They just feel so fragile as I'm doing it. Too many steps rely on force. And I've also noticed the downside to getting KOs and 3rd Parties is that joint quality isn't consistent (not that Hasbro is perfect) so I don't like to be reminded of that.

Yep. Hate transforming them, but they need to be able to, when I look at them in my display…even if it only happens one time. ;)

That?s why my TF HISS and AWE in vehicle mode replaced my 25th versions. I mean, robots in disguise, right?

Of course, I bought a second version of each to keep in robot mode, too.

That being said, Masterpiece Transformers look amazing. MP-36 clones, the Acoustic Wave Soundwave, 3rd party Arcees, Transform Element Optimus, and others look like they walked right out of the cartoon (and in a much better way than Super7's offerings for either Transformers or Joes). And they scale properly!

I like TFs and I buy one every once in awhile but I end of selling them because I don?t want to put in the time to remember how to transform each.

I took the plunge with CC so let's see how he is.

At worst, he'll eventually wind up hanging with Scarlett because I can't pass up her in any line.

Waiting on Scarlett, Destro, and Doc here ... but CC, SE, even Duke, look fantastic. Trying to stick to favorites only with this line.

Which hand did you use for the snake globe? It's got a little notch in it that I'm assuming is there for gripping purposes, but I'm not sure if I'm using the intended hand for the accessory.

One of his hands should have a peg on the palm that slots into that notch on the globe.
