The loose ankle issue is actually due to Fans Toys using a screw with threads along the entire screw instead of it being a pin with threads only at the very end to secure it to the other side of the ankle (it's somewhat like the screw-pin situation for the chest pieces on their Thomas/Astrotrain). I unscrewed that joint and used a small hand drill to enlarge the hole of that flap which should have been able to spin freely along a pin instead of being threaded, thus causing the screw to loosen every time you transform the figure. Once the surgery is done the flap is loose and much easier to open in alt-mode, and more importantly, the ankle no longer loosen with every transformation. I have transformed mine 3-4 times since doing this and it has stayed tight. I found the auto-loosening ankle to be a major annoyance and was very happy to discover this fix.
For anyone who might want to make this modification but are skeptical, just disassemble that ankle joint and reassemble it but leave the flap out. This would have the same effect since the threaded hole in the flap is what's loosening the screw.
Very helpful thanks! I'll pin this post
His eyes just glow in this video. Almost looks like he’s got a dim LED in his head. Very well painted!!!
I know! It kept catching my attention
My gosh... there's some wizardry going on over there at FT HQ. How those cartoon accurate forearms could hold those long half-cylinders,... it's just pure magic.
Fans toys magic
Nice pick.
I don’t generally collect Fanstoys. Or even masterpiece scale anymore. But I had to get this chubby little bastard. Seaspray is such a unique design and altmode. I needed a toon version of him.
He's a fun little guy
Great review, TM. Agreed, the round head looks much better 🤘😁🤘
Thanks Kato
Bought mine yesterday. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching
No actual digs against Spin2 here, but I don't think I'll swap from the XTB since his metallic paint on the arms really pops.
That paint definitely stands out
I accidentally broke one of the fan blades on the 1.0 version so I’m glad glad I’m getting a replacement.
Damn that sucks, Was it fragile or just user error type of thing?
Little bit of both.
Damn
Somehow this cute, little guy reminds me of Caviar fish eggs:)
Lol
What’s up?
Top notch review touché sir.
I’m looking forward to your comparison video
Peace
Thanks man
I got him in last week and have felt like a kid again. I watched your video while transforming him, it's actually easy using the spudger. The water emblems are a pain to get to stick on him and the last few Fans Toys bots. I'm skipping the Vehicle emblem until I have some split ones. He looks great
I use regular stickers and they seem ok
@@TMReviews I'll break out that box. What do you think about the sloppy animated emblems?
On mine one of the two white tabs on the top of the Hovercraft broke. I'm surprised that the other one didn't break. Be wary, be very awary.
That sucks,.I have a particular way of getting those in and out but I didn't think they would break
Everyone needs to watch your video, people be transforming it wrong
What part are they tranforming wrong?
Thank you for this video. I have been on the fence on whether to get him (previously stated), as I already have XTBs, however, your review has changed my mind and I will be adding him to my ever growing collection. Thanks for the stellar review.
Thanks for watching
Definitely a clean figure 👌🏾
A first-rate review of the adorably cool Spindrift!
He really is adorable lol
@@TMReviews You're doing awesome work! 👍
Really looking forward to your versus video. You do a really good job on those verses. In my opinion you do the best job.
Wow, that means a lot. Thanks!
Nice!! I actually ordered this.. will be my first Fanstoys Figure. Time to see why everyone love Fanstoys. Great Review 😎
First fans toy!? Wow you will like it
@@TMReviews 😂 yup
Congrats Man. I picked up a few FTs figures as well. While I won't go all FAAANNSSSTTOOYYY, they are well made figures and do have a presence.
I am super happy I decided to wait on this character for the 2.0. mine should be coming soon and I can't wait to get it. I am a much bigger fan of this head sculpt then any of the past offerings. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching
Great review, thanks for the technical advice to adjust the head and foot base panels. I wasn’t interested in the figure at first but ordered it because Fanstoys usually excel. Looks like they’ve done it again
Yup, another hit
The figure looks absolutely beautiful!! Not sure why he didn't have Double jointed elbows though. Everything is perfect on this figure, with the exception of the articulation. Ratchets on such a small figure is amazing. But now with Takara and X-transbots giving us Butterfly joints and Abcrunch, etc. Fanstoys really does need to Step it up! As always great video review.
Fanstoys never disappoints me
Same, except spindrift 1.0 lol
What a great Seaspray. Fanstoys did a great job. Love the look of this figure. Very toon accurate.
Yup
I didn't order this guy at first, but recently when I saw Showz still had some up for order I did. I am now really looking forward to getting this figure. I think that Fans Toys has really been knocking the mini bots out of the park. I never bothered with the XTB version, so I am definitely looking forward to your vs video. As always TM, thank you for the excellent content.
Thanks man, ya it's worth picking up
You have gained my trust again
Lol thank you
I was fooled as well earlier :p
@@TMReviews was gonna buy him today, didn’t because the feet, went with Dunerider
Went with dunerider instead of spindrift? Confused...
@@bruhdiconwassi5074 What's wrong with the feet? I see no problem here. Why should you?
Great review. I am fine with FT's 1st release Seaspray.....
You watched it already?!
@@TMReviews Yes amazing 1.75 can do for a transformation review.
Lol true
Seaspray version 1 went to weight watchers
Hah
Anyone here ? Guess I’m first
Yup
@@TMReviews still watching, but going great so far! Waiting on the comparison to you know who lol
@@nephilim6001 of course, coming soon
