Grrr, I hate who ever designed Alt Prime. If I find out who it was I'm going to spill their blood ... grrr grr grr
We decided, after a few days of deliberation, to open out BT-17 Black Convoy. As they are pretty hard to get, and the asking prce is already 3 times what I paid for it, we were going to keep him sealed, and get the Alt Black version - of the Kissplay one. Anyway being us we decided to free the toy.
During the photoshoot I revisited my pure hatred for the mold. Poor articulation and a bugger to transform. I also noted the wing mirror broke while unpackaging the toy (Warning to anyone who gets the figure).
When transforming back the pure "hatred of alt prime" was unleashed. The bugger is impossible to put back in truck mode. How anyone can do it is beyong me. The bonnet never fits - you'll see in all out picks of Alt Prime, that the bonnet is not down.
With Black Convoy you have the same problem, but magnified as the shoulders do hot fit correctly, so you cannot get the doors tofit. The toy is completely bowed and after 30 mins of attempting I want to throw the thing at a wall.
Steve is giving it a go now, though I hold out no hope.
I knew we should have left him in the box.
*rant over*

So I'm not the only one who gets annoyed with the BT's. Thankfully I just use the memories of seeing ALT Silverstreak demolished by a 4 year old when I need calming down due to their unnecessarily fiddly transformations which don't seem to work half the time.

Yeah...I know how you feel when I packed it away I had to transform it back to vehicle mode. I gave up with the bonnet and just left it loose.
