Its so his combiner port can be pushed out

 

I must say i am impressed with him. The arm kibble sucks but the shuttle mode blew me away and he is the first transformer I've had that u honestly cant tell transforms when in alt mode. Gonna put him in arm mode and compare his arm to os uranos. Someone suggested folding his arm bits back in robot mode and it really does make a difference. Just keep in mind the "big" picture, Armageddon will be the largest brute to date and will look great next to constructor and sky terror. I have watched the tcp reviews for those jets several times and am still blown away

 

Did we ever get a combined mode of sky terror?

 

Not that I've seen. Want to see it too. I put him in arm mode. Watched bens review and like mine his figure came with the upper torso turned backwards so the arm only pivots downward. Turn it before transforming. I wonder if anyone will paint one of the aerialbots brown to replace takeoff

 

Whirlblade is out for delivery!

 

Nice, mine shipped too late so gotta wait till Monday.

Also +1 for what @Sentinel said  

 

I was wondering if the blades had to be folded. You answered that for me. I also did notice when watching a Constructor review that the combiner ports had to be pulled out and turned and I couldn't do that on my takeoff. However I loosened the screw just a little and it allowed me to turn it then

 

also call me crazy but I cut 2 of the rotor blades off to make it more G1 haha

 

 Now you screwed up. Its never gonna fly like that

 

arms don't need to fly  

 

Is that the Decepticon toon symbol on his shoulder? That looks really cool. Where did you get that?

 

yes it is, I got it from reprolabels

Cartoon Clean Symbols

 

Hi! Are the blades locked in place or they move freely?

 

they move pretty freely but balance out well so if you just have him standing there alone they wont move

 

I'll be doing that too. But you had to cut them off?

 

This will be a total new fight in a few months

 

didnt have to but looks cleaner without the stubs where you pin in the other blades
