Ive got diaclone Stack i can leave in robot too... they're different enough to warrant having both in robot mode i think.
MP Magnus, Gigantic Action Scorponok, Leader-Class LG07 Jetfire and Winter-Outfit Super Sonico. Somehow I think it was Scorponok that accounted for the big box ;)Quote:

Here's my review of MP-22 Ultra Magnus! Not without its flaws, but overall still a pretty damn amazing figure that has serious presence on display with the other MPs.

Hope you can check out the review :)
I've yet to see a screenshot of the arms sitting flush to the ramp as well as they do on the original G1 toy the closest I can get the MP to do it is by bending the elbow and it creates a very steep ramp and still isn't as good as the G1 toy. Even the stop motion masterpiece video they don't do it and all the reviews I've seen have yet to pull it off.
If this is possible can someone prove me wrong and post a picture of it?
The G1 Autobot vehicle cast has never looked so good!!

Every time somebody displays poor old red, they always have him in his paranoid state. Poor fella deserves a break! Gotta go show mine some love.
LOl yeah, but that gives a bit of variety to the figures on display using their accessories :) I always thought Red was a little bloody crazy anyway - I wish they made an MP Inferno to go with him!Quote:

Never heard of that before. Did you complain of their high shipping cost? Or error in your favour?Quote:

Very happy with him besides the fact that the box came with a massive hole in it. Unfortunately the office secretary took delivery without filing a damaged package claim.
Quite annoyed.

^ Ouch! :eek:
Perhaps someone else on this board isn't interested in keeping their box. <shrugs>
Looks like some scum bag kicked it. :(
Just out of interest, are Nippon Yasan's boxes marked "Handle With Care"? (cos HLJ's are)
No they arent. Ordered from them a few times and this is the first time this happened. Probably inevitable given how they pack it.Quote:

The shipping box is small enough to prevent the box from moving on the inside. So it wasnt loose or anything but theres a bit of empty space in there. All they had to do was scrunch up the news paper to create some actual padding and that probably would have been enough to prevent the damage.
Gonna email them about this and let them know to mark handle with care.
HLJ's box have those "air bags" on the top and bottom to stop it from moving, but the sides weren't protected any more than just fitting perfectly into the box. So any severe damage to the sides would have also damaged the side of MP22's box. I guess the "Handle With Care" labels were enough. They're really big w/ the "fragile" logo and is bilingual (Handle With Care/取扱注意). :o
We've all seen those handlers at the airport videos. Handle with care/Fragile sticker or not, to some people it makes zero difference.
Yup, those words are like part of matrix code they see it ever so often that they will not be so particular over your parcel.Quote:
