I just got him in the mail 2 day and i been struck at his damn arms all nite. i know u suppose 2 pull them out all the way so the chest can flip down but it feels like i goin 2 break them if i pull them out any further.

I wonder do any of you guys got any that might help cause it aint like i can go 2 the store and get another one if he might break apart on me




Just Being Random but i wish he was plentiful in the store cause eva since i got him i been having the urge 2 paint him 2 Samus Aran Suit(Metroid)

you pull out the wheels. then flip them up, it should flip up the doors too. then move the hands out of the way. then there you go.

Just look around the axles and make sure when you're pulling the hood down, it's not snagging on any stray plastic. I think I had problems with the shoulders constantly getting in the way.

And when successfuly transformed, the wheels actually move back and get "pinched" inwards when it's fully transformed; I found that manually pinching them myself made putting the hood down a lot easier.

Yeah, that's the worst part of the figure, but God, the leg automorph more than makes up for it.

i try that in the 1st pic but the chest keep gettin caught on the shoulders.

Aslo i 4got 2 add that i did manage 2 get his shoulders down but i can neva str8ing out his shoulders like talking about and he was stuck lookin like he trying 2 hugg somebody

Thanx Bran10 and Twee,

This is the best i can get his arms but i can live wit it 4 now. now i going 2 glus his head a lil bit cause it loose as hell but other then tat...i like the figure

you see th wheel and the door? fold that up, the door will go higher and then the shoulders should move back into place

XD

Doode, did joo look at the instructions at all or what???

You see the little tabs with ball sockets at the end, where the arm attaches to the car door section, you need to pull those out a little.
Mine took a little playing around with too, before working out how he transforms best, although it wasn't all night. But then again I did look at the instructions. Sorry, that wasn't meant to be as offensive as it sounds, it's supposed to be playful ^^

Edit: Wait wait wait! You're going to glue the head???
Doooode, head over to the Kitbash forums NOW, do not glue!

Pray a lot before transforming him. I had problems in both transformations.

If you do not pull his shoulders out all the way you can break the automorph. You will gently pull them out, once you get to the stop, you have to pull a little harder. They will then pop out a little further and the hood/chest will flip right down without issues.

When you are transformering him back to car, look behind his head. The center part of the hood can get caught on a catch and if you force it you will break the automorph. Just be sure that is flipped up before folding the hood/chest up.

good luck, have fun![/list]

here is the part was referring too:

Thanx Guys


I finally realize that i havent had his shoulders pull out all the way cause i thought at one time they was extended as far as they can go and if i pull them out any further i goin 2 snap his arms right off.

I was able 2 transforms he right and back 2 car mode with no problems.


I think Hasbro should have mad this toy a Voyager class instead of deluxe and i cant see 2 many kids beating their heads transforming him like talkin about

Pretty small for a voyager, but if he was a bit bigger, I'd go with that. I personally think the concept is the right size, though the classic Camaro version could have been bigger (and might have fixed the automorph hood issue in the process) though.

When Transforming him back to alt mode, make sure to attach his sword cannon between his legs before pretty much everything else, it'll save you a fair whack of effort later down the track.

And be gentle, he is a fragile figure.
