Thinking about it, you're right. It's a good transformation. It just has a few awkward parts to me. I always feel like I might break the back cape-thingy but it's really durable.

How the h*** do you get their heads out.

Sorry. I had to use that word because it's the only way i could express how their heads are nearly stuck in their body.

For me I'd have to say Movie IronHide. Going from truck to bot wasn't too bad. The next day going from bot to truck took over half an hour to figure out. The instructions are worthless and his waist section always seems like it doesn't quite want to fit back into truck mode. Add to that the fact that his waist feels weak, it's a little nerve wracking moving him around and worried you're gonna snap the teeny-tiny little connection.

I actually want to buy another IronHide just so I can play with the one I have without worrying about breaking it and not having one.

Deluxe Brawl. His arms never want to stay in place. Oh and for reference, Hell is not censored here.

Transformers cybertron G1 homage of smokescreen. the car door are always making me furious. And it´s a big pain to transform him into vehicle mode so he stays in robot mode.

WST Ravage.

(His legs & head keep popping off...)

As to Movie Ironhide...

Yeah - my Ironhide's waist sections aren't stuck together, so keep sliding apart and dropping the pin for his chest doodad. Really annoying. When I have time, I'm gonna do the delicate job of sticking it together without wrecking him. So, maybe in a year or so...

Shame though - I actually love the figure and Transformation. I like the two halves of the can thing - reminds me of G2 Clench.

RID Magnus is great, by the way. Took me a while to get the knack, but it was he who got me back into Transformers and collecting. A great piece of work - blew me away. He's just a bit 'different' is all.

I'm not sure who'd be hardest to Transform. My bloody Voyager Blackout maybe - not because he's at all tricky, but because of the automorph gimmick in the cockpit. It just won't align in copter mode, and that really annoys me. And the spring is causing strain to boot. He could have been great... Instead he's irritating.

New sale thread added with a range of Transformers including Masterpiece, Botcon, CHUG, RID, Movies etc.

Looking for MP-11T Thundercracker and MP-9 Rodimus v2 (Takara version with as few QC issues as possible).

Cybertron Metroplex is the hardest for me to transform, since I just can't bring myself to make him duck and cover for his Alt mode.

Same here, RiD Magnus was the first Transformer I had purchased in a LONG time. I would have bought Magnaboss, but I only saw it once, and didn't have enough money at that particular time.

For once i agree with you. Magnus IS hard.

You'll regret saying that. You DON'T want RID Magnus

I'm not exactly sure which one alot of my old figures (pre-RID except Megatron) I have no idea if its transformed right (technically thats a lie but before seeing a picture I had no Idea)due to me not having the instructions for most of them! Although I would have to say the most hardest to transform would definately be RID Megatron but that was without instructions, and I was only using pictures! but I still got them right. aside from that maybe it would be Cybertron Megatron.

For me, it's a tie between Alt Jazz(mine's arms always pop off) and Cybertron Crosswise(it's a bitch getting him back into car mode right).
No longer looking for RID Dreadwind, but I still need Smokejumper. I'm also in need of Mammoth Nemesis Prime's tail piece, as my figure lacks it. Send me a PM.
