    Just got this in hand. It is 100% certain that the shoulder pieces should be flipped flat side up after trying both ways myself. It's the difference between a fun transformation and a transformation that annoys and puts up a fight.

    I just got a notice from amazon that my scheduled shipping is delayed. No idea when they will actually ship though.

    I ordered this one and Repungus together. Repungus was already in stock but it didn’t ship because it was waiting for punch to be in stock. Then punch was released, but they shipped Repungus without it ://
    Didn’t get a notice for shipping of punch yet, hope it won’t take long.
    Good part is that it might save me some money for customs

    I ordered one on July 14 and a second on July 16, and only my July 16 order has shipped. I figured one would ship without the other at this point but somehow I assumed the one I ordered first would be the first one shipped. lol

    I wound up shaving the diagonal tabs on his shoulders just a smidgen so they fit in the fenders without stressing the plastic.

    Transformed back and forth a few times, then did the shoulder fix... it is an improvement, and the shoulders click/lock into place when going to vehicle mode. :thumb 

    Was wondering if anybody else shaved the inside of the cockpit to allow prima to pop in and out easily?

    And wondered how many people plug the clear armor part under the car to fill out the chassis - looked like it was designed to go there.

    And for the rocord, both my Primas paints are fine.

    Can't do it. Tried it. Forced my figure's hood apart and when I applied pressure back, it fired out of the underside like a missile and shot across the floor.

    :lol  yeah... but it's made to perfectly fit in there, molded and all.

    The spring-shot is a bonus suprise.

    Ground not level enough?

    If you did the shoulder fix, it's a bit more snug. Mine had no issues either way though.

    Just got mine yesterday. Did the shoulder fix, that was a nerve-racking experience that I never want to do again. But wow, night & day difference in the transformation.

    Question for anyone that has him: in Punch mode, are the front tires part supposed to tab into his shoulders? The tabs and holes are there and line up, but there's a sizable gap between them still.
