That video was awesome!

FansProject should be the new HasTak, they clearly know what they are doing and how to present their products.

I received my CC kit last night-

Very good so far, very good quality plastic used, great CLEAN paint job. <- take note hastak please.

Though there was one thing, with the chest piece, one of the screws popped out, and I wasn't manhandling it at all, wasn't doing anything dodgey, just taking the trailer apart like the instructions said. Popped it back in with a bit of force which was a little scary. I hope it doesn't fall out. Its not a typical pot rivet, i dont know how it stays in there. Would like a spare chest if I could just in case
Those also fearing that the chest piece might scratch magnus base figure, it doesn't grab on that tightly and fits around it nicely so it won't scratch it.

Just be aware to those who have the kit to be careful.

The leg pieces weren't hard to put on, you just have to sought of twist it in. Doesn't require force to put it in and the legs are very solid. Just be mindful of the moving part at the back, with common sense.

After playing it for a while, I think it is all very great, though I think it is missing the ultra magnus patent side missiles. I tried with my reissue magnus and it looks extremely great, but its not something I can leave reissue magnus without.
I wish they would make the addition maybe in the "to be continued" kits in the future of TF paralax. *cough* come on power master prime armor *cough*

on a side note, How many freaking twisty ties does the magnus vs skywarp pack have. god damn annoying! took like a good 10 minutes to get it out hastily.

Walky (Shortpacked! creator and an admin of tfwiki.net) gave City Commander a glowing review.

My best bud at uni is a reader of Shortpacked. He's more a Gundam fan not a transfan though so I never really mentioned City Commander to him. Then yesterday after reading the Shortpacked review he asked me if I've heard of City Commander and if I know where I can find him one.

Let me know if it pops out again. If it does please take a photo for me and I'll see what I can do.

You're not alone. Most people don't realise that the blue side pieces aren't actually responsible for keeping the waist armour on. You have to push Magnus' crotch into the "cup piece" with a little force, and it'll stay on very well.

When you've got some time tonight, sit down with your CCK & watch this

Thanks guys and DD too, he actually told me the same thing yesterday on MSN about pushing the armor with a little force. I went back home last night and tried and it clipped on perfectly! And sooo some pics of my City Commander!





I'm proud to say I fixed the kit all by myself without any help from the Boyfriend. But I did manage to get the gun stuck on his left hand and had to use a screw and hammer to get it out.
