The train mode for Getsuei is great. However..as Chuck mentioned in his review, while the track pieces can fit together, the gauges (or width of the tracks themselves) are different, so connecting them together and having them travel along the track is an impossibility. Also, All of Getsuei's wheels become problematic to align on the track, plus there is a piece that drags bottom, making it impossible to glide smoothly on the track.
In Robot mode he is cool. I dont mind the kibble, and the back flap I keep down (despite the instructions), just looks way better.
Leg Mode (thanks again Chuck for the shortcut transformation) still... The back seems unfinished seeing as how the wheel sections dont clip back together, nor do the back panels. The Back of his calf is just left split open. Not the neatest look, but we shall see as time goes on. I definitely prefer Shouki so far. I dont mind his extra train kibble in Robot mode. I prefer him to Getsuei.
Well, its going to be a long 5 months until Yukikaze comes out, and hopefully pre orders for MPG-04 Suiken should be revealed soon.

I'm sure people already knew this, but I think it's neat

Well, the sword hasn't been released yet, may not come untill the final train it, but we have a spot for it when it does

But... Raiden nor any of his components have ever had a sword?

Been forever since I've seen headmasters so I can't remember if he had one there or not, but I couldn't find any images. Either way, the train track have a big sword shaped storage spot under them. Thepeg holes are even contoured to match the shape. Maybe Takara decided he needed one

There's even a clear plastic piece for this prop-rod to plug into. But there's no prop rod included in the boxes.
What's the deal?

I believe some previous MP's came with a stand that can work for these using the extra piece they provided. You would need the stand from another MP however.

Specifically, I think the necessary component came with MP Dinobot, and maybe 1 or a couple other MP Beast Wars figures

also mp blackarachnia, v3 Starscream. technically, you can use the stock part of v2 megatron, but it won't plug into the tracks. seriously, I know others have said this, but jeeze has/tak/tomy rip that damn bandaid off and just start selling the display stands. stop letting bandai one-up you on this.
