Hello all,

So Generations Thrust is probably one of the most versatile Seekers out there in terms of options. You can stick his VTOL engines on his front or back wings, and you can keep his wings up or down in robot mode. My question is this: what do people prefer, generally?

I like the VTOLs on the front wings facing up, more like the G1 toy. I'm not really sure why the toy comes with them upside down on the back wings, or why the instructions show it like that. I'm not a fan (pardon the pun), but I'm curious if anyone else is.

In bot mode, I really like the look of the wings down, despite the instructions prompting me to fold them up. They don't restrict his arms as much this way, but I find that they do restrict his leg movement a bit, so I'm not really sold on this way (which admittedly, was copied from pictures of the Henkei toy). So, what do other owners of this figure prefer?

Thanks

Pretty much this. I display him with the engines on the wings.

Engines on the wings near the feet, wings down. Thats how I like it.

Give me the engines on the top wings, and wings up, myself.

yeah im with valandar. though sometimes i will pose thrust and the other cone heads dual wielding instead of attaching the nullrays to the arms.

I have my Thrust wings up, like the normal Seekers, with the engines attached. Resembles the BotCon toy more that way.

I put the thrusters on the tops of the main wings, and I have them up in robot mode. The wings get in the way of his arms too much when they're down.

I have fused my engines into the wings permanently so I have no choice but to display Thrust with the wings up.

Same here.

Sometimes up, sometimes down.

Lets see some comparison pics? up or down

Wings down, engines on the main wings facing forward so the decepticon logo is viewable facing right side up. A) His G1 anime appearances had him this way and B) He fits in better this way with the other two cone-head seekers his main wings are at the feet. The wings down configurations gives the cone-heads more distinction (alone with the cone heads, of course) from the the original seekers.
