    The best I could manage back to Tiger mode. The transformation is a sort of tribute to the art of origami.
    But taming a tiger is never going to be easy.

    Kiki solution has improved the loose joints. In the end I must admit I like the figure more. Bot mode is amazing. I can't mess with it too much as this will be my son's xmas present (he won't transform it of course.)
    Shame about the paint chipping right from the box. I might ask for another left leg.

    Really hopeful that the upcoming Kingdom Voyager will be half as good as this.

    Oh damn Tigertron was that big? He's almost Dinobot size. I kinda regret not preordering it... i didnt really like MP Cheetor, and thought Tigertron was just a bigger version of it.

    What is that Megatron head after the transformation of Tigatron? Alternate head for MP BW Megatron?

    It's a "that thing from that one episode" accessory. It's a reference to the megatron head rubix cube

    Well Amiami is not helping me for a leg replacement. The chipping is glaring and awful, it really pisses me off to pay that much for figures that look like they were second handed ones !

    I'm requesting to send it back for full refund. If accepted I will order another one at Robot Kingdom, as they have always treated me well.

    Sometimes it's worth contacting every retailer to see if they've had a broken return, they might be able to sell (or give) you the leg you're missing. Worth a try! Might be cheaper than paying for return postage to AmiAmi.

    You could just paint it since the missing areas are pretty small. I do it with some of mine that chip from transforming. I also touched up a small area on this one that had some paint missing.

    I used a metallic green from Michaels and it matches really well to me. It may be less annoying than returning and reordering.

    Why hasn't Emgo or Wotafa reviewed this figure yet? Wotafa even had it in the background of one of his other videos so I know he has it. Although the same thing happened with Blackarachnia. She was in the background of a video but he never actually reviewed her as far as I know. I'm still holding out hope that I'm doing something wrong with the loose knees on mine. I want to see their reviews before I put Kiki on the joints.
