I just got Mirage and i caint get his weapon storage to work. The damn gun keeps poping out.Either the tab on the gun is to big or the slot were you put it is off. Does any one else have this problem or is my figure defective?

No that I think about it, I tried putting it in "storage" once and it didn't look or feel right so I gave up. I personally like keeping it attached to the front of his car mode to give his midsection a beefier look.

A kilt, you mean. :grin:

I never knew I could do that before. I'll have to try it sometime.

Damn hasbro strikes again. I can get it to stay but if you tap the gun a little it goes flying.

I'll have to check on mine when I get home. Honestly, he has to keep Soundwave covered at all times so he's never without his or Hot Rod's gun.

Mine is very tight but workable. My Mirage is the first run of them when they started showing up if that makes any difference. Perhaps its a mold difference?

Well mine isn't too bad, he can hold the weapon and stay posed if left by himself but it doesn't take much to break a pose.

I've got Hot Rod's (well, Roddimus) gun in the left hand right now. It looks like Mirage's too weak to hold it up, the shoulder's that loose. Ah, well. I've seen a ton of Mirage around. Maybe I'll get another one and turn the loose shoulder into a stunticon...

Put his gun in the left hand, it's lighter, and put Roddy's gun in the other.

Hey, is that you, my wife of mine? Making suggestions that make sense rather than letting me spend another $10 on a transformer? ;;)

It works better if you have the gun faceing up when in storage. Its still a bitch to get to stay but i did it. As long as he doesnt fall the gun will stay. And i think it looks better that way too.
