    I never bought a stand before but I have to say that's pretty awesome especially at a price like that.

    I should get in on this, plus it's official Transformers merchandise now too.

    This is great news. I hope they will standardize these for the next couple of years. Some KO offerings and different colors would be nice. Maybe an attachment for the tamashii stage acts to be able to adapt to the MP figures?

    I guess this is good as long as there is a decent spot to plug the peg into. What about any versions with the waist clamp design?

    This is obviously a must buy for anyone who gets MP Road Rage.

    Not sure why Takara couldn't include flight stands with their seeker releases.

    I think it actually needs a butt plug (or butt hole) to work. But really it needs something to peg into. My bumblebee actually cannot use Tracks' stand because he lacks a butt plug.

    I tried this with an Arcee just a little bit ago, they actually fit without any sort of adaptor.

    Only see them with autobot symbols only. So perhaps a decepticon symbol version isn't made yet?

    Btw my Brainstorm has 2 pegholes for a flightstand. So I am asuming this has been in the air for some time now "pun is intended"

    Actually meant to link the Act.5 version.

    And cool! When I grabbed them it was just packs of one. Only purchased three of them individually so far. May have to grab a set of three now. Thanks!

    I can, seeing as the seeker base mold is a 10 year old design with a specialized flight stand that only works for it. Granted Takara has stopped including that stand with the seekers likely to save them costs even as our price increases on them :rolleyes: 

    That and secondly, I would not trust a seeker on that tiny little peg on those stands... :)

    I actually like these a lot. I just tried to see if Tracks's stand worked with any other MP figures, and sadly it doesn't. Either way. Like I said, I love these TT stands. I'll definitely be adding them to future orders.

    Yeah, the peg on my Tracks stand broke too. But to fair, I was trying to use it on ToyWorld's Orion and it being a bigger/heavier figure, I sorta manhandled it and the peg sheared/snapped off. I did cut/sand off the remainder of the peg and attached a clear (large) claw from a Play Arts Kai stand and it's a perfect fit. Definitely salvageable and not a total loss at all since it now holds Orion pretty firmly.

    If you have access to a 3d printer, you can print my version in any color. And Shapeways will do it for you in solid steel for around $250...
