    Yeah mine cracked recently, despite being really careful with it. Still transforms, just has a crack.

    "Unidentified aircraft, power down now. Have your crew step out or we will kill you."

    Barricade is really not perfect and proof that sometimes clear plastic isn't the best idea. The ball joint on the hood on mine cracked recently even though I've been very careful handling it. The part still stays there at least.
    The trick to Barricade's transformation is making sure the slots on his hips tab onto the appropriate pegs on the car body. It's really tricky especially once you got one side tabbed already. I've already gotten the hang of it but the first times transforming him was very rough.

    LOL WTF that can't be the correct combination. Here's hoping the Japanese instructions include the combination.

    The Constructicons are very progressive and do well on debate teams.

    Same happened to mine, fortunately I was able to use Loctite brand super glue and that fixed it. Sick of clear plastic being used for joints. The break in none was the bar that goes from the door into the shoulder.

    On the topic of clear plastic joints - After I learned about the transparent joints in Lockdown, I'm honestly too scared to transform him now.

    This thing is freaking massive. I love it. Now I'm on the hunt for a black mpm 4 that isn't oversized to match him. Any suggestions? 15809550983928672041888470854803.jpg

    Finally did this guy and his little pal up a little. I’ve taken another look at this figure and I like it more than I initially thought. The extra paint apps I added really help, although I’m not super happy with how blue the blue came out. Thoughts?

    Agreed. Nice touch!
