Push the plate down when it even and central holding the horns down with your finger tips then rotate the plate all the way to the left or the right it will stick then.
You can sometimes get them to stay down in the middle position by pressing and holding the button and then pushing the horns down and then releasing the button.

Though Krok is definitely the priority.

I managed to find Krok and Kup at a Walgreens and Krok is totally worth it. He's great, Kup too.
I've spent the last 2 months trying to find preceptor and topspin, I have 18 walgreens within 20 miles and it's all brainstorms and wave 2 so I finally said "save the gas, order them" I'll probably find both this week while shopping when I'm off because that's always what happens.
I can wait on Quake. I want him too but he's one I can wait and grab eventually.

They're pretty much 15.29-16.99 everywhere.
Each figure from BBTS comes out to be $18 a piece. So $1-2 more a figure. Not really a huge mark up. You'll spend way more than $5-10 in gas searching.

Nice job! The fusion cannon looks great with the black filled all the way in. The silver paint all over does wonders, even without any additional paint apps. Did you use a silver paint Sharpie pen for the body and a black Sharpie pen for the cannon?

and also checking, the closest TRU with the set in stock is 5 hours away, and the set is not available to be ordered online. And I have a 15% off coupon and actual money to buy it with now.

Yea I constantly see FM at a bunch of local TRUs. To my knowledge, they haven't yet discounted it either.

That tends to be the logic these days but the hunt is only secondary for me while running errands, meaning that I only go in the Toy section at Target only because I was getting a Frappe from Starbucks on my way to work this morning anyway...Or after I've grabbed about $80 in groceries from a Super Walmart will I venture off to their toy aisle to see what's there (usually nothing new though)
So to be honest, I've been getting most of my TF figures from BBTS, Amazon and HTS the last 8 months. But I will call out Online companies when they play these games. Plus I only want 4 of these (they can keep Kup) which is only $60. So $30 will be going in the tank in this case.

Yeah, TRU in the US is the absolute worst at discounting older toys. Case in point, One near my work still has a singe CW Ironhide and Mirage, priced at something ridiculous like $26, while the TR deluxes are at $19-$22. WTF!

So, as a potential future customizer, do you disassemble them before spray painting, or is there some other trick?

yeah. if you can remove the pins then do it. if not and its a case like megs where you can take most of it off and unscrew the legs then it should work.
this is what i did
anything you dont want to have paint put on cover it TIGHTLY!

I know that online ordering is a huge part of consumerism these days, but I just thought it would be nice if pretty much all stores, including TRU would communicate with one another as to what toys were in stock and exchange items. They would not have ot pay extra for shipping, just include them on the regular trucks as they come in and out.
I'm sure there are plenty of people right now that still want Fort Max, while they sit on shelves at other stores. Two of my local TRU's now have the Velocitron set (3 in one location, one at the other), while several of you still want it. Instead of allowing fans to be scalpers and redistribute the product, TRU should do it themselves (redistribute I mean...).
Also, I guess Easter is getting to be a bigger toy-selling Holiday than I ever thought. Many stores I go into look like the post-xmas war zone of depleted product and messy shelves. The same Target where I got Six Shot a few weeks back, and saw TR Voyager Prime & Megaton just got in stock a Voyager CW Silverbolt & Motormaster ???

He also provided instructions for how to do this:
It's fairly simple. You'll need to remove screws to separate Movie Breakaway's torso and remove the head. The latter was difficult despite the neck being on a mushroom joint that should slide right out; mine may have been stuck? Then once that's gone TR Throttle pretty much just plugs in as is. It's a loose fit for Throttle's head/Breakaway's neck, so I had to use some poster tack. Note that I've also removed Throttle's arms for now as it seems to let Breakaway's shoulders close more flush in vehicle mode (it seems to work but I'll check if there's much of a difference with them on).
I really love this mold. I'm glad they used it for such a nice color scheme (that slate blue!), and while Hot Shot's head looks nice on its own I'm glad Getaway can now have his own face.

Nicely done! I, of course, sold that version of Getaway a while back.

We do have a great customs forum you know. There is a stickied thread that is all about tips, tricks, and help. Feel free to start a thread if you have lots of specific questions too.
And Bee, I encourage you to start a thread for that nice looking Megatron you've painted. Take lots of pics, and go nuts! Might even make the round up.
EDIT: Also MagicDeath, I learned pin removal from watching vids on youtube. Lots of good ones with tips on the right tools and techniques too.

thats alright i dont mind.
the silver was from walmart. Rust Oleum and the black was some old paint my dad had. i just did the black on the fusion cannon and it turned from gloss to flat.
im not sure how to put the pins back in, maybe slowly hammer it.

Point is, we have a whole place to talk about stuff like that.

*quick online search*
No videos or reveals of Leader Overlord (check)
No Videos or reveals of the BBTS Cybertron Box Set (check)
...I do believe I am caught up for the moment on TR Leaders
Hopefully this weekend, maybe I can have time to get all 6 in Base Mode with Fort Max and see what my city looks like thus far.
Also I could totally see a 3rd use of this mold as Dai Atlas if they can modify the front of the plane to be a drill nose.

The head does look awesome, only problem is I'm not sure who I'd put it on. Can't think of a Deluxe or Voyager with a colour scheme that fits...

Color Scheme isn't great, but it looks great on both Skullsmasher and Twinferno.

RodimusConvoy, how did you put Skullsmasher's tail on his arm like that? I assume it's just friction.

Sorta/kinda. You know how you can have Skullsmasher hold his tail? That handle has a small opening that's the exact size of the Titan Master peg, so I pegged it into the TM peg that's on his forearm. It's not quite centered, so it's a little off, but it fits and stays on and looks cooler than just having him hold the tail.

He was the only one shown at toyfair if I'm not mistaken and wasn't there a article about what was coming in his wave. Wouldn't be surprising if he's the only one similar to Broadside being the only voyager in his wave. Just makes me believe more and more we're drawing closer to the end of Titans Return. Movie stuff is coming in full force and we got power of the Primes coming.
I think he's the final Titan master in that line just like how I think slugsinger and Misfire are the final deluxes with Trypticon and the last 2 unrevealed box sets being the last of Titans Return.
