    So, today i found Tigatron in an italian toy shop. 31.99€, not so much compared to online price.

    Unfortunately, they had only 2 copies and i prepaid half of the decent one (that i was planning to keep MISB forever) and bought the one with a factory issue.

    Now i'm displaying a Tigatron who's right chest panel in beast mode looks like if someone melted it with a lighter without leaving any black burn marks, probably because when they injected the plastic in the cast they didn't inject enough of it.

    I would send pics but i'm too drunk, but i think you should know the white pussy can come with factory issues.

    Oh, btw, mine also has (a little) loose ankle joints (fixable with two drops of superglue) and his pupils are pointed in two different directions.

    The eye issue is not as severe as on my Dinobot copy (and i should be able to fix it in a second with a permanent marker) but it's still something you should consider.

    Good luck.

    P.s.

    I've found mine near Arezzo, in Tuscany, in a very small town in the countryside. Considering Italy usually gets the good stuff later than anyone else (if we ever get it), i suggest you guys to start looking for it if you live in my same country or if you're here on a holiday.

    Face it, Dinobot, you're obsolete technology! What can you do against me?

    Got Tracks yesterday and am having trouble getting the front fenders to stay connected in vehicle mode, they keep popping the connector creating a small gap between them and the hood. Any tips for getting these to stay firmly connected?

    I used some nail polish and covered the pegs with a layer of it, works perfectly with both road rage and tracks in alt mode

    check to see if the pin/rivet is inserted all the way, and use pliers(with padding) to tighten it if it isn't.
    and if that isn't enough or isn't the issue, use hot water or hot air to soften the plastic and bend it inwards.

    If you had done a search, there's been several dozens of posts, even threads about it when he came out. Overall, you need to push the pin in further, and if that doesn't do it, there's other things that can be done.


    Here's the one I did: Minor/Repaint: - Kingdom Tracks, fixing the legs and paint

    I'm considering getting core class Soundwave. I never could bring myself to get Netflix one because I have the Siege version and it just didn't seem worth it. But it would be kind of nice to have a G1 style cassette recorder figure, and he looks fun. Definitely the best-looking one of the G1 core class bots I've seen.

    If you want his alt-mode to be (relatively) size-accurate, or just want a small Soundwave, I’d say pick him up. Either way, he’s getting repacked in Legacy as a Wave 3 Core, and Netflix Soundwave’s also likely to get repacked in Wave 2 (though unlike Core Soundwave, we don’t know for sure if he’s Netflix Soundwave, all we know is it’s A Soundwave), so you have plenty of time to thing. Just have to warn you; the joints on mine were really tight. Not “gonna break” tight, but in the sense they were hard to move for such a little figure.
