just wondering coz dis neva happened to me before, I see on threads dat people suggesting otha ppl to refund/return/exchange their toys bak at da store wen they found a part missing/broken, it's just dat no one (dat I hav seen) actually said if they managed it

coz like with da main big retailers and everything like kmart, target, big w etc, they hav refund policies I think saying dat anything refunded has to be unopened, undamaged and sellable condition?? so I just wanna ask one of da guys who hav returned a toy, can they explain da situation coz I'm curious in case I eva need to do it (I'm luki so far... no major unfixable problems in all of my toys), did the ppl dere giv u lot of trouble?

Is recon ravage available in Australia? Also for my previous question, do the sisters also merge? Any idea why hasbro didn't reveal this in the previous manual's?

The articulation is restricted in some places and sometimes pieces can fall off (yet other pieces are really hard to remove, like the leg pieces... which gets tedious during toy play when doing "action transformations"). I typically like starting Magnus off with his armour on and have him go up against Hordes of Decepticons(TM), eventually wittling him down to the bare white robot inside. It's how I used to play with G1 Magnus as a kid too, eheheh.

I don't experience any of those issues as the legs are easy to put on and remove if you know the trick.

However although much of the articulation is indeed inherited from the base figure, it is restricted but not overly so to prevent dynamic poses.

It is stable and secure enough to play with even roughly if you have put on the armor properly.

However the BFG is its biggest weakness and a big problem if you want to play with it or even pose the figure with it. I put it aside because its too restrictive and heavy to do anything with. It is the biggest design flaw of the whole set.

Not yet (if at all)

Hasbro says yes they will.

Probably because they weren't sure if they'd release three bikes and didn't want to commit to doing so.

Back in the days of the RiD line, I bought a figure, palyed with it for less than a day before the little clip in the combining mechanism broke as I had bent it in a way which it wasn't supposed to...

My mum and I (as I was only 13 or so at the time) took it back to K-Mart and they took it back and allowed us to exchange it for a new one. It's probably a case-by-case thing as it would depend on the refunds staff's discretion.

Im thinking about grabbing the Transformers War Within Omnibus and the Beast Wars Omibus are they any good? I was hoping to get Transformers Premier Collection 1 but so hard to find

Yes, they're good, particularly the War Within one, since it's one of the best Transformers comic series of the past fifteen years.

Does anyone know where I can get instructions for the animated twins - Jetstorm and Jetfire?
I got them loose as part of a group lot. I managed to transform them from jet to robot when I first got them but now I can't reverse it... and I got no idea how to combine them into one robot.
Any help would be appreciated.

Don't think they are even on the Hasbro website. Try a video review on Youtube. That should help.
