    I have the Ark and Starscream and there are various places where the two can connect using the 3mm clips/rails on the respective toys. I don't know what the 'official' combinations are, but the clips are obviously there at the front of Bumblebee's vehicle too.

    Something about a Spacebridge I think.

    On the front box-art the side-cannons in vehicle mode is shown to light up as light blue - does that actually happen with the toy? I've seen Protoman's video review of it and he hasn't shown it to do that.

    No it's more of an orangey colour not a blue. Blue would look better though I think. As it is the led isn't very bright and could stand to be stronger.
    But still an awesome toy
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    They're on the sides of the little gun turrets.

    Picked this toy up for $34-something at Big W's sale... umm... where are the missiles?? Should they be pre-loaded into the launchers? I think mine might have come without missiles (if so, I'd better go exchange it)

    The missiles are taped to the plastic tray that Roller is in.

    I like it, it's a cool looking chunky space ship that turns into a base/battle-platform with lights and sounds and comes with a little figure that turns into a kick-arse little exploratory drone.
    • At circa $35, it's a great buy and well worth the money.
    • At circa $60, it's quite simplistic and isn't great value for money.
