    This bugs me more than the waist. Any time I move the ankle, the bumper goes with it

    Ohhh, swapping the window "wings" really changes up the silhouette. I might have to give that a try next time I have Sideways out!

    Man, I'm still bummed I never got this guy. I just never wanted to pay what they were asking, and now the aftermarket prices are even more ridiculous.

    I now imagine a scene where they’re trying to sneak past something, but they think that standing up in gerwalk mode, taking a few steps, then plopping down into vehicle mode is a good way of sneaking. Kinda like how you try to sneak around while picking up a bush or something.

    Or like when Buzz and Woody were using the soda cup and the burger box to sneak into Pizza Planet. :lol 

    Ironhide: Watch where you’re going!
    Bumblebee: Sorry!

    Hadn't come on here for a while so I thought it was a good idea to see what I missed.

    Apparently, I missed a lot. However, I had a fun time catching up!

    That would be hilarious on the big screen. Reminds me of the scene in the 07 movie where they all turned into flashy cars all over Sam's front lawn. I really hope that going forward, we get actual fun humor in tf movies rather than the kind of stuff Bay tended to give us. Bee was a very big step in the right direction and I hope they stay on that track

    "What are you doing? This is my backyard, not a truck stop!"

    Really the entire sequence of the Autobots hiding while Sam searches for the glasses is hilarious.

    Fucking hell. Recieved Landmine today and was hyped, only to notice the hip socket is cracked :(  The seller didn’t even tell me. Maybe they didn’t notice, but it definitely isn’t shown in the photos—in fact there’s one picture where the hand is angled perfectly to cover the affected area...so idk. It’s just unfortunate. Even if I try to superglue it, I doubt it’ll hold together since it’s a frequently moved joint. Also, the figure was super dusty; easily fixable, but it should be common courtesy to clean figures before sales. I’ll contact the seller to ask for a partial refund or something instead of immediately giving negative feedback, but it’s not really about money. This was one of my favorite 2007 molds and I wanted a non-broken one.

    Anyone got an extra Landmine leg they don’t mind letting go of for a few bucks? :lol  :/
    But for real if you can help out, I’d be in your debt

    UPDATE: Recieved a full refund, seller was very kind and understanding. So I guess I got a free Landmine? But I still need a functional leg! Or just a new figure entirely.

    Dude, what the hell is wrong with you? That's not how you steal a meme.

    Try fiddling with it for a little while, at different angles and such. I thought it was a crap figure for half a day until I figured it out and now the torso is rock solid.
    Yeah that's way more annoying. Why not just have a tab?
    Booooo! Can you request a discount from the seller? Or a refund?
