Yet according to the photos the knees on mine are the wrong way round

Mine is fine. I'd have never known there's an issue

Sometimes I think people are finding problems for the sake of it.

I suppose it depends if that joint is the other way round on all the other releases of that mould.

Maybe the knees are thus meant to be this way round for the Manic Miner?

A non-straight leg variant... hmm. Hasbro probably would badge that as a play feature, you're right.

"Ooh me knees... I spent so long bent double down that mine, now I can't straighten up. Ooh ooh..."
Yes, I see that.

Okay so, we have two sets based on the exciting events that happen on the Senate Floor
So now where's our 50-Pack of Botbots as Congress?

On a side note I now have both sets.
Oddly, I absolutely love each one on its own, but not representing the characters they're intended to be.
I actually like this version of the siegeker mold. It loses all of the idiocy of trying to have an F-15 robot mode that's completely disconnected from it's nonsense tetrajet.
Both of "Shockwave's" modes are nonsense. It just works better, and the robot folded up underneath aren't as blatantly obvious, and blends better with the spaceship.
And I would very much like Orion repainted with a new head as Animated Universe Swindle.

So. He is called Nacelle, and his engines are buried deep in the fuselage and not contained in...well... Nacelles...This offends my sensibilities slightly. Karl |

Deadeye Dual Kaskade & Javelin I rather like these. I'm not familiar with the comic characters they represent, but they have interesting looking alt-modes and I kind of like the idea of them being rival "Annie Oakley" types. (Or it being a Quiet/Sniper Wolf duel kind of situation if you prefer). So of course it is an Amazon exclusive with the extra hassle that entails. Of course... Karl |

I'll be having Nova I think. I regret not getting Galaxy Prime.

It's a good figure. Better than the original Galaxy Prime.

I put a Pulse order for all 3 in at 6pm....
.... but I really don't want Nacelle as a Tetrajet, I hate the Chromia mould with a passion for being a CW limb gutted of the good bit and I have no connection with the two characters in the box.
So tonight just the Nova Prime order stands.
I need the Shattered Glass set tmw and War Dawn more

Kaskade and Javelin are nice characters, and we will be tempted by them - even if Kaskade is just another iteration of that same blasted female Transformer mold. Whilst it's cool that they're doing some IDW 2.0 deep cuts, though, it still irks me that they're continuing to overlook some of the bigger female comics-only characters like Aileron and Anode and Lug...
That Nova Prime also looks good, although I do wish they'd made a change to the smaller robot as well, just to be slightly different to the original Prime. I do want a Nova Prime character though, so may have to get this... just not right now. I can't swing for him *and* G2 Grimlock right now.
