Did anyone else find the instructions for ROTF Skids to be overly complicated and unclear. It may have just been me but it was really difficult to understand and figure out if from the directions. Luckily if you have transformed enough figures you can work it out on your own. Just wondering if anyone else had the same issues...especially with the roof/trunk section? |

That being said, the kicker for this figure was the top of the car mode. The main part doesn't want to flip over the roof properly. I was afraid of snapping and chipping plastic, but after watching Peaugh's review, I realized that you just have to be quick and firm with that part.
I like the overall form of Skids, but I think his feet and legs made him very hard to stand or pose. |
