Re: Breaks and Tumbles

I just opened a Sideswipe reissue. To the best of my knowledge, it has not been dropped. But the clear ring holding the roof/windshield had shattered into at least three pieces.

Wow. That was nice of you to try to "fix" your Brother-in-Law. I wouldn't bring him to the hospital either. Too may questions. But if you showed them your toy, I am sure they would have understood. Still I would have broken more on him. 3 fingers seems like a slap on the wrist.

Re: Breaks and Tumbles

Look at my signature. I scored a micromaster Devastator off ebay a couple months back and the day I opened them, I broke the left leg peg on the hip my second time transforming him. I managed to fix it with a screw I had from a junker Downshift, and it actually works better than the original peg, but it still bothers me.

Re: Breaks and Tumbles

One of the stupidest things I've ever done was put a floating shelf right above my office door. Futurama figures are constantly commiting suicide.

As far as TFs go, I've been lucky.

Re: Breaks and Tumbles

I've had Titanium GIJOE Megatron take out many figures on multiple occasions. Few of my Transformers actually fell because the shelves were so packed up with figures that the domino effect meant they were all resting on each other. Usually it was only a couple of figures on the front row that would take a dive.

Another event had figures comitting suicide off the shelves when my father was hammering something on the outside of the house. They'd all nudge forward ever so slightly with each hit, and then eventually one would fall. Then another, and another.

I wasn't in the room, but I heard a crash and went running. Luckily nothing was broken.


One time Unicron himself took a dive off of my dresser ontp my bed when he was completely loaded up with Minicons.
