Do u know that the Protector face plate u can pull it out and reinstall back again?
After u pull it out, do not plug in fully.... Leave some space for his "eyebrow"....
Then u try to fit the head again onto Rodimus....
U will see that the protector head will fit in better....

Edit: Nevermind. I just answered my own dumb question (:

Edit 2: Is Firebolt too big for Hot Rod to hold with his arm extended? It looks that way from the pictures.

That's a good question. I imagine Sidearm will be released separately again with silver chromed wings.

FansProject would like to thank you all for the feedback!!!
As requested by our Fans, we had added new extra bonus.....
-Additional pair of:
"Chromed dark color add-on wings and spoiler".

Hans wrote:I already have a Henkei Rodimus, but I'm keeping that intact, as he's a perfect opponent to Galvatron on the shelf. I just ordered the Battle in Space giftset for the Rodimus I'll be pairing with the Protector set. Thanks to these pictures I see they fit reasonably well together (although the colorscheme for that giftset Rodimus is terrible).

I'll probably give him the chrome wings from Sidearm to give him a little extra class and polish. I wonder how the chrome wings and Battle in Space Rodimus would look together on Protector

Also, I'll be placing him opposite D.I.A. Commander, as he had chrome details too. I bet they'll look cool together on the shelf

What, they aren't really there? The enemy is only an illusion?

That's not what illusive means.

Illusive means slippery or difficult to catch.

Funny, I thought that was being elusive...

Considering the engineering aptitude of these guys, how could such a major aesthetic flaw be overlooked (edit: the base figure's head visibility in combined mode). A simple small piece of plastic with a hinge at the bottom of the face sculpt could have done wonders for the set - something I hope Shadow Scyther remedies. It's an awesome set, no doubt. But what a glaring flaw. Kills me. I'm buying it, but it would have been nice to not have to buy an upgrade to the upgrade like the missile launchers add on set. Sigh... oh well.

Yeah I guess my bad spelling was showing.

But after "Causailty," I think it's best to go with what we think they meant.

Rodimus was never meant to have add-ons in the first place. I think the overall effect of the set is very effective.

SamusPrime wrote:Yes its good to be here is there any austrailan transfans here

Burn wrote:Ryan's showed us the visitor figures a couple of times and yes, we're most definitely around.

Forum goers however ... we seem few and far between, but we do have a sightings page!.

I'm probably the most notorious of the convicts here, second would be Elita-1.

As for the rest of them, I swear they hide or are just too ashamed to admit being in the same country as me.

Now if you're after some of these 3rd party projects, most of the guys from OzFormers tend to hit up Robotkingdom. Never used them myself but I think they're Asian based and that saves us on shipping.
