    Picked this bad boy up for 45 at my Walmart. Does anyone know how to prevent his mask from springing off his face? 20190915_133823.jpg
    Now, MYSTERY TIME, does anyone know why this was scrawled into the top of my box??

    No, the slots are slightly too narrow.

    That looks fantastic.

    I have a Rainmaker set on the way.

    Can't wait to add them in with the rest of the seekers. :)

    Haven't heard of that one yet. Did you try to loosen the screw to see if it helps? You need a #0 Philips screwdriver that doesn't have the pinpoint head.

    I don't have this problem on ours. I posted a tutorial earlier about disassembling the head for doing mods:
    War for Cybertron: Siege Appreciation Thread

    The clear part on the forehead is where the mask plugs into. The forehead port is made from the 2 front halves of the head coming together. There's a clear plastic piece in the forehead with a spring behind it. If you take apart the head, you try to see if it's a port issue, mask peg issue, and/or the spring is too strong. If you take out the spring, then the forehead piece won't go back forward.

    Edit: I guess the link changed after some thread clean-up. Fixed now. Taking apart the head is non-destructive.

    I don't have time to take mine apart to look, but you would have to disassemble quite a few things to take a look directly inside that joint.

    Mine was like this on both arms. I just held the joint on both sides and twisted extremely hard. One side made a small crack sound, the other louwas veryd. Sounded and felt like a bit of glue was holding the joints stuck. After I broke it free both sides worked fine.

    Omega Supreme is great but we need Omega Sentinels in this mold to go with him. 20190915_150922.jpg

    Omega Supreme and his space station mode makes me wish we could get some updated Micromaster bases too.
