Keeping both tanks fully extended is how one of the Hasbro Mockup pictures has him. It makes hiom look very long legged.
As to turning the tanks, remember the Combiner Knee joint is dependent on the big peg bending backwards. Turnign the leg sideways will turn the Knee. You might be able to use one of the Sky Lynx/Dezaras leg joints, but that will significantly decrease the length of the thigh.

I agree with the more cons sentiment.
Luckily I have no emotional/nostalgic attachment to LionCaesar so I'm ok with most of this update/homage.
Although at this point I think I'm done with CW. We'll see.
Is the little falcon dude a new mold, or is it a re-purposed Micron?

Sky Lynx doesnt stay combined for me like Superion or Defensor, but let me go put him together. This is all mews to me. Mine came from BBTS in a case with Onslaught.

Most of them have garbage thigh joints, and the dino feet are too wide for the ankle cover on the combiner thighs. The shoulders don't lock in securely at all, and the plastic is squishy to the touch
I got the same case pack, and I have no issues with hips or joints. The plastic is squishy, but... what evs.Flashwave wrote:william-james88 wrote:Flashwave wrote:what QC issues?

So did mine, and he'll fall over or do the splits if you cough in another room

The Hop ratchets seem tight enough to me. They are certainly tighter than Superion. Here he is standing on a Mattress. And yes, Skydive had a mishap with a wing.
