    I looked at it, but it's not that piece. It looks like the piece that connects the front part of the lower part of the grille is tweaked. I could take the pin out and try to twist it back or clearance it but I dont know how much force I would need. Not looking to break it lol

    Have any of you guys had some chipping with your earthrise figures? My hoist has lost a good amount from his face plate, and starscream, who I got two weeks ago now has one on his helmet

    They had Doubledealer too but I didn't pick him up because I didn't know if he was available or not.

    I would find this acceptable.
    However, I think Goldbug should still be a beetle, and the Runamuck mold could be Freeway or maybe Searchlight? That would seem more appropriate, me thinks. :)

    In Thursday, I was trying to get my job in Walgreens but I don't want to leave empty handed... So as you saw... I got Ironworks... And he is really fun being a modulator... And I even made a non-partsforming alt-mode of him.... As a throne.

    Kinda debating whether to get that one just for the axe and the better paint job. Though it would have been better if the axe had been red.

    I just found this review on Iron Works, and it barely counts as a review, it's more like a showcase episode of G1!!!
    Watch it, you'll see what I mean. It's the best 12 minutes you'll spend on YouTube today....

    Just something I slapped together real quick when I got my Alternate Reality Prime today. I realized the only Hot Rod figure I own is the old Titanium one <_< But it worked out ok. I'm not sure if I've seen anyone else do this with the ER trailer, but the hinges do allow you to fold it outward beyond the "official" way for the repair bays like the bed seen in this infamous death scene. 111135381_325188911974470_737347973456249534_n.jpg 67330682_626291174525550_188618058649042944_n.jpg

    Cartoon accuracy goes a wee bit far when they made them pink, but perhaps a tone between the Takara Barbie Pink and the Hasbro scarlett combined with the more defined chest logos and the Takara (wearing swimming shorts look) would be an excuse tomake a reissue as a autobot clone 2 pack.

    If you'd asked me though - I'd have rather liked to have a G2 (inspired) colour set - perhaps with the Autobot Clones in dark blue or green. Though Shattered glass colours would be OK too. I'm surprised that what with these guys (all 4 of them) getting upgrade kits that someone didn't makesomething to aid their combination. (as they can kinda almost - but not quite) combine as it is).

    Does anybody know why Micromaster Military Team Growl's chest can swivel back?
    It does not appear to be necessary for any of his transformations. I checked a few video reviews but none seem to call this feature out.

    Perhaps a future reuse will use this as part of transformation?

    What’s the time marker for when they discuss that in the video?
