Encore Kup: Does anyone else find the legs on this toy are loose when you transform him into his pick up form or where all Kups, g1 and reissue like that based on the weird design?

There isn't an Encore Kup, I assume you mean the Transformers Collection Targetmaster version that came with Wheelie?

Thats what I mean yes...technically it is an encore as an encore is a repeat or reissue, the collection one is a reissue of the g1 one and as this is the Japanese version I'd liken it to the encore stuff really....
Anyhow, your thoughts on the original question?

The legs on my (reissue) Kup seem okay... nothing too loose or anything.

My *KABOOM* G1 vintage *BLAM* Kup has slightly loose *FOOM* middley legs bits. *BOOM* always has. Not too *KABOOM* bad though.

Nope, Encore refers specifically to a line of Japanese reissues that ran from 2007 using boxes that are very similar to the original Japanese ones with some differences and it's own numbering system Before that we had the Transformers Collection which had boxes using art similar to that used in the Dreamwave comics. Before THAT there's an earlier range of Japnese reisuses done in the original boxes with the original numbers. Since there's no TFWiki page on it I'll tell you it featured Optimus Prime, Hot Rod, Ultra Magnus, Rodimus Prime, God Ginrai, Megatron, Sixshot and some more limited edition convention reissues. All three of these lines have been supported by limited edition toys and repaints from eHobby. Anyhow, your thoughts on the original question? I'll get Kup out and let you know. |

Its basically the hip area, where you pull them outward to make his legs look better and wider? When in truck mode they seem to be a tad loose and the dark green bit his Targetmaster gun can be stored doesn't rest nicely....are they all like that - even the originals as the design with two prongs sticking out with rear wheels underneath is a bit flimsy.
