    ...:lol 

    One cool little feature I'm not sure a lot of people know about is on RotF Scout Detour/Dead End. He actually has a mouth full of tiny fangs and not just a weird owl face. And to top it off, his lower jaw actually moves.

    Also, Universe Onslaught can hold G1 Onslaught's gun. And looks real badass doing it.

    DeathStar/Vader transformer has additional sound bites when you hold the sound activation button down instead of just pressing it.

    The peg holes on 2.0 Sunstreaker's shoulders can fit Classic Hot Rod's gun as well as Classics Camaro BB's shoulder cannons perfectly.

    Universe Power Glide's chest panel opens up to show a heart. Had him for about three months without knowing this!! I don't own any the repaints.....wonder if they also have a heart.

    Yep!!! I took one of Camero BB's cannons, put one of G1 Tracks' white missles in it and put it on Sideswipe... for a more G1 accurate look. Looks great!

    ...I'm going to have to try that. I just have to find my Re-issue Track's box now.

    It's molded on so all of them have it. It was one of his highlighted features back before he was released.

    Hmm, didn't know the lower jaw could actually move.

    ... that is... AWESOME. I'll definitely have to get the Classics 2.0 G1 redeco when it comes out now.

    I never knew until the TRU-reissue announcements that Perceptor had a cannon mode.
    *embarrassed*

    and have had G1 Jetfire since 1996, and never knew until I started here at TFW how to attach his gun clip.
    *Facepalm*

    I just got Sunny today, so i gotta try that!

    not really a hidden feature. they're the standard peg hole size, so you can give sideswipe a shoulder mounted gun if you want. anything with a standard peg size is gonna fit. hell, you could put energon cruellock's giant sword in that hole if you wanted.

    Actually the shoulder slots on the Lambo brothers isn't a standard peg hole. It's actually smaller then the standard peg. The only reason their guns can work in the peg hole is because they're actually thinner on the bottom of their pegs. So very few guns can really fit in those slots.

    Nice! I'm totally gonna swipe one of my '74 BB's guns for Sideswipe now. Of course I'll need to find him a replacement blaster as well.

    What gun is that btw?

    It's also from the same KO Devastator. Although the peg was replaced with one that would fit in Sunny's hand.
    They still sell the KO Dev. at my local Biglots. Check yours!
