![5 SIMPLE Mods You Should Do To Your LEGO Optimus Prime Transformers Set [10302] [4K]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/z-J6LGn--cY/mqdefault.jpg)
That's why you should follow and pay close attention to the instructions, just saying. As always your builds and opinions are greatly appreciated.
Yea my dad told me to pay attention and it's was great
So what you're telling us is Optimus is getting old and having hip problems...seems legit. 🤣
Lol
I would have never suspected that adding that little pin makes such a huge difference in the stability of these joint pieces!
That 2x4 slope piece comes off a lot for me when transforming causing the torso to come off. Seems like it needs a better structure than one piece holding the two halves together..
Regarding the black pins in the legs, you would assume you'd notice the mistake when you keep some of these after building (I did), but as they are generally supplied as spare parts they can be easily discarded after the build
Using the 1x3s for the back of the waist is genius!
Thank you for the subtitle and explanation! You always are perfect. Respect.
The main issue I've been having with mine is that the waist swivel comes apart during transformation
Thanks for the vid. Just got Optimus for my birthday. Will use some of the tips on my build this weekend!
greetings from portland, oregon, USA. your tips are useful. thank youuu!!!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Great Video!!!
Welp, I am early as hell. Hello, keep up the great content!
I got this, it does the same thing.Thanks!
Great video :)
Nice suggestion, appriciate 👍🏻
Thanks this helped I would have never noticed
Thank you!
I'm really tempted to buy that set.
Köszi az infót Balázs! Szerintem én már eleve így rakom össze a kezét! És a derekát. 🙃
Thank you
Lovely ❣️❣️❣️
My Favorites it's Lego Creator Expert 2022 Transformers Optimus Prime Set
This helped me in 2024.
Cool fixes. Relieved it was only a minor building mistake, and not an actual production oversight. Would hate for Lego have missed something that would altogether compromise the stability of the figure as it's supposed to be able to be displayed free standing. Also never understood the purpose of pivoting the gas tanks in robot mode until actually seeing it in person as they allow free rotation of the legs. Any chance of seeing a fix for the knees?
The pivoting of the gas tank while it does allow for leg rotation is primarily for show accuracy as it's rotated on his robot node design.
I saw a video showing how you can give LEGO Optimus knees by replacing the ball and socket joints connecting his upper and lower legs together with some ratcheting joints.
Bonjour, je vient juste d'acheter le Optimus prime cette semaine, merci pour les conseils de montage.
Will fix mine when I get home
Ironically, my Voltron has been standing for so long, it won't transform back in to lions.
Wow, I had 1 leg always falling and, indeed, I forgot the black pin on this one. The others fixes are very nice also, although I already did the one with the fingers. Now if only I could get a fix for his loosy elbow so that he can hold his gun, it would be nice.
Damn that leg came off easy.
Is there a guide to give the character some knees? My biggest annoyance with modern Lego is the lack of knees on mechs, even though they can easily add them and not hamper stability and looks.
Is there a possibility to make Options Prime motorised to move using Bluetooth connection?!
Yeah, Mighty Bowser uses the same parts for the arms and my bro forgot to put them in. No damage at all though
I have a query about the arms folding into the side of Optimus when changing into vehicle form. Mine did not seem as if it was assembled properly, and the side panels did not seem to have a smooth fit. What should I be checking in the area where the shoulder joints attach to the chest?
I have the same issue
My kit fell apart at the crotch, and I fear I'll have rebuild the entire area. What do I do?!😰
The only Problem I have with my Optimus is the Hip to Torso connection.
It slips out very easy. The only cross connection comes from the Grill part that easily disconnects for me when handling the Model.
So it usually hangs by the Yellow axle since the Brick connection fails.
Same here
Renove the turntable. Make a base with tiles. Replace the round brick with the one with pinholes on the four sides and cross axle hole in the center. Your waist will never ever break again. The original attachment is far too rigid and needs to transfer the tension to the axle.
same.. waist turntable is the weakest bit in my one.. was hoping to see a solution here! (I haven't had time to look into fixing it myself)
Happened to me also.
Make a knee bend and change the waist So that you don’t have to take a piece of it will be much easier
My issue is that the arms altars become too loose
First, pet peeve: it's "lose," not "loose."
Second, my problem is not addressed in this video. The 1x4 plate running across the tops of the feet, with the transparent orange 1x2 on top, gets pushed off by the model's weight because it's forward heavy in robot mode. I triple checked the instructions on the feet, and everything is built correctly. Did I miss something else?
Thanks, updated the title. About the 1x4 plate, mine only gets pushed off in certain leg positions, it stays in place when the robot is standing vertically.
I like transformers a lot but would never buy that one. Kudos for those who got it.
I hope the this new channel is not tiktok
The bumper sticker is reversed ( yellow for robot, grey for car)
It’s just the weight really
I have not had this problem.
Hey all
Thanks for that. I'm a fan of transformers and I was thinking to buy that set for myself but I see is not really god. Eyes should be made love like a LED lights and range of motion for legs and arms should be way better. That is an ICON for transformers but this Lego set is rubbish, unfortunately.
It’s really not rubbish. It’s a damn good set.
hello
Really early
If i remove the 1x3 plate from the hands the fingers are too much loose
So basically just dont be an idiot and not follow the instructions
User error, as usual.
If a user error happens too frequently that means the instructions can be definitely improved
You should pay more attencion to your lego before recording a video
Maybe you could also tell me why you say that?
