    Looks like there’s some tab on the heel of the foot you need to rotate down

    One of his heel spurs is a tab that flips out to connect his feet together, making the altmode more stable.

    IF doesn’t do reissues sorry to say.

    Best bet is if they do a repaint. or Jinbao or whoever does an OSKO.

    Got their Ruination giftset from TFsource on their last sale really like the robot modes but i'm running into an issue with Armorhide. He's not coming together in alt/combined mode and I can't tell if his arms are meant to tab in or just sit under.

    There's slots on the sides of his torso but it seems like they're way too small to fit and I'm not comfortable forcing them in.

    Really liking this line, Cyclonus ordered already and I need to find a Bludgeon. I'll restrain to only one copy of each mold, would you go Bludgeon or Banzaitron?

    Go with their Banzaitron mold, it'll be half the price and half as likely to explode into several pieces as their Bludgeon. I have had both, and only the Iron Factory Banzaitron is still together in one piece, so definitely that version :)
