    Oof. That's okay, the combine mode hand doesn't grip the walls of it's port very well on mine. As for yours... get a woodburning tool with a thin tip and melt it out a little? Depends on how steady your hand is.

    I see! I'll have to check mine, I have groove and rook on defensor and the 4 jets on superion so these guys kinda just sit in a drawer with other non g1 combiner limbs.

    I'm so thankful for Legacy Menasor, thanks to it, several CW Stunticons reached secondary market, I personally prefer CW. The Deluxes are tetrachangers with triple changer weapons, and compatible with all other combiners, and personally I value how the essence of the G1 combination gimmick was translated, over screen accuracy or articulation.

    That being said, Motormaster is the worst CW Voyager ever. I wish a third party company made a CW Motormaster (I know there's upgrade kits, but I don´t like that kind of partsforming)

    I was torn decided to keep both. I like the alt modes being more modern in cw and you had a choice as to the fifth member if you didn't want a mold copy. With the PE kit that is cheap and available hes much better and with upgrades I couldn't chose between legacy (box set, I ended up trading out the regular set it needs paint)and CW - they're both rad. Having 2 means I can show one in combined and the other in alt/ robot.

    One company did:

    BCS-01 Lonewolf - Third Party Motormaster With Combiner Wars Compatibility!

    it’s not easy to hunt down and it’s pricey.

    The UW motormaster is bit better if you like the darker grey tones and I believe his ratchets are fix in that version as well
