hey simple question im thinking of buying a couple of sonic fighters and was wondering how the backpack goes on the figures back is it a gaping big hole on the figs bock or some kind of strap system ??

Hi Dax,

Hopefully someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I remember, the only hole is that of the figure's back screw.

The sound box has two panels - front and back. The back panel is held in place by the figure's back screw. The front panel (the one with the buttons) then screws on the box itself.

Here's an image I found online of Sonic Fighters Road Pig to give you an idea.

Sonic fighters backpacks attach just like any other backback. The talking battle commanders like stalker, overkill, etc have the backpack mounted via screwholes in the back of the figure.

Ah, thanks! I was merging the two (TBC/SF) assemblies together.

but even those were easy to take off...four screws on each corner then a few more on the inside directly into the back of the figure...no gaping hole but the backs are a little more flattened with no detail..not so much it ruins the figure in fact i prefer them without the packs

so they are assembled the same as regular joes the back screw hole acts as a housing for the backpack?

Yes. They backpacks just have the same tab as all the other backpacks. These backpacks are just A LOT more cumbersome. I display them with the backpacks sitting behind them. The 4 commander figures have 3 screws in the back of the figure. But both series 1 and 2 of sonic fighters use the tabs.

In fact, some of the Super-Sonic Fighters backpacks also serve as bases to stand on if you don't want to use them as backpacks (like Rock and Roll's cannon and I think Zap's is a small tank)

Yep. Dial-Tone, Lamprey, Dodger, and Road Pig's all look like computer terminals that you can have them using.

Look at road pig's third spin, where he's scratching his head and trying to figure out what to do with that computer terminal!
