That is the button for the chest gimmick to release the next tape from storage, he can store 3 cassettes.
The image in number four are the plans for the spaceship from More Than Meets The Eye

Quite honestly... Looking at the image of Saber, I have two things to say:

1) The face scares me.

2) They missed the ball by not having Ultra Magnus represent that team. Because based on the shade of blue used, I personally feel that it best suits his Diaclone color scheme.

As much as I dislike the Alternity line, the quality is so much better than the recent Masterpiece cars....No hollow legs, real rubber tires, better paint application, etc

Honestly, I am with you. I loved the Convoy Corp. portion of the Alternity line because those cars are smexy. But I would never pose them on account that they have their own issues. However, I am super tempted to get Optimus (which is rare)... But decided to hold out for Fortress. His team is one I started liking.

Oh! And atop of happy new years from California... If they end up putting him out by the time I finally get married, can use what you have said as an excuse to get Fortress?

My bank account does.

Nooo....no... I got the white Alternity already, don't make me spend on another UM repaint, lol. Otherwise, I agree with you. That colors would've been perfect as Movie Preview/Diaclone UMagnus. TTomy is saving me some money by releasing as SS. Even with a different head, I just couldn't picture it as Star Saber.

Wonder if that means that if there is only one cassette in there it will flop around without the other 2 to keep it in its place? Or does his chest compartment increase in size with more tapes added.

Ha ha, mine too... I hope. Starting to like the team Fortress represents, and starting to think that he will become my favorite within the line. Then again, I already like the team he is supposed to represent.

Same here! I ended up getting "Ultla Magnus" some time after getting "Dai Atras." (Gotta love their occasional "Engrish." ) But yeah... The whole thing is a total miss for me as well. If it was Magnus, I would be on it since he would be an interesting piece. But with it being Saber, yeah... My money is going towards my current stuff getting graded.

It should be a spring loaded mechanism which pushes the tapes forward, so they should stay in place when there are less than three.

Check the takara toy show vid, it shows how it works.
