I was just browsing the threads and found a photo by new Seibertronian vc410 which got me to searching the rest of the news and thread sections, finding more photos by alfes2010, and as I have yet to pick up a Transformers Prime Gaia Unicron, I never knew of this mode....

Unicron really does give good head! :grin:

I discovered a great configuration for Animated Jazz's weapons while fiddling with his weapons since his energy-chucks tend to fall out his hands a lot.

During transformation if you refrain from reversing the default position on his doors(from the position required for vehicle mode), and while turning into robot mode flip the position on his exhaust pipe holders you can use his pipes as claws.

For the Prime Kup/AM Ironhide mold, I really disliked how the hood of the truck was just left in the air as per the right transformation.

So I found a way to get it totally out of the way without putting any strain on any of the pieces.

I just detached the hood, flipped it around and reattached it and now it folds perfectly against his back without any part being strained.

You'd have found out this trick waaaaay sooner if you had asked me or saw any video reviews!

Partying late Kanrabat? And hey, at least you helped me make him taller by showing me his crotch could flip down.

My memory is a bit fuzzy, but I think I also mentioned the hood panel trick too at that time.
Also, for me, this is not too late for a Saturday night. Usually, I stay up until I fall uncunscious on the sofa. :/

I should learn to listen better then.

I just found out movie one leader megs' fusion cannon is on a slider so it can be center alligned a bit better though it still looks incredibly stupid if you don't take the other pod off his arm

It's the spring-loaded cannon on his left arm. The slider is for the intended fusion cannon mode in which you put the arms together, fold the hands out of the way, and slide the cannon so it's centered between the two arms. The slider itself is located in the very back of the cannon, and the hand, when folded can actually peg into the other arm:

He's right - check it out:

I didn't know the wrists connect to each other until I played around with this just now.
Be careful with the slider - there's nothing to stop it sliding right off.

Did anyone ever figure out if the spring shoulders on Beast Hunters Voyager Shockwave were there for something?

Those move to allow better outward movement for posing

Ok, thanks. And while I have you here, is there a way to have his tank cannon pointing upwards in tank mode without detaching it from his arm? I am having great difficulty posing the cannon properly.

I didn't realize Combiner Wars Silverbolt/Superion's gun could split into two until I saw pics of the Cyclonus remold.

Not something particularly fun to share with y'all, but it's something my Transformer could do that I never realized, so what the hey.

Dont know if the G1 version has it too but the Platinum version of Prdaking's Tantrum has a panel in back of his hind legs (which is easily missed) which can flip down and, creating a heel and giving some great support.
