Well I guess I won't transform MP Megs.
 

The amount of pressure I had to apply to the arms was scaring the crap out of me, so I backed off. I've read too many stories of Megs going snappy-snap. Ah well, I was going to keep him in bot mode anyway.

Anyone else have issues with this guy?

I just decided to not even bother :) Wouldn't be the first time I left something in Robot mode and never transformed it.

I've transformed him. there are some tricky area's, yes, shoulders being one of them.

Re: Well I guess I won't transform MP Megs.
 

I never had any worries about breaking mine when I got him, just took me a ridiculously long time to do it. Would never do it again though after what I've heard, and the gun mode is nothing great, and if you have G1Megatron MP Megs just seems so weird as he's so big in your hands.

i intend to transform him at least once, but i tend to agree that if it feels like i'm applying too much stress, i'll stop.

but at that point i may examine the joints and see if i can do something about it.

I have probably transformed him like 50 times now. No problems. No breakage. There are useful videos on youtube that may help you. Read the instructions a few times and you will be fine.

When I pop his shoulders out, instead of pulling out on them, I push them down, they pop out easy. His neck is hard the first couple of times, but it loosens eventually. I also find the elbow joints are really tight, so just loosen the screws and it will be easier to move. It is like Transforming G1 Megs, just a little more involved. Well if there is ever any advice I can give just ask.

I've not yet had a chance to transform MP-05 Megatron. And yes, hearing stories and videoes online prevents me from doing this. Im actually thinking about losing the instruction manual; so If I ever did dedice to transform Megatron, I'd be screwing myself over...ha. XP

My brain hurts when I look at the instructions :rolleyes:

No guts no glory!

:D I'm pretty sure that will not be the thought in my mind if I broke it :)
