No it's not, there is no locking mechanism in the launcher.

Oh sc@p!Mine is stuck and wont detach.
There are however two grooves on either side of the missle.

That line up to the whatchamacallits inside the laucher. Did you line those up when inserting the missle or just jam it in?

Other than that no locking mechanism

The Prowl one would be a fun way to distinguish my Hasbro and Takara versions, may look to pick that up.

I always thought Prowl was the security specialist not a military strategist.

The Security Officer is the lovable paranoid Red Alert. Though Prowl was Security Officer once, during the Machine Wars line.

Licensing would still have been a problem though. Here's the loophole though: by outsourcing to Ocean Designs who may already have the proper licenses (or have an easier time getting one), Hasbro has no need to acquire a separate license for their own sticker sheets.

well yeah. heavily liscenced stickers like those, but the average MP would just need regular 'ol goofy 80's designs.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Licensing would still have been a problem though.

Damn it, now I need a second Prowl. I'd buy these sheets for the Wheeljack set alone. Hasbro finally beat Reprolabels at their own game.

actually... the stickered prowl in my pic is reprolabel'd. which after comparing the two stickers sets, RL wins hands down in my opinion.Trikeboy wrote:Damn it, now I need a second Prowl. I'd buy these sheets for the Wheeljack set alone. Hasbro finally beat Reprolabels at their own game.

I'm not sure I'd jump to that conclusion as we don't really know the quality of these stickers.
