    I recently got him too. I skipped his first released because I really didn’t like the kibble under his arms and then he and other early voyagers recently flooded stores and man I was wrong. He’s pretty awesome. Sadly there’s no fix for the barrel other than just fiddling with it the best you can.

    Do you leave the head in there (on the body, so it's right where the bumper goes)? the only way I can replicate this is with the head in there instead of taking it off to put as the "micro" driver.

    The head pushes on the arms/shoulders and they are near impossible to place properly.

    weirdly, the jarring kibble never really registered with me. I get why people were put off by it, but it doesn't irk me much. I’ve tried to fix the barrel with hot water, but I think you may be right about there being no fix. Oh well, I’ll just keep him in his awesome bot mode.

    I had also given that suggestion earlier, but you must've missed it.

    Time for guessing games.

    I had an idea for a bit of a retool for a figure from 2019. But I'm going to keep it a secret till they finally announce the character is being made.

    So statistically, we can see 11 deluxes, 3 of which are repaints, 6 voyagers, 1 of which is a repaint, and 3~ leaders, with potentially 1 of them being a repaint.
    In any case, my bet for 2020's repaint deluxe is probably gonna be an AoE/TLK bot. Maybe Crosshairs or AoE Bumblebee?

    Turn up!

    You'd think that for the anniversary of Rotf he'd happened by now. Maybe it's because he's not a well received by fans so he's not too priority?

    I think I might have. I'm sorry if I did. Did you happen to have any ideas about the arm?

    It won't stay on. Not in robot mode at least.

    Heads off. It's just that one corner doesn't stay in. Lol. Micro Cogman sits inside. Lol. Per the instructions.

    Damn, the Wheelie and Brains that are included with Shockwave are tiny!

    Which I should have expected, given that they’re smaller than people in the movies, but still, they’re so small lol. I’m almost afraid to have them on display because they’re so small lol I’ll have to be extra careful with ‘em.

    It's a bit hard to tell from the photo, but is it falling off from the peg that let's you switch it out, or the elbow peg? If it's the one that lets you swap, it's probably just a small QC error of the hole being too big for the peg. You can remedy that pretty easily with some Future Floor Polish or super glue.
