I wonder this 3P add on kit is coming out (one with the wheels)...

 

He is awesome. Wish there were a modern Transmetal or Transmetal 2 Megatron to oppose him.

 

Is that a manger scene in the backgroun with Butters, a couple of random anime girls, and an almost nude Ivy?  

 

If anyone asks, It's suppose to represent Mother Nature, but basically, yeah (the DC Direct figure based on Alex Ross' design from "Justice".)

 

Does that fit better than the normal tab? Cause I can never seem to get his vehicle mode to stay together.

 

Its a pretty strong connection on my copy

 

Tried it on mine and it worked perfectly. Thanks so for the tip!

 

To me it just moves the cockpit too far back but that is just a preference thing.

 

POTP optimus optimal is great. Sadly, he doesnt have two swords. Unless, I buy DK-08 kit.

 

Had a chance to play around with the SDCC before selling it off, however, I just picked up this one yesterday.

Some advice for people having trouble getting his "flight" mode to peg in properly....

Connect the orange feet slots to the tabs on the smaller prime first. Notice how the the tabs have an angle to them; use those angles to get a proper connection first. Once the figure is pegged in on the orange feet nice and tight, then bend it forward and down onto the body of the "plane". The feet tabs will hold nice and secure while you allow the rest of the figure to bend properly until the rest of the slab makes contact with the tabs on the plane. When all is said and done, all connections will be rock solid.

Great figure.
DNA dk-08 on the way.

 

Anyone have any advice about tightening this dude's knees? Most of the other joints are fine, but his knees just don't feel nearly tight enough. They can't really hold up his weight in a lot of poses. I don't want to try stupid stuff like trying to disassemble the figure without knowing what I'm doing, so I don't ruin anything. They don't seem to be the type of joints that Future will do anything for, though. Anyone taken one of these apart, or know what kind of joints his knees use, and how to tighten them?

 

i just got this guy from my friend, and in a baggy with his guns and such were these parts

my friend can't recall what they are either, and i have no idea either. anyone know?

 

Those are Bow Ties for LEGO minifigs:
Lego New Flat Silver Minifigure Collar Bow Tie Piece | eBay

Those specifically look like the Flat Silver colored version that came with the Tin Man minifig from the LEGO Movie 2 Collectible Minifig wave:
71023-19: Tin Man

 

Oh thanks! I was like what is this, and that makes total sense now

 

are these tabs for anything at all?

 

suppose to tab into the feet of the big bot, in jet mode...SUPPOSE TO it doesn't work that well

 

No i'm talking about the longer tabs next to them. I dont really see what they do at all. it's the completely straight ones, not the angled onse that go into the feet in jet mode

 

I dig how now it’s possible to replicate how the chest guns worked in the
Cartoon, and how there’s no loud clicking when the joints move


One of the few gripes about this Mold
-Optimal Head needs a outside tool to pop out for Optimal Mode
-instructions not clear how to secure the guns on the backpack in Gorilla/ Jet Mode
-no swords for the smaller robot
-NO Beast Wars Megatron in this line for Primal to fight
