    Wow, okay. For a sec I thought I’d landed in the MP-45 thread. Looks like this stuff is going on here too.

    Do we need a cleanup on aisle MP44 now?

    Criticism is a thing, a thing that is both negative and positive at the same time.

    The point being made by @darwin, and it’s a really really really good one, is you can state your opinion in a less confrontational and attitude ridden way (as it’s been suggested to you several times).

    No one is trying to be your enemy so play nice or don’t play at all.

    Any posts that continue this will be deleted. Let’s discuss on topic in a polite way.

    Update: The previous time I had moved my mp-44 around, the lower knee rathcets had given out after around 3 weeks of play. It's been sitting on my bookshelf with megatron for a couple of weeks now. Yesterday, I pulled it off the shelf to let my brother in law play with it when i heared click click click click click click click. the lower knee ratchets work again! I thought "impossible" so i yanked it out of his hands and tried it. yep they're back??
    I guess good old OP just needed to regenerate.

    Yeah~! I'm not really sure but i'm very happy about it! Maybe the softer plastic has some viscoelastic properties that I don't understand and leaving it motionless has made it reconstitute itself for the time being...Or the fresh Seattle air caused the polymers to cross link and become more rigid! just kidding.
    I remember the left knee went out after a week and the right knee went after three. After multiple fearless actuations, I've decided both are working again. Time to leave him in a heroic pose and never touch him again. Schrodinger's knee.

    Do you have MP Ratchet? Maybe your toys come to life when you’re not there and Ratchet fixed Prime’s knees. :D 

    Interesting development though. I’ll have to see if my 44’s right knee behaves normally after leaving it alone for a few weeks.

    There happens to be a Black Mirror episode that features blocking people. I think the ep was called White Christmas.

    YIKES! This thread has fallen off the tracks. Maybe some MP-44 pics will get it back on track.
