    Yup. My MP Rumble came w/ two of the same side piledrivers. Thankfully TakaraTOMY sent me replacements as well as an apology letter.

    Good to hear they sorted this out. Glad we haven't heard much about the Hasbro version having the same problem or it'd be a pain in the tailgate to replace..(on a second thought, the way the Hasbro pile drivers were packed kinda prevents factory workers from picking two of the same one.)

    A repaint of Armada Red Alert as Energon Prowl? Never knew that existed.

    Never realised we have another Aussie Transformer. The Tasmainian Kid. (sounds like a 80's WWF Wrestler)

    Toywise he's the same as BW Snarl, which was released in Australia. Although the mould looks nothing like a Tasmanian Devil... more like a generic marsupial thing... more like a Dunnart. :/ It's a nice toy though.

    As roller pointed out to me today. G1 Ultra Magnus' helmet head can combine with his blue chest piece to form a little jet vehicle of some sort. I thought it was just a joke, but then we tried it... crude but yup apparently it does.

    Wanted AM partner Vanguard, Myclones Dirge, G1 Victory Leo, e-hobby Dark scream ( the black version), e-hobby Magnificus
    Parts- AM partner Basher-side guns, G1 Actionmaster Elite Windmill's blades[I][B]

    It's a carry over mode from Powered Convoy. The PC release came with small wheels on his chest piece too

    I worked that out a few years back but I didn't see it as a jet, more like storage for the helmet while in trailer mode. I could tell there was a seat there for a diaclone guy so at most, I figured it was a gun battery.
