    no problem. my anus was super tight the first time I transformed him too, so I know how it is. just have to study each part and see how to best move parts around to get it to look like the pictures - to me that's the best part, otherwise I'd get bored of the figure way quickly

    +1, I still find it to be an absolute joy to play with, despite the initial tightness and hip problems.

    Ok, so I haven't been on this thread since I got ahold of him, but if I don't have the correct gun handle(mine currently fits n neither of the combined modes hands) who is it better for me to contact? My retailer or fansproject? Apologies if this has been asked before.

    Have you put any springs in to help strengthen it? Or use lube when it squeaks?

    You should contact your retailer first.

    For some reason I thought these two posts should go together.

    WTF is going on in this thread? You guys need to move that convo into PM's and possibly exchange phone numbers.

    Just put Menasor together for the first time and it's a pain in the ass. I enjoy transforming Diesel from truck mode and vice versa, but that torso mode is something else altogether.

    Oh well, at least the final result is very good looking.

    Opened my Diesel last night and found a problem. Pretty big one since it means I can't combine him. I've contacted FansProject and BBTS to see if I can get the missing piece.

    You can still combine Menasor, just one arm will be a little loose. Make it the one NOT holding the sword (or gun, for that matter) and it should stay in place while you wait for the replacement.

    Actually, it should hold just fine even with the sword or gun, since Car Crash and T-Bone don't use that grey bar when they're the arms, yet will still hold the weapons alright. Other than the fact their heels don't really play nicely with the weapons, the sword especially. And the connectors do plug into Down Force/Last Chance fairly tightly anyway.

    Still, it may be wise to use the one that's missing the bar with Last Chance, as the peg at the bottom doesn't actually plug into anything on Down Force.
