Japanese Longarm is a BIG frustration.
I don't know if it's the design flaw of Longarm itself or the questionable quality of Japanese make.
Here's the problem. It is almost impossible to transform him back to truck mode. Parts keeps on falling apart. You can't squeeze in one part to the correct position without dislodging another part. Took me 4 to 5 hours just to try to keep him together in truck mode. Still can't perfect it.
The one and only time i've seen him in good truck mode was the first time he got out of the packaging. That's it.
Some parts are too tight, some are too loose, some are not even attached. Making it impossible to come together into the truck.
I think the US version could be better. I never had this kind of problem with US Movie toys.
For now, i'd say AVOID Japanese Longarm.
I don't know if this applies to other Japanese Movie toys as well.
