    I believe they fixed it on Strafe and UW Movor. Or at least reduced the likelihood of it popping off.

    My UW Strafe head still has a tendency to pop off during transformation. It's annoying, but avoidable if you're verrrry careful. Still a great figure tho

    I want to acquire BlastOff, Wreckgar, Punch/Counterpunch, Nemesis Prime, and REPUGNUS, but my hopes aren't that high with Hasbro's Phenomenal distribution

    My Strafe seems to hold much better than my Blast off, but it might just be the different color plastic. I thought I remember someone saying Movor had a remolded piece.

    My Alpha Bravo, Off Road, Rook and Blast Off - the now spare limbs from the CW versions of the 86 combiners - form the limbs of my Galvatronus. It seemed the obvious thing to do with them!

    Kinda wasteful, it could be a limb for another combiner?

    That's been my plan all along!!!

    I want to see what combiner part comes with new shuttle Blast Off, but i'd potentially pay shipping for the HFG from your jet BO if you're just gonna trash it...
    Edit: meaning if POTP exclusive shuttle BO only comes with POTP "Prime Armor" combiner hands.

    Alpha Bravo and Offroad joined my Wreckers shelf and Blastoff is joining the Galvatronus team (Dreadwind, Blackwing and Windsweeper) while Rook is joining The Council of Worlds Combiner (Jazz representing Earth, Rook representing Cybertron, Elita representing Carcer, Moonracer representing Velocitron, Firestar representing Caminus and that little Optimal Optimus repaint of Apeface will represent Eukaris).

    Remain as Bruticus' left arm. I'm getting Shuttle Blast-off so I can mess around with the mold without UW Ruination/Baldigus missing a arm.

    We know from the leaked packaging it's a Prime Armor.

    You realize you’re in a thread for preordering blastoff right? So the only thing preventing you from getting him in particular is you and not distribution

    Spare limb for my unite warriors bruticus. Has the renderform head and I’ve renamed him quickslinger and given him bw quickstrikes personality

    he's a limb for Megascream with offroad, and the *Wing brothers. Bruticus' custom shuttle BO.... i dunno. i think at this point, i'll have a full custom combiner or something...

    * = for the life of me, Blackwind/blackwing/dreadwing/dreadwind will never be remembered in my eyes, like how i keep saying "shockwave" when i want "soundwave"......

    or you could donate it to someone like me, perhaps? *motions hands suggestively*

    That's good, might use that myself so I don't have two Blastoffs on the shelf (hate duplicates on the shelf.)

    Alpha Bravo as an arm is perfect for mounting a fusion cannon. I used my LG Galvatron's cannon)
