    The panel (lower portion of front bumper) slides out towards the front of the car. Once you gain access to the inside/battery compartment, there’s a spring in the middle. There’s room between the spring and the metal plate for at least one battery or two once you compress the spring. (I can’t remember off the top of my head if it says to use two or one). The spring should be attached at one end, so it should only go one way.

    Mine didn't come yesterday like I thought... turns out it was one of those Sure Post dealies, so being at my local UPS hub didn't mean it was going to me the next day, it meant it was going to the Post Office so USPS could drive it to my house.

    So, they didn't arrive yesterday, but they did arrive today. No time to mess with them today, but the car modes sure are nice.:D

    Got mine from tcp today and am happy to report no breakages or cracks or anything on mine! (But I'm also not bending that front flap the "right" way, either. I don't want to force it so I let it fold in the way it wants to and tbh there's plenty room for it to still fold into the back and everything still looks fine so I'm rolling with it *shrug*)

    Really cool figure!

    Now I hope the wait for motormaster isn't TOO painful xD

    Props to @Paik4Life for being the ONLY video reviewer to show both forward AND reverse transformation steps for XTB Crackup. This really ought to be the standard for reviews of transformable figures. Starts at 5:15 mark.

    This is what happens when everyone is making the same characters. I'm so ashamed.

    Now if only DX9 could hurry up, I could accidentally screw up some more threads.


    I knew one mode would have to suffer. Looks like it's combined mode.

    If confirmed, Dragstrip's issues might ruin this set for me. I'm not really a fan of having to mod my figure to have them work. I'll keep an eye of people's experiences in this thread.

    That’s understandable, but the two things you may have to do are minor, and if you know what to look out for from the start you should be good to go.

    Welp, I'm just gonna say this now: I broke my Overheat because his hood flap didn't go the way it was supposed to, and now I've spent another $84 just to get a replacement. At least I'll know to shave down the shoulders so the wheels have clearance as well, and the upper arms don't break. Seriously XTB, you hit it out of the park with Deathwish, and then you wind up only making it to 3rd base with Overheat? I know you guys are human, but seriously?

    Did you contact your seller of X-Transbots to report the issue?
