I remember what Cyber-Kun said somewhere.

The hunchback/chestjoint on Animated Shockwave

i learned he had a toe thingy that you can put up at least a month after getting him.

I didn't know you could pull down the G1 Aerialbot's legs to make them longer until I had them for a few months.

Same thing for me except it was 2 years after.

Everyone knows about this now....but.....I didn't know Universe Prowl had extendable feet until several months after buying the toy........

And a more recently realised one (which I'd liked to think my thread realised) is that G1 Metroplex can combine with Hotspot, Silverbolt *and* Onslaught and Motormaster.

Wait, what do you mean extendable feet? Pics please?

I have the Silver/Bluestreak mold back home and I never noticed that his feet could be pulled out further. I guess I'll have to check that out.

just pull down on his feet. its gonna be a tight at first but it opens up a lot more posability.

Classics deluxe Optimus Prime, the one that comes in the 2 pack with Megatron. I didn't know you could lock his spinning gimmick in place by pulling the little black pin for a couple of years.

The side pieces on Universe Hounds legs can move round

EDIT-
Well I'm back and it works much less well on the SE. Might be the change in plastic, but you've REALLY got to mash it on there to get it to fit, and then it wants very badly to pop off again. It went VIOLENTLY flying 3 times before I gave up. May have to dig up a Gundam fist to mount there though, it's still a great idea!

yea i tried that on mine, not only do they not fit, they are not even both the same shape lol one's a square for crying out loud

as for hidden features, i just discovered that bantor *bw fuzor*'s tail section removed, thanks to a very helpful reviewer here on this board

i had that think since it first came out
