I've got all three they've released and so far they are 3/3 that are no fun to transform what so ever. This is typical FansProject, okay, but no where near great. I will never understand how people can consider them the best 3P company around![]()
Unfortunately, now that I've started this set I'll have to complete it so the money spent so far isn't a waste and just leave them combined.
95% of my online purchases come from BBTS, and while they have a great returns policy, there is no point in shipping it from Australia because of one crack. Once MM is in hand these guys will remain in combined mode due to the complete lack of interest I'll have in transforming them, so the crack wont be that big of an issue then.Agamemnon wrote:Try contacting the place you got him.

Not sure if any modding would be a good idea (at least for someone inexperienced like myself). Their small size, tight transformations, and general flimsiness leave very little room for changes. Any whittling could cause something to break...Gauntlet101010 wrote:So, how exactly does this crack happen? I thought it was due to putting the feet in the canopy, but it's just by turning?
Is there some kind of pin that can be whittled down?
That happened to me after the cracking canopy!mooncake623 wrote:Agreed non of these guys are fun to transform at all! I think I ripped off a side panel on T-Bone's leg while transforming it... luckly i just stuck it back in place and its fine. but I don't think it should have came off. I wasn't using much force....

Never touched the instructions, just seems that I didn't notice that one piece must've been about 0.1 of a millimeter out of line. There really seems to be zero room for error with these guys, one of the sacrifices of the small size.Autobot032 wrote:Arctorro wrote:Be very careful when turning Drag Strip's canopy!

Oh no... You followed the instructions, didn't you? >_< They're misprinted. There's a correct way to transform it. A video review that I can't find right now (I can't remember who did it) shows the correct way to transform him without breaking him.

You may well be right, I don't own him. I'm trying to avoid buying Code though, and not just because he appears to be wearing my Grandads slippers

If they hadn't got rid of the iconic carrier mode for that stupid macros thing then I'd agree completely. Just knowing that I can never transform him into a proper aircraft carrier kinda takes some of the fun out of itAgamemnon wrote:Arctorro wrote:Code?

I'd agree with you. I also think that Assaulter (Broadside) is fun to transform and fiddle with. I don't have the Powermaster homage, but I've read good things about him too. Most of the rest sit in displays for me.
Menasor will likely also sit in displays. This racing team reminds me why I don't collect Alternity.

They should have no problem sending you a replacement part without having you ship it back, which would not work for you living in Australia. At the very least see what they say. You should not have to live with that crack! lol

I transformed him to see what you were talking about. Noticed a small amount of rubbing, but nothing like the legs had a chunk gouged out. Maybe yours is a worsted case (which sucks), but it was so small on mine that I never noticed.Midnight_Fox wrote:Arctorro wrote:Code?

Code is the one I'm most careful to transform due to the windshield gouging out part of the leg the first I opened the canopy. Another case of everything has to be in the exact right position.

Also, side note: since it looks like Intimidator will be nearly as tall as Hercules (or, at any rate, much taller than FP Bruticus), I've decided to sell my FP Bruticus, EVEN THOUGH I just got the United release of ROTF Combaticons and the Crossfire 02SP - G1 coloration. Woe is me.

That's definitely not true. Have you seen the size of the cars?

Any comparisons at the moments are digibashes and should not be taken as concrete scale.
I'm unaware of any actual images comparing the gestalts.

A good point from a good sir.
