Love the movie character, bought the toy. Brought it home, tried to transform him to plane mode. WORST PIECE OF MOTHER-F***ing S*** I ever bought!!! The instructions are so useless, I may as well use it for toilet paper. Even that it would fail as it would give me a paper cut on my butt. What the hell was Hasbro thinking with this thing?!?!
Yes I watched all the vids on youtube, but mine does not come close to how well theirs fit together. Where do the legs clip on to? Where do the straps go? How do you get the nose cone/arms to fold together? What the heck do I have to do to put the thrusters to the fuselodge without the dang panels unclipping themselves. This thing is beautiful, but a total agony to transform. I was really looking forward to this thing, and it is a huge disappointment unless someone can give me some guidance as to change the thing and where the parts go as the instructions are a sick joke. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Ye have fair warning. TF2 Leader Prime is a cake walk compared to this guy. |

As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room,
we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another.
Why do you think we invented politics and religion.

I love his robot and alt forms, it's just getting there that is frustrating. Nothing wants to cooperate and stay in place, and he's a bulky fella to work on which makes it all the more time fickle.

It looks like it plugs into those two holes but it doesn't . I finally uncliped it and tucked it beside his feet. Otherwise, no issues. Did take a while to get the thrusters in place. | |

Mentally - Still In Disney World Collection Count: 150 plus some sweet ROTF RPM's | Why don't you just keep trying to transform him. Eventually you will figure out all the tricks. It took me like three times to figure out all the tricks on Optimus. I find it funny when people gets so pissed that they can't understand the instructions. The Instructions never give you the "magic key" to transform these things. Just time and Patience.
