    Kind of stress marked mine trying to stuff the head into the body cavity, that's what the note at the end is about. Just have to do it very slowl, which is kind of hard to do with the way he transforms.

    Are you talking about having to push the head it to collapse the spine? You should be able to avoid stressing the head during transformation by using the buttflap to pry his spine apart -- just pivot it 90 degrees and the hips should unlock.

    Good review. The swords and helmet are great. The new faces are alright...better than the original one, at least.

    Yes sir that works. For some reason though, mine is still super tight, so it's like, all or nothing pushiing it down. Now my BanzaiTron is totally smooth and works fine. Thanks my friend

    got mine yesterday, a must have set for those who like to upgrade their figures without perment damage to the figure itself. My only complaint is the loose head. great reveiw!

    Meh, not too stoked about the looseness or the detachable turret. Swords should have replaced the existing ones as originally designed. Not too stoked about the heads either, they look a bit cheap.

    I have this in my BBTS POL. I don't think I'll bother transforming it into tank mode since the main appeal is the bot mode.

    Actually, I got mine yesterday and its pretty nice in person. Only drawback I see is that you must be careful with the helemt when transforming him. The head wobble is not that much of a big deal.

    My Bludgeon is like that too, I have to use a lot of force.

    I was going to say after watching both videos, everything on yours seems a lot tighter than mitchsantona's.

    These are the kind of third party products I love, the ones that take already great figures and make them that much better and at a really awesome price. Needless to say after I watched these videos, I ordered one from TFSource.
