Mindwipe

Well, I jumped into this pretty late, but I have to add:

If you'd ask me who my favorite figure of 2010 was even a week ago, I'd have said Drift. Yeah, the character is on the edge between epic and fail, but you can't fault the toy. However, two days ago I finally got Generations Red Alert, and I'm in love. G1 Red was one of the few G1 toys that I remember having for sure when I was a kid (along with Ultra Magnus) and I've had my eye on the new toy for quite some time. Now that I own it, I'm not disappointed. He's great! The only downside is that I can't decide what to do with the supercharger... I don't like attaching it to the gun, but it doesn't really clip on anywhere else. Ah well. On the gun it goes!

I take it you don't have any of the previus versions of this mold.

The charger clips onto his back, same two slots it clips to in vehicle mode.

By the way the charger on the gun idea was a bad one since Sunstreaker.

And yes its a good mold. Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Punch/Counterpunch, and G2 Breakdown can attest to that.

I can't seem to get it to fit there. I think the holes that the supercharger clicked into are covered by the lightbar in the Generations version of the mold. The charger has four pegs, but because of the lightbar, you can only fit it into the two holes that are on the back of the car, which becomes his legs.

The holes that are in front of the lightbar are too close together for the charger to fit into.
