    So I finally cracked it with how loose his legs were and ripped them off! I put 3 layers of clear nail polish on the ball joins and then put the legs back on. Nice and tight now! I can pose him how I like without the need for blu-tac on his feet to stabilise him.

    Does anyone know if this is a QC problem or just a once off?

    I'm able to pose mine without the need for any modification or support assistance.



    No strings or blu tac or anything, just pure poseability.

    Thanks for the responses Gok and kaiden. Was a little worried cause I got plans to open mine up and display him loose in the cabinet. Yeah that's right... I'm gonna open up a sealed Transformer It's rare but it does happen

    He definitely takes a few attempts before you get the gist of it. Most of my initial problems stemmed from not knowing his legs lock in place and that the plate on his back sides back and forward for his various modes.

    Overall I think he looks a bit too simple in truck mode and a bit too complex in bot mode. Can't win :P

    Still, he looks bad ass on my bookshelf in his pose holding the gun in kill shot style

    once off. my ball joints are tight.

    i really dont like this Optimus. Its too small and the back part sticks out too much. he has child bearing hips and his breasts seem a bit too angled and small.

    im trying to compare him to his artwork/in game appearance and it just seems there are too many things off. his weapon is functional but is too weak. he needs his cannon and axe.

    just played with him a bit more and it is such a hassle transforming him into his alt mode. its like they forgot how to make the parts interlock during transformation. i was having trouble with keeping the crotch and legs together (especially the feet) while trying to get his arm to line up properly.

    it is great for $18.66 though.
