    I could be mistaken, but I think the shoulder covers are for the slots that are facing forward on the fixed version. The photos look like the shoulders are in the higher position. So, nothing for anyone who doesn't have or want to do the fix? :confused:

    They cover the head of the pin for people who don't want to do the fix. You can tell by the line I highlighted in the photo below. If it's high on the outside, low on the inside, it's the fixed shoulder. In Nonnef's picture, it's low on the outside and high on the inside.

    does anyone know when G-Works will reopen? they're nonnef's sole UK/European distributor and its impossible to order from nonnef themselves if you live in that territory. he's closed for 9 months now...

    just checked his twitter, last mention of the shop was in july, asking other uk retailers how theyre dealing with new VAT rules. theres a chance he'll return. otherwise his nonnef stock will just sit in his house.

    As suggested by @Mardroid, you can use Stackry :
    It worked well for me.

    Got my Galvatron set in yesterday and…its missing the chain. He is in contact with me so we should be able to figure it out.

    some folks didnt like the rectangular shape of the shoulder hole fillers but in my case, i had some minor scuffs from doing the shoulder swap fix and these covered that up, so it works for me

    the forearm fillers have a very loose tab for slotting into the cannon mode, i had to add some tape to improve the connection

    I wonder if Nonnef will do anything for Earthmode Lambo's?

    This is a heck of a time for him to not be able to color match.

    He confirmed on Twitter today that he is. Going be the same rotating wing parts but with a new Adapter to fit the new vehicle mode.

    Yeah it hurts. It prevented his Ironhide/ratchet feet from being the de facto 3rd party kit for those figures imho and the fact we never got a yellow siege spoiler kit for Tiger Track still stings.

    After reading Nonnef's Twitter it looks like the Slag kit is at least a head, horns, and sword. I'm not sure I will be in for that if I have to buy the head and everything to get what I really want (sword). A few extra parts is fine but I have a feeling the head will run up the cost on that set. Will have to wait and see what they do with it.

    If it all comes together I will get the Slag kit for the gray horns and a sword, but I feel Hasbro will redeco all the Dinobots at some point on their own ... I don't need the toy head.

    He only mentions the Lambo Adapter on Twitter?

    I have to break out my Siege Red Alert fins, I'm not sure it is same white as Kingdom Red Alert? But maybe it is close enough?

    The white on the Kingdom Red Alert looks close enough the the Siege spoiler white in my opinion. I'm guessing the adapters will just be black like the Galvatron kit was, which will actually look fine on the lambos (in my opinion) since they both have black accents already

    I don't have the Siege one so I can't say for sure, but from the pictures I've seen it looks like Kingdom Sideswipe's red is nearly the same shade, so he should be able to match it well enough.
