Generations Trypticon toy fully revealed

[Ozgardian]

Just given the constant run around by ill informed staff that should have just told the truth instead of feeding me stories. For 2 months they kept feeding me lies until Toys R Us became my saviour, haven't looked back since. Plus that way more TF fans can purchase him, I don't mind waiting especially when I get great service like TRU gives!

Asking here as I don't know where else to ask.

Is there...a NEED to modify trypticon's ratchets?

I noticed the ratchets don't like going backwards (as in standing position to bringing up the knee, I swear there is slight resistance there) but move fine forwards and I always moved them with care, but are they THAT bad we need to open them up or can I just leave mine as is?

I know guides exist, I'm just curious to what people think or experienced?

Maybe...?

I blew a hip on one so got him replaced. At the first sign of trouble on the new one I cracked the hips open and modded them.

If I had to choose between modding or not modding I would choose to mod. The breakage is quick, comes out of nowhere, is irreparable, and can't be modded around if it happens.

I would love to see some more reviews about how other people are going and how widespread the issue is. Maybe in the review thread?
