    I know the automorph gimmick is frustrating. I have several movie 1 Primes and the feet work better on some than others.

    That being said, the first most obvious question would be- you are transforming the feet by fully rotating the bumper/grill all the way down, right?

    Assuming you are doing that, all I can tell you is I have had luck forcing the toes and bumpers to realign when the internal gears were obviously out of whack. There was no special trick to it, just careful brute force. I certainly can't guarantee you won't break something- but I haven't.

    Maybe somebody knows a better way.

    hounustly i prefer him too but i like messing about with leader prime even though ive got rotf leader prime the thing is leader 2 primes takes to long to transform. im geting battleblades prime because it more in scale to what tfs i have and more features (matrix, guns, sword & acurate transformation still)
