    I will concede as a fake Transformers fan I got some of the names wrong. I was in a silly little spot mentally when making this video.
    The mistakes are being cut out via the UA-cam editor at 1:12 and 2:07. It might take a few hours to update. So if you see comments about it and don't hear me misname them that's what happened.
    Thank you everyone for letting me know of my mistake and I do apologize. I will try to be better about it next time and I appreciate you all🫡

    Of course it doesn't hold. You didn't connect it correctly. You need to insert the pegs of the arms under the chest on the holes first, then you need to place the back inside Longhaul's arms.

    I got this exact set last month, and I love it. For the price I think it's great. I'm not sure if you got unlucky or combined it incorrectly but mine is solid as a rock, I can shake it around and it doesnt fall apart like yours does. The buyer i got it off used the generic stock images of the toys this is a KO of so it showed paint detailing and accesories (individual guns for each constructicon) that arent actually present in the set but considering the price I really dont mind. I love these little guys

    If the peg between the waist connection is loose, you can dab some super glue on it to make it thicker, or you can sand the pegs to make them more loose if their too tight.

      It’s funny how quick KOs change. I got a Quick Change Devestator around 2008, and the parts reduction goofiness on that pretty much ruined everything but the combiner. However, I’ve gotten KOs in the last, well, decade, that are solid. I recently got this Devestator only upscale with die-cast. He holds together pretty well, with maybe the arm connections not as tight.

    First time watching any of your videos! Great review! The set looks neat, but not worth the $20! But I understand the challenges of building figures that small and on top of that squeezing so many features on them as to not have too many extra pieces as with the originals (love Hook's crane was made useful in combiner mode). But I feel pity for Long Haul! Seems to me he can't just get a decent enough design! The Combiner Wars design is the worst I've seen!
