do you have pics of before and after? I'm curious since I've had cracks on mine as well.

 

Sitting flush?, you mean it was sticking out?, in mine the pin is halfway all the way inside, not even close to being all the way to the top, if that makes any sense, both feet are like that so I figured this was the way it was supposed to be.

 

Sorry sutaseiba, don’t have the capability at the moment to post a pic, but to the naked eye it looks like it’s almost gone, you can see a faint line where the crack was, if you zoom in with a camera you can see that some parts of the crack have been melted together by the cement, not all of it though but at least it reinforces it. To the naked eye it just looks like there is barely anything there, just be careful that if you use too much cement it WILL damage your paint.
Edit : I think I was able to post one pic, it’s not great quality but better than nothing. That’s the one crack where it was really noticeable, but to the naked eye it’s almost not visible

 

Wow Shin (it looks like I keep replying to all your posts lol), I hadn’t seen these pics, I thought I had cracks, mine are only stress marks compared to yours, sorry man, I would’ve returned that one for sure if possible.

if you use the Testors thing while somehow making it so you can put pressure on the crack it will seal it right off and in this case you don’t have to worry about the paint, use as much as needed, that thing works wonders, been using it on TF since the original MP Starscream lol, I guess things don’t really change

 

Quick question Agent, did the pin in the ankle reached all the way to the top?, meaning all the way to where you put that screw on the pic?, thanks

 

thanks a lot for your response !

 

Yes, the pin should be slightly recessed. I misstated. The pinhead sat slightly above the hole on my first copy.

 

For my copy, the pin was about halfway through the ankle joint.

 

So I just got my fig (im in the middle of transforming it , Its my first mp )
I kinda have extremely small stress marks at the ends (they're near the edge )

I'll post pics as soon as I get him transformed .

Also I feel like im performing surgery while transforming him

 

So have you guys noticed that his intakes are pretty hard to connect to the wings ? (It feels like im stressing it) . I also have stress marks on that part

 

hi guys so i’ve finally gotten used to him but the biggest problem i’m facing is regarding the intakes . I feel like i’m bending the connection point when i tab them in . It just feels uncomfortable trying to connect the intakes with the backpack

 

The wing assembly should be slid outwards (or is it inwards?)

Either way, the notch should line up with the nub ....then use your pinky finger and stick it in the intake and press down on it, it'll click in place.

 

Can you take a pic back from the side? If the hinges aren’t tabbed in and parallel the intakes won’t tab in properly

 

my bad i figured out my problem , but anyways does it look fine now ?

 

so the main problems i have discovered after transforming him 2 times
stress marks (small)
the left hand doesn’t tab in
the right corner wingtip thing is loose(many reviewers had it loose)

and one of the stabilisers doesn’t sit flush (highlighted in green)

 

Yep!
You got it.

 

I could never get the intake on the left side(facing the back) to tab in. I think my wing assembly won't go any further inward when tabbing into the body(the little gray tab piece is too big or something?) and is causing it to not align properly

 

Do you any of you guys get a rattling sound when you shake the figure (as if somethings moving inside) ?

 

Hi Zane, quick question what was the problem you had?, I have the same issue on my right intake and wanna know how you managed to fix it; thanks for the reply.

 

It’s most likely the landing gear in his feet.
If he’s in vehicle mode, it could also be that his faceplate came off during transformation and is rattling around inside.
