Classics 2.0/Universe Comments thread

I notice that there's now a Legends version of Silverbolt, Fireflight, Skydive and Air Raid. All we need is a Legends Slingshot for another complete set of Aerialbots to go with the Micromaster and Energon repaint ones.

Scored the Springer/Ratbat 2 pack on my trip out west. not a bad pair actually. Alwatys liked both molds in the Cybertron line, so am happy to see them bhack again. Springer was always a favourite character of mine.

Decided to use this thread instead of making a new one...

I'm wondering if anyone has had a problem with transforming their Henkei Sunstreaker?

I know you need to rotate the chest piece to reveal the head (see attached, step 17).

However, the chest piece would not rotate fully (i.e. piece becomes "slanted") despite the head being revealed properly all the way. I don't want to exert too much force lest I break something inside.

If this has happened to you, do you have a suggestion on how to fix it?

If this is an issue with the figure's quality, then I have to say I am rather disappointed, since I thought Henkei would be better...

Warning: Henkei Ironhide comes with wet paint on his roof

Be careful when you open him as this is not obvious at first and may be some figures not all.

While I was playing with it I noticed the roof 'sticky' and some small dust and hairs sticking to it as well as finger print marks

I forgot about this, it happens on my Universe Sideswipe. I think the figure was assembled with the head part placed to high in the reveal gears (in car mode). I'm going to take it apart for a closer look soon. I don't think it'll be too much trouble to fix but I haven't taken this figure apart before. Thanks for reminder.

same thing with my sunstreaker. you need to take apart the chest by unscrewing on four points on the back. its easy to realign the chest rotation and the head.

SE OP, is actually a step back (in terms of paint applications on the legs):


Left (old), right (new).


Left (old), right (new).

The new one is seriously lacking the silver + gun metal paints found on the old one...

I don't miss the yellow on forehead or the white circles on knees though.

oooh! miscoloured feet. I didn't realise that. Mine comes from Odie who painted his which gives it a very even look.
