Yeah, Optimus in white armor has never been a real Magnus IMO. It's just that, a white Optimus with an armor. As nostalgic as that is, it is not the real thing. All in one is the way to go. A TT Kup is sorely needed.
I have both of these figures, I didn't know Arcee was that much taller, then again Blackarachnia has been in alt mode for a while.
Got her today (I actually forgot I had her pre-ordered until I got the e-mail that I got charged for her). Played the car mode for a few minutes then transformed her to robot mode, took my time with it, took about an hour. There were a couple parts I got confused about (like the tail lights) but figured it out eventually. Haven't played with robot mode yet but she looks much better in person.
She won't! Also a heads up, one of our members (props to you buddy forgot your name ) about getting the back part of her neck lined up correctly with the back pack, then you are are fine.
FYI, you mistransformed the taillights though. The red part should be pointing up, like you can see below in my photos. This also shows how the neck should be clicked in completely. Maybe you meant my photos, @Fafnir72?
I think it was @Liampope who first mentioned it? I had a set of photos to show how certain parts should be transformed and I extended that with how the neck part should be clicked in. It's cool that we're all in here to share our enthusiasm for these toys, and tips and tricks to help each other.
Much appreciate the tip, yea the backpack was a lil troublesome for me as I would refer to online pics instead of watching a video. Thats an oof on my part but again thanks!
Those pictures were very helpful, got the backpack correct now. I'm impressed by how well she stands with such small feet. I need to try out some poses now, I've been mostly transforming her back and forth, it's a pretty quick transformation.
Seriously, like, what took you so long, man? Objectively speaking, she's quite an intuitive puzzle to fiddle with and pose, obviously.
Well I didn't have money for her at the time but I do now. I know I'm super late to getting her but hey better late then never right?
