Ugh, that's a shame since that's a tab issue you can't really fix. I was thinking more of the tabs were a little too big and didn't tab in all the way. I always heard you can sandpaper those kind down to make them fit, but this seems to be a case of the tabs/holes being in a different place then where they need to be exactly.

lol is right! Product placement?!?! On the box?!?! Duracell had to pay for that, but it didn't seem to drive production cost down. Or did it? :shock:

I already opened him up but lighting is bad in my room so any pics would look lousy. :lol:

But to those who might be concerned that he might be missing some accessories, dont worry. He comes complete with all his accessories. :)

Dude, any pic, nomatter the quality, would be great since it would be the very first in hand pics anyone has. Where did you procure this though inorder to get it so early?

Group buy at our local Transformers FB group. But most likely it will also be available later in retail like what happened with CW Ultra Magnus when I first posted. :)

BTW, the group buy went thru the local Hasbro distributor so everything is legit...lol.

Sideswipe was sooooo close to being the premier figure of the line, but he needed one last go-round with R&D that he didn't get. It's frustrating because he is close to perfect except for a couple of huge flaws that should have been caught before he went into production.

Jazz though...he's cool.

Image


What kind of flaws are we talking about? Loose joints, tabs won't fit or something like his legs won't hold his weight well (just as an example)? I can deal with the first two, but if it's a fundamental flaw in his design, like the last one, that may be a problem.

Two big ones for me, and one that seems to bother a lot of other people.

In robot mode, his chest and shoulders will not peg in properly. There is a chest plate with holes that should peg into both his chest and shoulders, but the shoulder pegs are not sturdy enough to hold everything in place when you start moving the figure's arms around. It's similar to the problem with Generations Blitzwing, and it is quite annoying.

In vehicle mode, his chest plate folds down, but it still hangs below the bottom of the car and keeps him from rolling properly, at least on my figure.

Another thing that a lot of people have complained about is the fact that his paint is not consistent across his parts. It's not obvious in robot mode, but in vehicle mode it is easy to see that the doors, roof, and hood are all different shades of red. It doesn't bother me that much, but it seems to really irk some reviewers.

If the first two flaws were not present, this would probably be the best of the RID Warriors, at least on par with Drift. As it is, he is still quite good with a very clever transformation, but the flaws are significant enough to really detract from the figure.

OMG was so excited to see this. I always wanted Trypticon, but it wasn't in the range my parents could afford when I was a kid (there were 4 of us). I saw the listing by accident really and Pre-ordered it that first night it was up. My holy grail list is getting smaller and smaller...only 3 more left now: Scorponok, Overlord, and Minerva (lets hope for some more reissues :) )

I got Legends Viper and Groove, as well as Deluxe Streetwise and Blades.
My Viper is much better qc wise than Powerglide, he actually holds together during transformation.

Blades is real nice. I like that Alpha Bravo mold, but it is much better as an actual someone, and not some throw away generic helicopter man.

Sometimes I think Silverbolt is so cool it's almost a shame to combine him. Can't wait for Cyclonus. Have fun CS. great haul.

Funky little haul today with a good story.

Jazz was a standard, see-him-grab-him find. Swipe was there, but... maybe see how Takara's paint looks? I dunno.
I never thought once about Tiny Titans, but I looked down and saw Bluestreak on the box. I grabbed a baggy and inspected to find a tiny clear window in the bag. Phhhhh, I'm gonna find Streak. Found him.
IT'S PROWL? Looks like Bluestreak to me.
BTW, these things are crap. Bad sculpts, sloopy paint. And they are tiny. Though, they could fit inside the new Ultra Magnus. :-? :lol:
Cliffjumper - I'm excited for these new minis. Walk into Family Dollar and find the toys. Hey, Cliff!
He's on a peg labeled $6.75 and a little Prime BH logo. Take him up front. Scan. Doesn't come up. Gal asks, you remember how much this was? I play nice. She enters 6.75, pauses... looks at me over her classes and says, deadpan, "three dollars".
*shrug* SURE!
Thanks lady! ;)^ :lol:
