    This is probably old news, but the Battle Masters have a peg for that "shot in the back" effect:

    And the 5 mm chest peg is good for the "trampled" pose:

    On seibertron it says that Amazon UK is the place to go for affordable transformers in the UK because soundawe is £23.99 which is standard Retail price in the UK as well as Greenlight being £33.99 but the contents are worth roughly £27.

    So I've been fiddling around with both of my Siege Primes. I can get Galaxy Prime's shoulder and forearm armor to go on the voyager prime and it looks pretty good. Anyone been able to figure out a way to finagle the legs and torso bits onto him without removing any of his bits?

    I just examined mine more in detail, I see what you mean now. Below the pin they look exactly the same but at the hip there is a protrusion going to left or right depending on the leg. Interesting how they messed that up.

    Well now you'll have another set sent to you and you can turn it into Buzzsaw

    I know, not perfect but I took a little artistic liscence for a coherent gun mode and to have a break up of the colors in robot mode .

    Even with Cog, Topshot, Flak, and Pteraxadon, I'm not sure if Hound has a chance against Shockwave.

    Just got Laserbeak & Ravage, I was having trouble getting them at the right price since they weren't available in my country (or just available through other online sellers charging nearly 50 bucks). I somehow thought they would be bigger but instead are so incredibly small and look great along Soundwave, I'm feeling some of that completionist joy right now :)

    Is there a figure stand that works with Siege voyager Optimus? I’m using the Tamashii Act 5 stands but the pegs in these stands are too big for the peg hole that Optimus gots. Anyone notice how every Siege figure has working peg holes for stands but OP got left out?

    The hole on his rear is ~2mm, too small for any conventional stand, so you'll have to drill it out.

    The weird part is the hole under his truck mode is 3mm; I have no idea how they screwed it up during manufacturing.

    I have the same stand and the only way I was able to use it with him was to use the 3pc clamp around his waist which doesn't feel very secure but can hold some quick poses

    Thanks for the replies you guys. Its frustrating that HasTak clearly designed these figure for stands but really goofed on OP.

    I thought about using clamps but it’s a flimsy fit and OP is heavy. Ugh! :(

    But you'll never know if they are complete yes or no. Sometimes they miss an item, like his/her gun.

    Nice and clean.
    It's gotta be lots of work.
