7:30 These wheel parts can be too tough to rotate, as the spring inside is too strong. To fix, undo the three screws at the bottom of each leg to get access to the spring, squish it a bit to remove some springiness and put back together, making sure to locate the spring properly. Mine's perfect now!
Sorry Fanstoys but this looks like it was rushed project. The weird mix of chrome and silver bothers me quite a bit. Looks like my Xtb version isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
Name: Hoist. Faction: Autobot. Function: Maintenance. Vehicle mode: Toyota Hilux tow truck. Motto:" You have to be rolling before you can be fighting."
Meet Hoist from the episode: Auto-Berserk. Synopsis: After having his logic and reason circuits damaged in battle, Red Alert feels rejected by the Autobots and allies himself with Starscream.
So..my thoughts. I appreciate the level of engineering that Fanstoys has done to separate this figure from a history mold mate in Trailbreaker, it's vastly different enough to separate him from his "peers" and their representations. For me though, it isn't enough to swap out. Now before you pull out the pitchforks, allow me to provide my critical opinion...note the word opinion. So it all could stem from my lack of excitement for this character. He's already a check in my collection with XTB. Pros to this figure with providing alternate heads, and the little having the back sensor be separate...great for removing a potential breakage. Like many who have been critical of the legs..I understand the dislike.and I'm with you...but again, it separates the figure instead of being another mimic. But it's this game that FT had with either being slavishing toonish or just hitting the cusp. There are some parts of the transformation that, to me, feel a little backwards from all their new releases this year, which I DO OWN, and that their engineering was refined to a less chaotic, blow up the figure, and more of an enjoyable experience. This one feels like a small step back. Finally, to me, this isn't reaching the cost..and I'm on the edge with typing that..because he comes with more than Outrider! But while I picked him up without a second thought and he did replace my XTB...I don't feel the same for this figure. To those who are excited for Hitch..I'm happy that you're happy. Alas, this is one pickup I won't be joining you with unless he starts hitting sale prices. Peace
Here Here. Most people are still in denial especially the xtransbots and Takara fans personally I only purchase fanstoys figures no one else can beat the quality
I recently canceled my pre-order after hesitance for a while, I'm a fanstoys fan, and I love most of your products, but this time I have to pass, I don't understand why you guys come up with the Toy color version instead of the toon looks. I will wait until you guys release the toon version same as sovereign and quietus. Thanks for your awesome products 👍�
