    I’m not 5 years old crying about repaints and remolds of toys (that they use to find their larger figures). You do you buddy.

    Does Nickel’s front wheels spin freely or are they pretend wheels?

    Maybe. I wouldn’t be surprised either way.

    If you look at the photo of her front facing vehicle alt you can see the wheels are rotated to different positions but I'm not expecting they're fully free spinning as they likely have a firm friction to them for the sake of keeping her standing upright.

    Ah yeah. I probably would’ve made a lock or something that goes into/around the wheels. The wheels could sling freely but the robot mode would be solid. Whatever, I’m no designer.

    That was actually what Byrins V1 of mmc Nickel did. His leg design had braces that hinged down. The version mmc ended up making has little flip out toe and heel pieces built directly in to the wheel. I prefer that method myself. A locking mechanism for the wheel wouldn't really accomplish much as she'd be falling over regardless of her wheels being able to freely move or not due to the shape of them, similar to ROTF Sideswipe and if we ever see an MP of him its going to run in to the same problem so when it comes to wheel feet I think any toy will need some form of toe/heel to flip out regardless.

    Look like the robot head is visible from below in alt mode for Foxwire and it is suggest to not turn the head around to avoid paint scratch.
