    all accessories accounted for! magnets, led battery light and cap included. i made sure to ask my seller to confirm before shipping out! even got an extra bonus angry face somehow, while everyone else seems to have been always missing something. o_O 

    but something's wrong with my megatron. all the accessories don't seem to fit properly and i can't for the life of me figure out why. can anyone help??? :(

    I haven't seen anyone mention it, but Soundblaster's hands also fit Megatron so you can pull off a, "Youuuu! Smell my finger" pose.

    i'm having fun with the little LED fish light. think i'll be picking up some more off eBay. but i'm not sure how it works exactly. the inside tip of plastic cap for sure has something that completes the battery circuit, but not sure if the LED light is in the cap or the battery portion.

    also i found some minor QC issue on my megatron. there's a small gouge in the plastic on the back of the head with a chunk missing. and the hole for the cannon barrel is off centre, so isn't properly aligned straight with the base of the arm cannon and slightly to one side. :(

    Similar mark on the back of my copy's head. Not as "deep"? Maybe some sort of sprue mark? No arm cannon alignment issues though.

    Yeah it’s a sprue mark. They all have it, to varying degrees

    okay, thanks guys for the feedback. guess asking my retailer for a replacement back head would be no point now! :p 

    but i hope to hear back about the cannon barrel.

    yeah that was just the damaged that happened from a heavy handed worker bee.

    mine does not have a gouge or any blemish. but i can see the smooth mark from the blade.

    wow, transformed this bugger and it was intense. it was basically a bloody 3D jigsaw puzzle torture test. :confused:  there was so many moving pieces, tight tolerances, where you had to flex pieces to get around other parts, align and snap things together. the whole arm and legs ordeal was brutal. but the worse was the two flaps on the front black waist cover. they folded in fine when transforming to alt. but holy cow did i think i was going to break those flaps clean off or the whole waist cover trying to unfold them back out to get it back to bot. :mad:  thank goodness i didn't have the same waist cover pin problem that @Autobrat Leader had. :confused: 

    now i know why MS uses this flexy but unbreakable plastic they do. if not this thing would be in a million pieces by now! o_O  but the flexy plastic also adds to the struggle to align and snap things to fit properly.

    needless to say i will be keeping him in bot mode mostly from now on. in comparison, NA megs transformation was much more enjoyable with just enough complexity to make it interesting.

    Yeah those flaps fold in easily but are a bitch to get back out for some reason.
