The instructions are kinda crappy. Sorry for the stupid question, but how do I switch on the left arm's light and sounds gimmick?

EDIT:

I think they fucking neutered the guy. I tried to access his battery compartment, and lo and behold, a weirdly shaped screw notch that does not fit any of my screwdrivers. Not cool Hasbro. Definitely NOT COOL.

Holy shit!! Did they really do that?!?! that's like locking the fat kid in the car and going into McDonald's...holy shit. You can turn those with a good detail screwdriver set, but the correct one NEEDS to be the perfect length, otherwise you can round that screw. I would suggest get that thing out, and replace it with another screw.

That is SO bad...

Anyways...damn..omega looks pretty damn good. Really gives me a WFC vibe with the colors goin on.

WTH is with you?!?! This is a TRANSFORMERS site! How the hell can you just show off bot mode and NOT transform it? That's bullshit...its like I'm the fat kid locked in the car now...aaaahhhhh....ok...I see what you did there. Well played. Taking your vengeance from the screw out on us. Well played.

He looks pretty good, but would all those gold-yellow colored plastic on him be subject to GPS? I'm not too familiar with it.

That's a big mama-jama! He looks pretty cool but I'm still unsure where he would fit in my collection, even against Raged Hercules.

He looks nice. I was going to get that 3rd Party guy, but the pictures have changed my opinion,. He's going to look a lot better with my Omega Sentinel anyways.

I think that's just gold-ish paint. Simple paint can't fall victim to GPS. As far as I know....

Thanks man. I hope someone else who has him in hand (and has the right tools) can shed more light on the matter.

I actually already transformed him to alt mode, but there really isn't much to say about those two vehicles. He's now back in bot mode. And I was too lazy to take pics...

Yep, painted plastic, it seems. So no GPS.

Does the 4-fingered claw hand rotate?

Yes, but freely, no ratchet. It can be spun like a wheel.

Electronics removed. Duh. I was hoping for new sound effects or something.

That is too bad that he doesnt light up. Ah well, can't have it all can we Hasbro?

Great review, love your pics! Interested in seeing if you found anything new with the vehicle mode. Perhaps a way to partially recreate his old alt mode?
