    The wheel is pinned in place with a two piece plastic mushroom pin. The ratcheting comes from the plastic housing I think, so you could take it off and then cut out clear plastic to make the ratchet work again.

    Super happy with the figure. Glad this is the version of the mold I own. Can't stop fiddling with him!

    No pics yet.

    My first purchase of this mold and will use him for my CHUG Primal. Optimal Optimus will probably be filled by the PE Effect version.

    I have the mismatched shoulders but I'll fix that when I get home.

    A fun figure for what it is.

    I do feel sorry for the Prime Master collectors that this is the only way to get the remaining 4. Hopefully you guys can complete your collection without too much issues.

    I already don't like the fact that the stickers on the side of optimus primal's cockpit are already starting to peel. How can we protect these things?

    This is without a doubt the worst Generations figure I've ever owned, and im pretty forgiving.

    Someone should make a upgrade kit of armor for this figure so he can carry about 8 Prime masters in them while the four are on his staff and the 13th is in his matrix so he can wield all the power of the primes.

    Got my set yesterday and I gotta say I love it very much!! Hating that the stickers rub worst that on the Rodimus mold but oh well.

    I was planning on leaving plastic bubbles that the throne has so that Op Op fits better but I noticed on is painted black for some reason and it covers a part of the design. Hasbro WTF!?!? Anyway, any advice on getting those pieces of. It seems one has to completely disssemble the throne to remove them :confused: :confused: :confused:

    Remove the base then cut each piece of tape or remove it really carefully and unfold the entire throne to easily remove the tape and plastic you don't want.

    Amazing how fast AJP shipping is, as I completely forgot I ordered him.

    Soooo glad I opted for him instead of classic BW colors. Really makes the PotP theme work here. Now to get the upgrade kit.

    Mine arrived Monday as well. It was very well packed as always. I'm glad I ordered through Amazon.jp even though it meant a later arrival.
