Update: ROTF Jetpower Optimus Prime (Buster)

Fiddle with the Buster Prime and Jetfire last 2 days... and now I believe when someone says he takes a day to figure out the transformation... Takes me hours to finally realised that the instructions are sometimes too detailed, and sometimes not detailed enough...

Anyway, for Jetfire, after a few times of transforming, it becomes easy. I also need to trim off some plastic so that the wings can be pushed in easier in jet mode...

For Buster OP, finally realised why people complained about the windows need to be popped off... and after I thought I saw signs of plastic stress on the red connector part, decide to make a small notch at the top of the slot where the red connector piece will be snapped in to transform into bot mode... Now it is easier to snap in the piece, and not affecting the Mech-Alive functions.


Jetpower Optimus Prime, Buster-2-pack-version!


Instructions are different from what seems to the intended transformations the designers wanted... example would be picture below shows Jetfire's cockpit halves can be repositioned towards the front more, to fit the vertical shoulder piece into a little hole inside...


For the back cab piece of Buster OP, one way can be like the picture below:


Or like this below:

And the OP looks a little better (with a more V-shape body due to the red pieces)... There are still more alternate ways and parts to be combined... like the feet... etc...
