode.

    I really wanted to support this line fully. But if those changes aren't made and a KO company replicates this with those fixes, I'll end up buying that one.

    Ugh, cripes. This is really sad.

    Robot > Vehicle > Robot > Vehicle > Robot. That's my fourth transformation since I got him. Robot mode still looks so damn amazing...

    Fingers crossed WeiJiang decides to make an oversized version of this to fit with their other two FANTASTIC Prime figures, with flaws fixed.

    With fixes and more paint? Hell yes.
    Upscaled? Hell not.
    There are three options:

    1.-Wait until the normal release in september.
    2.-Tell to KBB to make these fixes and to put paint apps all over the place
    3.-Wait for even a more impproved re-edition from takara

    Hm... I used a TON of force but they kept popping up and out. (^.^') Those windows just won't sit against the hood.

    I'm not in the camp where I want Masterpieces to be bigger generally - just for me, I have their G1 and Evasion Mode Primes on a shelf together and they look soooo so great, I'd just want this to fit in with them. So, selfish reasons.

    The thing is... I have no idea. It just won't sit flush. Maybe it's the angles? Maybe it's the pegs and holes not lining up? I'm still at a loss.

    I hope they'll fix these issues by the time there's a September release, but I'm more or less inclined to believe that the figures you got were just duds, but who knows
