i just got Punch/Counterpunch from TFCC today and since this was my first encounter with this mold (no Sunstreaker or Sideswipe yet) i played around with it to figure out all the possibilities. I found a better use for the engine block than what the instructions suggest. In either Punch or Counterpunch form you can clip the engine onto his back like you would Sunstreaker's. This not only looks good on the figure but also hides the rubsign on his back.

Damn, your first encounter with the mold? Well that's one hell of a figure to start with. Also, nice Giratina in the background.

For Sunstreaker it goes vents up, for Sideswipe vents down for his jetpack. For P/CP... I keep the engine in the box! :lol:

I leave all three of mine in their boxes.

I have 4 of the mold and none of the engines attache to the gun. I just gave up on it.

This is how I'd use the engine if I had Punch / Counterpunch. Gotta cover up that extra head and details!

Me too! Not sure what I'll do for Red Alert. Probably try the gun thing.

I'm going to get killed for this, but the only version of that mold that the engines reliably attach to the gun is my G2 Sideswipe, and only because I carved *alot* of mold flash off.

Hows about you post some pics of that beauty? I saw pics of one, and it wasn't quite what I thought it would be.
