...and I have no idea what to think. The transformation is certainly elaborate, and the combined bot looks cool, but he won't stand straight! It's annoying the heck out of me. I have to tilt him forward so he won't fall backward, but this makes his head tilt down. In the few instances that I can find the balance between the two, his left leg dips. I have to make him stand completely straight, and such an articulated toy looks really STUPID in that pose. In short, I can transform him, but not play with or display him  |

Have you tried fixing it by tightening joints ? |

I can't find a way to tighten the ones that are causing the problem. Besides, the toy was hardly used by its previous owner. Many of the joints are still so tight I'm afraid they'll break. I don't think they can get much tighter |

I wondered about how the Railracer robot would be  Thanks for the mini-review. Can you post a picture later to see the problem? Maybe you can set him up on a spike up his a ss ;D How sad..... |

I'll see if I can find the time to get some pics up. I should also mention that the individual robot modes are quite disappointing. And in combined mode, the gray train (I forget names) only makes up a tiny insignificant piece of Railracer's stomach. The rest of the robot is made up from the other two trains, while the remainder of the gray train hangs off the back like a weird looking backpack. Not designed as well as it could have been. All the same, I was impressed that the weapons can attach to the trains and link them together. And I still like the way Railracer looks. I'll probably turn around and resell him now though |
