    With an off switch that allows you to transform it yourself, still doesn't sound fun?

    Why Ebay? He can be found cheap from regular etailers without the "did I get a KO?" risk.

    I've been on a twins kick lately. I just recently got both Tuner Skids and Skids and Mudflap icecream truck. I want to get their human alliance figures, but saw Mudflaps price and almost cried. I just need a deluxe rotf mudflap now. Prices aren't too bad on him.

    Don't expect a self transforming, decently painted 6 inch toy with details and proportions that actually provides an accurate representation of the characters to be $30-$50

    I did. There’s just no solidness to said tabs on mine. They give way very easily.

    I bought these on eBay, and they seem official. One from over seas, and the other from the US. 20190914_122629-1.jpg
    They both seem pretty legit, and are really badass!!

    Honestly, I really don't know what my ideal figure format would be, since each individual bot is so different.

    But my ideal optimus prime would be in mpm scale, it would utilize the cabs as its legs, along with the traditional movie optimus leg transformation. The back would be hollow to allow the transformable guns to store in the back when not in use. The guns would also have the option to allow u to apply the hand guard. The hands would be fully articulated with an extra set of interchangeable hands. I know a lot of high end toy companies do this, but IDK why not the masterpiece line. And the abs would be fake and interchangeable for the eventual dotm variant cause god knows no one is ever satisfied with prime's abs. EVER And finally, I would like the shoulders to be more broad to be able to accommodate a butterfly joint, and I'd also like the figure to have an ab crunch and toe bend.

    Tall order, I know, but it'd be nice. And I'm sorta wondering, but would it be possible to have an interchangeable hand which was magnetic which would allow the matrix to float above it, like in dotm. Just a thought

    found a QC problem with MPM Jazz...besides the paint chips which are unavoidable, his chest seems to be misassembled!

    ABF6B5BC-C992-4849-B6A4-ABCF236ECED0.jpeg misaligned pieces

    C00FA872-9828-4977-9F37-1A9D29039FF6.jpeg how it should be aligned

    50D6B3FA-BDD1-43FC-A0F3-520E0144FC2B.jpeg difference in how far his shoulder can move

    it should be a matter of forcing the pieces apart but I have very limited tools at my disposal (at college) and i’m scared that i’d break it. any advice?

    Hasbro's been kind of quiet with leaks for Studio Series 2020 (aside from the those listed from Takara Tomy nearly two months ago). No pics, no listings from Amazon or other sites, nothing. All we know is that we're yet to see Scrapper and Overload.
