    Didn't go all the way back to check if anyone else had posted this but Dianauts fit just fine in the maintenance mechs that come with Engineer and Heikew.

    Hopefully they hang around awhile, as I got a lot of stuff coming up right now.

    I finally got mine a few days ago. Does it bother anyone else how much bigger his head is when compared to say, the Hasbro Insecticons as an example?

    Just got mine yesterday and yes... It bothers me a lot but mostly Huffer. Stupidly short legs, tiny arms and a huge head.

    I'm going to try mod him to make it bearable but disappointed.

    If they want toon accuracy at least use the toon as a reference and not those crappy drawings that people keep posting.

    I'm looking for ideas too.

    Yeah the head is a little too large, but he does sometimes have a pretty big noggin in the cartoon:

    My biggest complaint is that he doesn't come with a weapon. The torch would be fine as a bonus item but it shouldn't be the only accessory, and it's Brawn's anyway:

    That and the fact that you can't use the knee bend and the thigh swivel at the same time. Still a good figure though IMO.

    I'm waiting for BBTS to get this guy and their Pipes back in stock. Does anybody have any comparison pics of this with Magic Square's Huffer?

    Are their fists 5mm? If so nonnef.com has a legends weapons pack for $10 that has a gun for Huffer among its contents

    Nah, they're like 4mm or close to it. And then they come with the little Diaclone suits that include a bunch of cool 3mm weapons. LOL

    I guess it wouldn't be too hard to shave the flat peg on one of those Nonnef pieces down to 4mm. I have them in black and gray already.

    Good to know, I ordered Huffer and pipes and have the fun set as well so I might need to shave down the peg

    No, they're smaller. But just take about a half hour of shaving away at the handle of one of those guns with a knife, and Huffer gets a gun. That's what I did for mine.

    Idk. I just left Pipes with his two cannons.

    Edit:
    I just checked some clips, and yeah, he only has his two arm cannons.
