Most of which are already in stock elsewhere: Asda & Tescos have Warriors.

If I'd have known that I'd have checked Tesco at the weekend when I was in. I like the look of Combiner Force Starscream and Shockblast.

Most of which are already in stock elsewhere: Asda & Tescos have Warriors. Depends where you live really. The only Warriors around here are in TRU and Sainsbury and are from the "Blizzard Strike" or Windblade waves. Haven't been able to try the Tesco Extra yet mind you. One of them is on the other side of an...interesting...area from me, and the other is out of town and a considerable stomp away. Karl

I had Warrior Starscream in my hands in Asdaland but got distracted by the last box of RID BAKE YOUR OWN CHOCOLATE BISCUITS MIX so, um, bought that instead.

I wholeheartedly endorse this decision.
We demand photographs of the end product.

No delaying tactics!
Chaps, we need suggestions for a substitute rolling pin. What could Ralph use?

I am utterly unable to figure out how to turn Deployer Overload fully into a tank or to make him fire his balls.
This is a simple toy yet Ralph cannot do it. A new low.

1) Fold the tanks treads out through the bottom of the legs
2) Bend the upper legs 45° out to the sides at the hips. Bend the lower legs in 45° at the knee.
3) Fold the backpack containing the launcher down between his legs
4) Fold the gun off to the side 90°. This joint is very stiff an excessive force may be required.
5) Swing the arms in 90° at each shoulder so the outer sides of the fist face forwards and all the circle details face forward and the arms are straight down by the sides The shoulder consists of a ball joint, for articulation which is connected to a sideways folding joint and it's this later one that you're moving.
6) A Tab on the side of each knee fits into a slot on the piece sticking out the bottom of the wrist, which is now the sides of the tank
7) REALLY IMPORTANT wiggle the gun over so the little box on the side with the black spike poking out the bottom first over the rectangular indentation in the launcher.
8) Fold the feet, and the tank treads, back under the legs & arms. A slot on the other end of the tank treads meets a tab inside the shoulder joint.
9) Slide the cover up over his face
10) Place on a flat surface. Insert Cyclone (ball) minicon into launcher. Press button on gun. Retrieve minicon from some distance away.

I feel ashamed I needed assistance to transform a younger kiddy toy. I even had to check a youtube video. I could not for the life of me figure out how to fire my balls until Phil told me to lay on a flat surface. Now it works! The balls go for quite a distance!

I wouldn't feel ashamed at all. I routinely use instructions and youtube videos for transformations because these days I'm afraid of breaking the toys if I don't. With the Generations toys, Hasbro's grey on grey instructions are abysmal.

It's certainly instructions for Masterpieces and some Generations for me. Wreck Gar and Perceptor have never been transformed since the instructions went, they are just the opposite of intuitive. I feel the good Doc's pain.

This reminds me that Overload was a top character in the cartoon and I was after him at one point. I must keep a look out.
