My Fort Max has ramp issues also. I think its an issue with the mold in general. I also fixed Scourge's bobble head issue with a thin piece of felt placed in the bottom of the port. It applies just enough pressure to deal with the bobble.

 

Mine is the same and has a huge stress mark on the chest (calling it battle damage )  

 

Off by one year, friend.  

 

Metal... Gear?


BROTHAAAAA

 

Ok, so I just saw TR deluxes in person for the first time at my local Walmart.
I've heard a lot of complaints about their size, but I compared them to the RID deluxes next to them and they were the same size. Honestly makes me think the complaints about size were based on mental comparisons to the G1 originals, which were much bigger and bulkier.

Didn't buy one yet (still out of work after moving) but once I get a job I'll probably try out one or two. They definitely look cool.

Edit: I love that Metal Gear mode  

 

I didn't expect him to be much bigger than CW deluxes, but I was surprised that he was so close in size. The Titan Masters are seriously tiny, it's impressive.

 

Anyone else just having a blast with these guys? I really enjoyed CW but the material quality, variety and designs in TR are a big step up.

I'm REALLY enjoying Blaster. More than I ever would have guessed!!

 

Put a rotf skystalker by it. That thing screams metal gear ray.

 

I have to say I'm loving the line so far.

Once I painted his face silver I was quite happy with Galvatron.

I'm loving Hardhead though I've ordered a Takara one because I don't like faceplates. Might see if I can convert one into Gutcruncher.

Skullcruncher is a lot of fun though he's hard to stand in robot mode.

I've bought 2 Scourges so far and I love Blurr's alt mode.

Can't wait for Highbrow

 

it's kinda ( ...as in, in a really, completely unimportant way but still...) killin' me listen to everyone talking about how much they are loving TR since i am waiting for TT for all of wave 1 (except the voyagers, and there i'm going SDCC for SP/Brainstorm).. i'll probably have Wave 2 (which i'm going more Hasbro on) before i have Wave 1  

 

I think I echo alot of peoples sentiment when I say I'm really loving the TR line too. I loved CW because of us getting the scramble city combiners the way I felt they should be. And with TR I'm getting my original Headmaster characters in Classics form so I'm having a lot of fun. Even the characters that weren't originally Headmasters have filled some much needed gaps in my Classics line. I'm looking at you Blaster and Galvatron.

 

This  

 

I love this line so far but my one big complaint is the sticker quality on the tablets. Stripes is already showing wear and I just got him yesterday. I was hoping Buzzsaw's issues were a one-off but I guess I'll be keeping an eye on Reprolabels in the coming months.

 

Got my Clobber and Apeface today. Love em. Just waiting on my RID G1 Grimlock to arrive, few mods, and then it's head-on time!

 

Agreed, except I think they dropped the ball BIGTIME with Galvatron. Ugh. I can do without this toy. First buyers remorse

 

This is so disappointing to hear. I keep getting mixed reactions from him and i still dont know whether or not i want to buy him....btw, what does everyone think about the deluxes so far? Which one is the best of the bunch?

 

Blurr is, far as I'm concerned, hands-down the best of the line so far.

For Galvatron, eh. I like him. It depends on the buyer, honestly. The things people object to are pretty uniform... the mask gimmick and the jet mode tend to be the big ones. So it's not like you'll open up a surprising disappointment... if those things will bother you, don't get him. If they won't, then he's a pretty good toy.
