but just this morning, I relized that RID Magnus' 'wings' which turn into the upper car holding platform can be pulled out so they stay up and peg into the side panels

Peg in? Where? The best I've managed is resting them on the blue peg at the back.

oh my friend, you've scratched the surface of this extraawesome toy.

okay just in vehicle mode have his torso part seperate from trailer

take the wings and pull them up, they require some force. you shoudl hear them clicking into place, and then (just to be sure) gently push down make sure you have them in place

OK now assemble the trailer onto the figure, and one the actual trailer part there should be four pegs. designed for mounting the huge weapons emplacment.

now the front pegs are on tinsy tiny arches and right below the peg there is a very small slit. now look at the wing. there is a small rectangler thingy that will slide and fit into the slit

and not it should look very flush and neat

Don't feel bad, that gets overlooked a lot.

And I just discovered something new on my RotF Voyager Megatron: he has Mech Alive gears in his chest, that move when you turn his waist.

Yeah, even in the galleries!
So the front half tabs in but the back half still just rests on the blue bits? It's a shame it doesn't also peg somewhere but at least now the two halves are level and horizontal.

You'll never persuade me that this is an awesome toy. I can't get over the robot mode and its stupid legs and his inability to stand. I only got him for the combination.

Yes, unfortunetly

Yeah, that is the part that is really annoying for me

Look at the bottom left hand corner:

lol, that's a pretty lame gimmick. BTW, I love that pic in your sig, Mykltron.

My friend has a bunny. Her name is Plebby.

I looked up Plebby, and this came up:

Lol, weird.

As I travel between the US and Europe on a yearly basis, I don't see all of my toys all the time. Especially the packaging

Cybertron Jetfire/SkyShadow has a gerwalk mode.

You can make it look better by posing it better (and suspended rather than standing on its own legs).
FYI, I found this out for myself with my new SkyShadow figure.

Somehow it's become a trend to have every jet feature a gerwalk mode. I should try it with PCC Skyburst or his repaint Darkstream

just did, it only stands if the nose is pointed right at the ground, but it does work in a way.

If you pose him in a flying stance (with the feet pointing down more), and find a way to stand him on a show stand, he looks way better.
And the only real reason I bothered sharing is since this is supposed to be Jetfire (even though I doubt buy that), and his original figure did feature a gerwalk mode. Plus, I got to say, its cool to see a commercial airliner type of plane in a gerwalk mode.

And I don't understand the excitement over it. Didn't Jetfire only do it for a split second as he landed once in one episode?

Have people tried doing it with cars? Guess what guys: MP-10 has a gerwalk mode! Guess what guys: MP Grimlock has a gerwalk mode too!

rotf legends bumblebee has a rather good gercar mode:P
but the wierdest "gerwalk" mode has to be armada thrust, seeing as the legs are at the front...

Now imagine if these guys tried transforming in show/movie and got stuck/jammed in their gerwalk modes... let the chaos ensue!

xD

That actually would have made a hilarious episode of Transformers: Animated...

A gerwalk bike mode would look so effed.

Okay, now I GOTTA see what Prowl and Oil Slick look like in gerwalk...

G1 Dirge's guns fit into Generations Dirge's shoulders. This has cheered me right up!
