To tighten pegs there a couple things I've seen people try.

The one I prefer is a scrap of tissue over the peg, its totally reversible and cannot hurt the figure. But it'll have to be done every time the peg is pulled out.

The peg can also be coated in something, like super glue or clear nail polish. But thats not reversible, and some chemicals will harm the plastic. It could melt, change color, start flaking, stay soft or sticky.

Which of the coatings is the safest? Thanks in advance.

Clear nail polish. But dont get it on the bottom of the peg hole. That could prevent the peg from seating inside the peg hole all the way. Try your best to keep the coating only on the inner sides of the peg hole.

Keep a toothpick around you just in case you do end up having to immediately scrape some nail polish away from the bottom of the peg hole.

You can also use the clear nail polish on ball joints.

Just dont forget to let the coatings dry before you insert the peg/connect the ball joint.

That Dai Atlas does look very cool.

Very nice find, Countdown! I hope you'll be able to solve the peg-problem.

scratches chin. Hmm, are you sure thats a G1 dia atlas since there are a few high quality KO's of him floating around that are near indistinguishable from a real G1 version.

(only the box is different.)

It may be a ko, I am leaning towards ko now... I already broke it. The peg that holds him folded in half (for vehicle mode). I am going to guess that he was a ko, just not hq.

Hi, just got a complete Cybertron Demolisher for $3.2USD. Does any buddy knows that if the minicon gimmick (shooting Blackout) will still work if I plug Blackout in front of it?

Didn't they just add a peg hole to the key rather than altering the figure? If so minicon should work the same on any version of demolisher.

Deszaras · Post by **Deszaras** » Mon Dec 21, 2009 11:15 am

Well they removed the minicon at the last moment. {its present on the colour treatment sheet for the figure} so it is still compatible with any of the versions of the blackout minicon.

Thanks! I will try to find a Blackout, but it seems it's not easy to find one individually

......

Also got a brand new Movie Protoform OP for $8.3 USD, but may try to sell it for some minicons.....Any buddy interested?

(However I'm living in HK and YOU will pay the shipping!

Does anybody know anything about a G1 pin ball machine? I got one as a early christmas present. It a small table top, but I have never seen one. I'll post some pics tomorrow.

Early christmas for me. I bought this lot of 11 cybertron legend class with g1 tracks and weirdwolf.

When it arrived tracks had the backpack and 2 launcher and weirdwolf had Monzo!!

Congrats on the find Chulik! You are right a good deal... is a good deal. I have bought many tfs that I wouldn't normally buy because the price was right.... And, I like each and every one of them.

Will you post a pic of the bot transformed Chulik - when you get him that is?

Before I get Offshoot, may be Countdown you can take a look on this photo
