I bought a leader class ROTF Prime the other day from ebay.. didn't come with instructions..
Does anyone know where I can get the instructions as a PDF file? I'm transforming him and I've hit a wall and can't figure out where to go from here.

You actually missed and mixed a few steps here. The instructions aren't that good at best, so I'll help you:
1) First, disconnect and move the arm covers out of the way
2) Near the elbows, there are two slots that the tabs under the windshield pieces fit into. However, they do not lock in place, so hold them in place as best as you can while doing the next step.
3) Now reconnect the covers over the arm, and make sure they move over the tabs. It's a bit fiddly as the tabs like to slide out.
Then, continue as normal.

You might want to be prepared to get frustrated at the energon swords.
I would actually just do exactly what JelZe said up there. That is a very good description on what to do at that stage of the transformation.

You have to make sure the arms are pointing the right way to expose the slots.

If you use the pegs and holes, the slots should point straight up.

Oh that's MUCH easier. He truly is a challenge to truckify though!
The first time I transformed him I knew where they had to go but didn't know how to get them there. It's very fiddly. Stay chilled.
