WFC Prime question

Postby Pontimax 01 » Thu Aug 19, 2010 5:28 pm

I picked up WFC Prime a few days ago. Pretty good figure.

But I have to ask what's up with those flip up panels at his knees? It's like they are supposed to flip up to make his knees, kind of like the ROTF leader has panels there. But all the art I have seen and every transformed pic of him has those panels down.


So why are they there?

They're meant to fold up as tail lights for the vehicle mode.

It's FunPub. It's their specialty.

don't take that to mean I'm a killjoy just because I can be, though...

Was really designed for vehicle's tail lights but you can flip them up in the robot mode if you like. That's how I display him now.

Me too. I think it's kinda ugly in vehicle mode, so he just gets displayed in robot mode. I was actually surprised and impressed by him when I got him. Much better than I expected from what I've seen.

im actually a really big fan of his vehicle mode but i display him in robot mode with the knee pad things up.

as a side note idont know if you knew this but his weapon can attach in his arm instead of his hand to be more game accurate or alternatively you can mount it on his shoulder using the shorter tab.

Just curious has everyone that picked up this guy had some floppy legs on their Prime? I've gone through two and my friend told me his first one had the same problem.
