    The dark red one is War In Pocket and the one with the battle sled is Hot Soldiers.

    And I'm afraid I put the others away.

    For those who own both MS Optimus V2 and MS Ironhide, which transformation do you find less fiddly?

    Ironhide. It's not even close. Optimus V2 transformation is a bit of mess. There's so little clearance to do anything. Ironhide's transformation is a breeze by MS standards for sure. The bicep slider is a bit tight, but that might just be mine.

    Oh and delivered in 10 days from ShowZ.

    Mine came in from ShowZ yesterday. I missed out on the pre-order by a couple days, so I think I was first in line for the regular order.

    I’ve never done Optimus but I did ironhide without instructions as I led a phone meeting.

    anyone else have this issue where the shoulders keep the back windows from properly folding fully? Doesn’t seem to matter what position the head is in or where I move the shoulders…

    I was trying to figure out what the point of the shoulder transformation step was, and then I realized it's to give the side panel hinges a place to go. SO well thought out.

    MS is killing it with their designs.
    So glad I made the decision to focus more on MS instead of Legends +

    Okay, now do all that while sitting on the toilet and I'll be really impressed.

    I actually had a hard time finding some of the lower leg flaps while watching a video guide, so that is actually impressive.

    To be fair it was a 1.5 hour meeting. :)  just pulled flaps and turned hinges where I could till it all flipped out and it kind of goes together intuitively, with the exception of the positioning of the feet in altmode. I wonder if going back to botmode is the same….we shall see at my next meeting. That might be my new background meeting thing since I haven’t transformed many of my ms bots…
