    I understand that reasoning, but it could still work if they do the car backwards, right?

    I couldn't design my way out of a paper bag, so I honestly couldn't say. :lol 

    Equally popular, maybe? I think Minerva being female kind of adds a little to her popularity for the novelty factor. But in the Masterforce cartoon, Shuta Go is kind of the main kid, I feel, so he may be more popular with Japanese fans. It may be worth noting that both characters were given SCF figurines when Takara was doing that line back in the early 2000s.

    Robotkingdom still has power baser. But the shipping is rough. He has been hard to find especially the last few months I've found. I broke down and grabbed one along with a God armour reissue preorder to go along with the incoming Athena. Just waiting on that wonderful shipping email lolz

    Seller asks me to tell you to check your message and pay your balance, if that is something you want to do.

    sorry guys, I probably missing something:
    does it need to take off the roof of the car for transformation or it's just an option
    (in reviews there are few words about it, I think, but I didn't understand yes or no)

    From everything I have seen and read, it's optional,but makes transformation a lot easier.
