Help with barricade from 2 pack, tabs not fitting

I got the barricade bumblebee 2 pack from wal-mart (they had tons). It was $16.88 or something, so you save a couple bucks.

With barricade it's already in robot mode, but it's not connected at the waist. It looks like the tabs on the waist should hook into the bottom of his chest, but the pegs are too big, so it doesn't connect at all. Is this just my figure having this problem, and is that because it's part of the wal-mart exclusive 2 pack?

I heard there's a problem with bumblebee when transforming him back to car mode. I figured this one was in robot mode already so maybe it wouldn't be broken like the single versions. Can anyone tell me what that problem was? So far it seems to transform fine.

I'll try to take pics of barricade, hopefully this isn't a problem. I might return the 2 pack and go with the single ones, I only saved like $2.

I don't think that they do snap in, the top is just supposed to rest on them.

There are actually two sets of tabs, and the larger ones go into the holes, with the smaller ones just being spacers.

Yeah, the whole tab doesn't go all the way in. It sort of hooks in.

Theres the 2 tabs on each side, basically the chest sits on them kind of at an angle

...yeah. Barricade gave me hell last night. Not a bad figure, but he's not the best.

It would be nice if his waist locked in, but no. It doesn't.

That's weird, I would think it'd be more sturdy if they actually went in, and the way the gap is it makes it look like it should fit all the way through, except that the tabs are too big to fit in.
