Well I got Sideswipe from vehicle to robot but I am still having problems with transforming Bumblebee from robot to car mode. I am talking about the one with a weapon for his hand and not the one with shoulder cannons. Thanks for the help.

 

Follow the directions?

 

I tried that and they are hard to follow.

 

watch a video review.

 

They start the video reviews from car mode to robot, not the other way around.

 

Hahaha. Funny.

Cut it out.

Which part of him are you having trouble with, exactly? The gun arm, the legs, or the chest/nose piece? The chest is always the hardest part, actually.

The instructions for the ROTF figures are terrible. They actually make something so simple be so complicated. You're actually better off trying to find old TF07 instructions, or a YouTube video and trying to wing it.

The instructions are massive fail this time around...

 

The entire transformation process. I had the same problem with Blackout. Had the problem because Blackout and Bumblebee started as robot in the box and not in vehicle mode as majority of the toys start out with.

 

the concept camaro bumblebee mold is badly degraded. parts are warped, their sizes are off, and they don't fit together properly anymore. I have the concept camaro mold from the first movie line (evolution of a hero 2-pack version), and I can transform that in just a few seconds without any problem. getting the ROTF bumblebee transformed into either mode is a long, frustrating ordeal.

when he is successfully transformed into a car, the rear half pops apart at the slightest touch. robot mode? one leg is a different shape from the other due to the gears being screwed up.

 

They must of fixed the problem.

 

*facepalms* That'd piss me off. I can't deal with things like that. Drives me insane.

 

I really don't know what to tell you then. I usually just make the figure look like the picture...can't get much more simple than that.


Or you could just sell it and buy a Gravity Bot, you should be able to figure that one out.

 

So is there a video somewhere?

 

Seriously...what is your deal? Damn...

 

How do you mean?

The guy wanted help for an extremely broad question, thought I'd start with the basics. You know, like when you call a tech support line and the guy says "Is your computer plugged in?"

Then there's
"Follow the directions?" (Is your monitor turned on?)
"I tried that and they [pictures] are hard to follow." (What's a monitor?)

In other words, coming to a Transformers site asking how to transform something is like going to a Chess site, asking how to play chess...

 

The picture from the instructions are somewhat confusing.

 

Seriously, you can't transform him back? It took me less than an hour to transform him back to the vehicle mode

 

So how the hell do I do that?

 

Likewise if someone can't come to a TF site to ask questions about TF's where CAN they go?

Douche.

 

And I'm sure we've all appreciated your help in the matter. Thank you for your pearls of wisdom.

 

I wonder what happen if this guy gets Leader class Optimus Prime
