    Dutch is flanked by Generation Toy and Takara’s THS. I have X2’s, he towers over them all. He’s as tall as some Deluxe figures.

    Are you wanting it to compare the sizes? If so I have the Nemesis Prime version of Dutch, if you want I can take some pictures with him and legends Optimus.

    Well, I got the hip fix in from TF-Direct and also got the reprolabels in too. The hip fix is OK, ball joint still pops off but not nearly as bad as it was and the swivel on the mushroom peg is infinitely better. As for the reprolabels, I did not use all of them but the ones I did use I think make it look loads better. Here are some pictures. Honeslty, the repros were worth it just for the cell windows and side window to cover the black hinge.

    Has anyone on here used Tamiya cement or future on the hip joints with success? Just bought this guy today and want to know if I should order the hip replacement parts or if what I have on hand will do.

    the first question should be does yours have bad hips? if it does you will know the second you mess with his legs. if they don't pop off instantly you have a good one and if that is the case call it a night.

    Based on the thread it doesn't sound like anyone got one with good hips out of the box? Do newer versions have updated hips? I ordered from TF Source and have Future and Tamiya Cement so I'll just give those a shot then if I do get one with loose hip joints. Don't really want to pay for replacement hip parts.

    no the later version didn't have hip issues just the first runs from what i remember. like i said it is really easy to tell.

    just stand your prime in front of you and look at him for 2 mins and if the hips stay on long enough for you to blink after you stood him up you are good.

    but seriously all it takes in one transformation or a simple twist of the legs to pop them off. if that doesn't happen you are good.

    btw...TF Source should send you the hips if you need them. for what it is worth
