Some of you may remember me complaining Arcee had a floppy lower body last night on the call
Turns out there's a way to lock it in place which isn't in the instructions! Grrrr
Could Phil work out how to do this? NO!
Did the lower body come apart separating his Arcee into two bits? YES !!! :-(
Can Phil get it back together? NO !!!!!!!!!!!! :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

Arcee is back in one piece and successfully transformed into Bike Mode.
Ish.
Arcee is not a toy for Ralph. TF is a F***ing nightmare that makes Bulkhead look a stroll in the park

It's ok. As these Tough Economic Times cause me to cutt back on Hobby Stuff, this toy has come off my list.

No real interest in that one. I'm curious about the new SS86/T30 mashup though.
SS86/T30! We hubbers speak in secret codes.
I will ask Mrs P if she knows what a SS86/T30 mashup is.

Mrs Shocks sounds dangerous to me. I am quite surprised now you have two offspring that you have not been eaten.
Mrs P wonders if SS86/T30 is something to do with 'all those muscly men that have appeared on your desk'.
Pfftt. What a noob.

I am too But given they're doing the Studio Series 86 version and the BB Studio series version..... ..... is there any chance of Legacy Arcee going into the repaint machine and coming out as the pink NYCC Prime version? tfwiki.net/wiki/Arcee_(WFC)#First_Edition |

I hope this is a Headmaster though. If any characters need the gimmick, it's the Junior Headmasters.

A complete and unnecessary pain in the arse. The side panels just don't line up with where the legs naturally seem to want to be. I had to squish it all into a position where some things didn't quite want to be in order to get the tabs to match up and... well they don't even click in, they rest, with a little friction. As transf- conversions go, it's not the best. |

That Minerva does look very nice indeed. And that mold looks better as her than it does as Elita. I'll certainly be getting that. Disappointed she's not a Headmaster, of course, but glad to see that she's at least getting a figure.

Online store, somewhere in the far east. I don't know it's address, just seen several screenshots from it like the one in the link above. There was one for Velocitron Blurr that used someone's IDW custom as a placeholder image www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/idw-blurr-incoming.1232957/I believe the boxed Velocitron pics came from there that had no previously attributable source beyond the forum they were on If anyone can provide more info.... but I suspect users elsewhere are being very cagey about including the address of the place |

Disappointed she's not a Headmaster Something of an oversight given Minerva was the human's name, and not the name of the non-sentient robot she controlled. Martin |

That's exactly why the name Minerva needs to be dropped, or localized.
It does not work outside of it's very specific context.
