nah, that's Newage Bluestreak. MST have their own Bluestreak in the works, and MFT has teased Tracks as an upcoming release. no update or release date though.

 

NA Bluestreak. They're the size of Hot Wheels in alt.

They have a Barricade too..

 

Newage - Diaclone version of Bluestreak

NA H3B Kitt

Barry is such hot fire. My son comments all the time about how shiny he is and then asks if he can feed him to his Trypticon. I tell him, "No, son," and then put him back in his timeout cage.

 

Thanks!
Too bad though. I am ready for the 2020 Legends Tracks wars after this year's Datsun wars.

D'oh! I picked up the silver Bluestreak, Prowl and Barricade, I should have recognized him.

 

Odd place to display Barry, but I can appreciate the irony of it.

 

I was talking about my kid. The kid goes in the cage; Barry goes on the shelf.

 

Ahh. Too big for a Detolf, I take it?

 

I've had my figure for a few months now, and there's been two issues on my copy that have been bothering me. I'd really appreciate some help with how to take care of these problems:

1. The pin on the left (Trailbreaker's right) shoulder is more pushed in than the one on the other side. How do I push in the one on the right (Trailbreaker's left)?



2. This piece is extremely loose.

 

1 - Various options. A & B use muscle, C uses heat. All of the above come with risk.

A) Use washcloth to wrap around areas you will apply pressure to, to avoid marking the surfaces. Kind of like a taco, where TB is the big, black meat. Then uses pliers to squeeze the pin fully into place.

B) Use a folded washcloth to fully support the plastic beneath the pin, so that there is no open space between the plastic and the surface it is on. Then, with a hammer and pin-punch/allen wrench/screwdriver/nail, gently tap the pin fully into place.

C) Use the tip of a heated tool, like a craft tool or soldering iron, and press the heated tip onto the pin for 2-4 seconds at a time. The pin will gradually warm enough to soften the plastic around it, allowing the pin to be gently pressed into position. This is the quickest and easiest option, but the one with no margin for error. It can be easy to get the heat too close to surrounding plastic, causing unwanted melting and damage. Be careful.

2 - Apply thin layers of floor polish with acrylic additive, like Pledge with "Future", clear coat acrylic paint, nail polish, or super glue to the black rod the truck panel swivels on, to gradually increase its thickness. This will tighten that joint. Just be careful not to accidentally bond any pieces together.

 

In regards to the second part, I've applied several layers of future to the rod itself, but it, and the pin it's attached to, just kinda wobble around until I actually peg the part in in vehicle or robot mode.

 

You just had to, didn't you? Lol

 

When inebriation and elocution join forces their works can be mighty.

 

@AutobotMirage

recommend clear nail polish layer or layers, i personally always use it over future unless it is a pinned joint you need to allow it to soak into(nail polish wont penetrate. This isn't, it is the pegging you need to work it seems.

 

Anyone wanting to sell their Trailbreaker? I've had zero luck trying to get one lately

 

try @ToyDojo i was there on friday and they have plenty of them instock. they also have all of the MS bots instock as well.

 

Thanks, the site says they are out and the price is kinda high but might send them a message.

 

That's my experience with the Dojo - if it says sold out, call and they probably have it "in the back".

 

site hasnt been fully updated. but they have them instock the shelf is full of MS bots.
