Thought I'd never buy one of these K.O's, but since Hasbro/Takara never seem to want to reissue these, I bought one. Watch my rant and review of this classic Dinobot!
You need to compress the legs in when in robot form. The black articulation parts will insert into the lower parts of the legs. That's why it appears loose to you. I actually got this KO version as well from TEMU and, I must say, from owning the original genuine Swoop, I'm quite impressed with this KO/bootleg version. From a distance if just displaying in a showcase, it's very hard to tell the difference.
Great to see you back. I’d say you did really well here for the price. I know exactly what you mean about Hasbro reissuing the same figures over and over again. Even G1 Hound was done as a book’s style reissue but I suppose that was over 20 years ago at this point. It would be nice to see them do something that’s never been done before. I’m surprised they did Fortress Maximus a number of years ago.
Hey brother! Pretty much my collecting now is 3rd party and the occasional G1 but I do want that new masterpiece Jetfire. Hope to see some new reissues too!
I got the entire Dinobot set a few months back from ShowZ; for the price you cant go wrong, and the quality is pretty good. i have a video on my channel modding the head position on Grimlock.
Where did you get yours? I want and need a complete set of these for display. I tried Ebay and was given a refund because Ebay had discovered the seller from china could not provide a valid tracking number after three months of waiting. I would really love to get a complete set of these. I do not care if they are knock offs.
I get mine from Showz store. They are located in China but are very trustworthy and legit. I buy everything Transformers related there. Just Google, Showz toy store
You have to compress the legs to complete the transformation. That's why you're having issues.

The black upper parts of both legs should go down inside.
Agreed.
