Went down to Suntec TRU after one of the bros reported TF Prime sightings. Sadly no Arcee or Screamer to be seen and Cliffjumper was pretty sparse. Opted to wait for Zombie Cliff.

Honestly waiting for Prime Soundwave and Airachnid and that's about it.

Anyone can offer any advice in terms of tightening loose joints. Been reading around and it seems that clear nail polish is one of the recommended ways. Can recommend any specific brands or other methods? Thanks.

Joints? For ball joints, u can coat a thin layer of super glue/ epoxy over the ball, and let it set. This will thicken the ball and get a better fit. (Nail polish works too for this)

yep, nail polish is usually used cause it's reversible(via nail polis remover)
But i believe most things that add to the thickness of a joint will work.
I used white glue for the pauldrons on my GF vector prime.

Hi guys, today while checking up the Leapfrog products for my kid, someone tags my shoulder and I turned around, I saw a friendly and familiar father kangaroo face: Automorpher with his baby kid in his pounch!

And the baby looked so tiny and cute and I gave him my congratulations and he replied: Brother, I have been father for almost 1 year!

hahaha

TF Prime Arcee and Bulkhead @ TRU Tampines, quite a few over there. Get over there before they're sold out.

Sun Dec 11, 2011 6:48 am

The OG opposite Rochor Center has quite a number of TFP Deluxes going for standard retail price. Arcee and Screamer have quite a number but the rest of the pegs are all Bumblebee. Held the Arcee in my hand for a LONG time before deciding against getting it. No love for the character whatsoever.

No Voyagers there though.

Congrats on your haul dude! May I ask if you have opened them already? Just would like to ask if their joints are ok / no loose null-ray or chest piece not locking properly?...Because they are really a good price, but saw on the internet, that KO versions of these two, in the same packaging, are actually available in China, so was bit hesitant about getting them.

Darn... there were knock offs? :-(

I suspected i got ripped when i 1st saw em...

The red on the packaging is very dull and "bleached" like it was sitting in the sun for 2 years... The bubble is also very poorly sealed on with loads of tape all over. Instructions are flawless though. I guess its a photocopied box then... but they even chromed the "25 years" logo.

(I keep all my tfs packaging, and none has becomed this "faded"...)

In box, the missiles are packaged upside down... and the null ray is also facing backwards in the box...

As for the figure... Its rather good... Though the null-rays fit in the sholders rather loose. There is a molding difference though, in the knees.

Its a confirmed KO... i did not know they existed in the universe packaging! Well $15's still a good deal, and even if they told me it was KO i would have bought it....

(They claimed it was the real thing)

Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:44 am

Thanks for the info, I had bought a Henkei KO starscream (not from them) before, so can understand its quality but it's still a good display piece / substitute for the real thing to complete the seeker collection

Hopefully U-toys is really unaware that these are KOs...although I find it hard to convince myself, when they can price it as such.
