Energon Storm Jet Transformation Problem

Post by Downshift »

HELP!!!

I can't transform Storm Jet into Maximus torso! :mad: This guy's been giving me a headache! The problem is with his arms which seem not to fit the right places and the instructions won't do me any good!

Here's what you do.

Take Storm Jet and throw him in the trash. Then, you go down to your local toy department and pick up Barricade or...the other one. Take it up to the register. Give the nice cashier money.

Fact is, Storm Jet's crap.

I don't think Wal-Mart have branches in Europe, though I could be wrong...

As I recall my storm jet required a couple asprin and a lot of persistance while twisting random body parts.
How can I sign my name on the screen? Do I use paint or something?

Give them a couple of years and after they've purchased all of the land over here, they'll be setting their eyes upon Europe.

Actucally, upon further review, they seem to have a presence in Germany and The U.K.

Storm Jet can be a pain to transform and describing the transformation is even more of a pain. I'll try to take some pics tonight of my Storm Jet in main-body-gestalt mode and see if I can help you out.

On the artic trucks I see on the road every now and then, they do have the 'part of the asda-walmart family' on the back, so I spose its a matter of time before we see them.

Common problem with the Hasbro version. You have to unscrew the legs and fix it yourself. :D

Wal*Mart has outlets in Germany, but as far as I know, they don't sell Transformers.
Looking for a complete Energon Sky Shadow (from Superion Maximus).
Offering: Binaltech Hound, Swindle, Ravage (Corvette), Skids.
Can buy in stores: Robot Heroes Tigatron/Inferno, Ricochet/Predaking.

one funny thing

Post by Dennis »

one funny thing is that the owner of the shop where I got the storm jet with fawlty legs.
Is that the owner took an example of a bad storm jet and hasbros represantatives at the toy expo said that it was suposed to be so.

Yeah, and Universe Ultra Magnus' forearms are also supposed to be that way. :rolleyes:

But be extremely careful when doing this, as there are tiny parts, attached to the spring that will jump out as soon as you open it. It's best to open it inside a container of sorts so that it doesn't get lost.
