    If they could adapt All Hail Megatron, it would be incredible. Make it a two parter even.

    At least a few members posted that they had assembly errors in their original copies several pages ago. I remember one member saying that they got a backwards double hinge piece in one or both of the door assemblies. I forget the errors that other members got.

    It'd be cool to have a new Longarm, with movie accurate detailing!
    Also make him come with missile launchers than can also fit on 2007 Bee's shoulders so you can properly recreate that "I drive you shoot!" scene.

    I transformed SS-49 for the first time, to make sure mine was assembled correctly. It is, thankfully, but ummm....yeah I don’t wanna transform that guy ever again.
    Does anyone else have a hard time getting the front fenders to push past the assembly the wings are mounted on? Holy smokes I thought I was gonna break those. Also, the singular gray bar the entire figure is rooted from bends really easy; don’t think it’ll break or anything, in fact that’s probably why Hasbro designed it to bend, but still.
    So yeah...probably another nonconverter for me. Anyone else feel the same? I will say though, the Camaro mode is nice.

    Got the same issues as you, however the "spine" doesn't bother me as much. I just take my time to rotate it and it doesn't seem to be tight or anything.
    the front wheel things however, do. If the concerned parts didn't form the exterior of the car I'd have shaved some plastic off them.
    Transformed him multiple times now and he's still okay.

    That's why I've been holding that assembly in place when moving the front fenders back and forth with my fingers.

    Well thankfully, the stuck waist freed up more after transforming, so that’s nice. It’s still tighter than I’d like, might use a drop of dish soap or shock oil if I can, but it’s easier than before.
    And yeah, that’s why I didn’t cut them right then and there, it’d affect the car.

    That’s what I did and it didn’t work very well, but I can try again another time. It was just way harder to overcome that step than I expected.

    As far as appreciation goes, I feel like I don't do my part here very often, so here's some pics of the first Studio Series figure I got!
    p.s. Are we getting any new SS in MArch? WIN_20200127_14_40_05_Pro.jpg WIN_20200127_14_40_25_Pro (2).jpg WIN_20200127_14_41_44_Pro.jpg WIN_20200127_14_43_58_Pro.jpg

    Finally!!! I (re)ordered my Arcee triplets in the UK cause the chinese sellers have new years break ( I am still waiting to get my SS49 Bumblebee,over 6 weeks after ordering and it is still in china ;-(
    These ladies are on their way now and will be with me in a couple of days.. If only I could cancel Bee and order him in the UK as well, granted they are 10 euro more expensive (41 euro delivered) but at least I would have had them way sooner..
    if only there was somewhere in the Netherlands I could get them sooner.. delivery is kinda rubish in Europe.

    Sorry for the rant, I just want to see them!

    It works better and better with each successive transformation.
