I transform the top of the wings the same way as you would on the standard MP11 mould. The kibble is still there but it ends up on his back and not his hips which cleans up the whole thigh area. The only downside is you can't store the missiles in robot mode but I'm OK with that.

Eh, seems like a hassle for something that's not a big deal.

How, if I may ask, did Hasbro botch Bluestreak? I was under the impression he was nigh identical to the Takara release.
It was the same mold but with way less the QC than their previous Prowl from what I've heard.

Whats wrong with Ironhide? If you are talking about the shoulders, there is now new evidence that it is Ratchet's which are misassembled.

yes the shoulders, dunno what evidence ur talking about, from the naked eye his shoulders are not assembled properly. Lame either way, ppl pay good hard earned money and u have to do a fix, ppl can try and justify how easy the fix is, i think that is Bs on takara, from a 3rd party i can see that but not from an offical company.

The evidence is the following:
1. There is a mark of L on the left side and R on the right side indicating that they are in the right spot.
2. Switching it around creates a gap that no longer makes he roof of the van fold flush against the rest of the car. the only way for there not to be a gap is if you keep ironhide the way he is assembled when first recieved.
So no, you dont have to do a fix and those that do end up witha gap in alt mode. I have read the reviews of those who did the fix and everyone found it unecessary with some switching it back to the original way.

First time I've heard of issues with Ironhide.
Bring it back around to Ramjet, BBTS just confirmed their shipment of "replacement parts" is on the way to my mailbox soon. So I can display him in jet mode.
Did just discover the upper wing transformation causes paint scraping white paint) near the joint... sadface.

Chrome flaking off? That was fast! That is
But the orange under chrome was for cost cutting. From just one plastic tree I suppose.

The head is half assed as well with the faux nosecone instead of the real one. I would have much preferred they do something with the real nosecone, along the lines of what fans did with the original Ramjet, Thrust and Dirge. Cartoon accuracy be damned! It's an OK concept, but when it gets in the way of functionality, common sense should kick in and do what's best for the toy. Especially when they do a faux nosecone for the head just so we can end up with a nosecone that sticks out between his legs. I don't remember that in the cartoon! If the length of the head and nosecone was too long, all they needed to do was something clever to collapse it instead of rotating the cockpit. Too many disappointments with Masterpiece toys over the past year!
Would you have preferred something along the lines of what they did with the coneheads for the Classics line? I still think thats the best portrayal of the coneheads yet.
Also, sorry for your dissapointments this year. Th chrome just started rubbing off for my Hot Rodimus and to my huge disapointment i realized that the plastic under is orange. whos bright idea was it to have orange under silver?! It will look like crap later.
