    How stable is the camera mode when combined? Those two Reflectors hanging off the sides seem like a lot of weight for those small of connections.

    I haven't had any issues; it's a pretty solid brick.

    This doesn't account for the third round peg. I believe it would operate as the camera button?

    Stability is no problem. The pegs/connectors are really tight.

    Only issue is the tripod stand might occasionally unpeg itself

    Yeah it can be used as a button. Also can flip the feet up on the right hand side to look like a flash if you wish.

    I think Matrix Workshop is working on an add-on for all the little bits and bobs Reflector would like to really sell the camera mode. Not sure if it's out yet or not though, and who knows what it'll be priced at.

    Super solid. At least on mine, they stand zero change of falling apart. The connectors are snug. You can whip the thing across the room and it wouldn't fall apart. If you're into that sort of thing.

    Mine hasn't unpegged itself. Everything seems to be holding up just fine. Of course, mine has been on display since day one...

    Though awesome to have I never needed instructions, I just watched Peugh's Review when I got my 3 a couple weeks ago.

    I was doing it wrong for a couple of months until I watched Peaugh's review. I had the robot arms of Spectro and Spyglass hanging off of the back. Now the camera is absolutely a solid brick. Now if the tripod would only stay on...oh well, Reflector...er, Refraktor (DAMN you, trademarks!) is one of the absolute best Siege releases that we've gotten, IMHO.

    Even though it's not difficult to figure out, I'm surprised Hasbro didn't add the instructions to the retail release in the first place.

    Considering that it's advertised on the box and not an Easter egg like with Soundwave.

    Love this guy. Using a head and chest as the flash was my favorite choice.
