    Nice! And yeah, thanks for letting us know about the early ToyDojo shipment!
    I know you didn’t ask me, but I’ll just say that my copy came with 0 issues as far as I know. He’s a pretty solid figure!

    I wouldn't say he's my favorite but he's very good! I'm mine anyway his hips don't lock into place anywhere so that's disappointing. But other than that I really like him

    Is the top half pushed all the way into the bottom half? Someone else had this issue then realized they didn’t have the waist locked in to place far enough. The separation mechanism works really well actually. You can totally ignore that feature if you wanted to.

    Pretty sure I am, although one of his legs is longer than the other and I can't figure out why

    Sam, get to the BEELDING!
    Are your hip joints pushed all the way up to the skirtpiece? They don't tab in, so when you're messing around with the figure, they have a chance to shift slightly downwards. Either that or a leg was weirdly mistransformed are my only answers (aside from a possible QC issue that is).

    Thank you! They definitely turn out better when I take a bit of extra time to storyboard the transformation. That way I get an idea of how I want the gif to look. I did that with Megatron, but not Bonecrusher, I think it shows.

    That is so great. Looks so close to the animation in the movie with the cab folding under Megatron and everything. Lovely seeing this.
    Only thing I can think of to improve this wonderful piece is maybe multiplying the truck mode picture just before the transformation (to create a small pause), and a few back and forth of the last two pictures so we see Megatron just standing there with his Cape fluttering in the wind for a few seconds
