I might or might not get him, depending on my budget.. Quote:

There's no indication in the instructions AT ALL about what they're for. They line up in robot mode, if you unfold them the right way, and they connect the arms to the torso like in the picture. It just doesn't really make any sense.
Also, the red "energy panels" behind his head are apparently supposed to "pop" out when you push his head down (after folding them behind his head, and pushing his head up to lock them in place) but mine hardly fold in at all. They're locked in place just fine, but they're not folded in enough that they can store away folded, like they can if you manually hold them in place and fold the head back. They're not even folded in enough to be unnoticeable. There doesn't appear to be any mechanism out of place, so I'm assuming its an engineering flaw.
Basically this is all guessing, because I can't find another review of the guy online, with the exception of that one video review in the video forum. | Try fiddling around with the figure. You might find a reason why those things are there  |

As for the background, I have a lot of recent acquisitions and my desk has become very occupied! | |

He, along with Sideways, are probably the figures I'm looking forward to the least. But this review has changed my opinion on the fallen at least. So thanks for the review!

There also seem to be some outright wrong steps in there, too. Instructions that ignore the most logical positions for a piece, or have you fold up a piece away from the connector that it's obviously supposed to connect to. | |

I just saw this. How do they get the head to stay up and away from the body like that, though?! | |

Mostly the first, those kinds of things really irk me. | From the videos I've seen, it isn't short at all. It's really tall for a Voyager. | |
