I just discovered last night that DOTM Barricade has MechTech ports under the wheels on his shoulders. I knew there had to be another way to hold the gun besides his loose jointed hands.

I've never had much luck with that one. Yeah it connects, but the connection is about as tenuous as 1st movie deluxe Brawl's shoulder connectors. I don't know if I'm doin it wrong or what.

I dunno, I have both the original Generations release, and the later two-pack "cartoon accurate" release, and I've never had a problem with Nightstick popping off either one.

For me he doesn't pop off, he just doesnt...really go on in the first place :p There's no tight-enough fitting bit for him to peg in well.

I kinda wish the shot were a little closer, but that looks pretty spiffy!

Sorry, the shot was taken couple years ago and wasn't really for this purpose. I just remembered I have this picture.

Here's a close up

I just learned this, the goggles for my PRID Hot Shot can move up, making him look far less goofy.

Someone never saw the galleries or any of the many posts dedicated to the confusion involving Hot Shot's eyebrows-that-are-not-his-eyes, eh? :lol:

Nope. I haven't checked out the galleries for a bit and haven't seen any posts about that.

Please to be explaining.

DOTM voyager Ironhide's abdomen piece actually snaps down into place farther. It leaves a tab open which looks like it would tab into the piece that joins the two halves of the truck front end to secure it down but I've had no luck with that.

The blaster that comes with Cyberverse Arcee can be installed beneath the seat in alt mode giving her a raised exhaust.

I am also extremely surprised to see just how small Arcee is compared to Animated Prowl's Legend Class toy. She is real tiny, i was not expecting that.

Cyberverse Commander Hatchet's tail can be extended. The white nose cone on the jet has a pin joint where it bends down from the cockpit, but that pin is also on a little track that allows you to slide it towards the front of the cockpit, giving him an even longer tail.

2007 legends Ironhide can look up.

DOTM Voyager Sentinel Prime can flip out a tiny water cannon from the front of his alt mode

If his foot comes off his mech tech weapon makes an excellent crutch.

I can't remember if it's been posted before, but after looking at pictures all over the internets, a LOT of folks miss RotF leader Prime's wheels rotate back and his calf plates pop out. Looks much better this way. Definitely more screen accurate.

Of course he can, it's part of his transformation.

It's sad when the thing the Legends can do that the Voyager can't is something besides "fit through a toilet paper tube". >:oP

On the other hand, the Legend doesn't have knees, wrist or shoulder articulation. He also can't look sideways.

I've been following this thread on and off for a while now, found some interesting tidbits now and then... but something has always bothered me about it, although I couldn't quite figure out what. But it has just hit me!

How can people be posting things that they have never realised their Transformers can do? If they have never realised it, then they still don't know about it, and cannot be talking about it. Rather, these are things they have just realised.

As an example, until recently I never realised what bothered me about this thread, but having just realised what it was, I cannot say that anymore.
