I got this figure/figures the other day but there is a problem with mine. When I try to transform them back into the ice cream truck Skid's head keeps popping up, the bonnet will not close properly over his head which spoils the look of the vehicle mode I think it's because there is a spring that (automorphs?) Skid's head so it pops out when transformed into robot but it's too springy and will not allow the bonnet to close! Has anyone else had this problem? Is there any way to fix it?

no i know what ur talking about.

pop out the front bumper

pull up the little white tabb

put it over the hood

then make sure it goes OVER the bumper when you put it back up, cause that what was the problem, i forgot how to fix it

if that doesnt work, make sure ur transforming it correctly

That latch is a real PITA! Just to add to the above post, I usually end up taking something skinny like a screw driver or paintbrush shaft and pushing the latch up from underneath. If you turn him over, there's a small rectangular hole under that area, if you push something into that you can push the latch up that way as well to hold the hood down.
