It bothers me more than it probably should that Age of the Primes Menasor’s removable legs are JUST a little longer than Superion’s or Bruticus’. You can’t scramble-city the limbs properly. #Transformers

Age of the Primes Superion (with Nexus Prime), Menasor, and Bruticus frames with no limb bots attached. The arms and legs have been swapped around to show how each torso can connect to the other combiners’ limbs. However, Menasor’s legs are slightly longer than the other combiners’, so they have to angle his leg outwards so that they can stand level on the shelf.

Why doesn't he have an axe? Straxus always had an axe. Transformers Legacy G2 Universe Jhiaxus (2022) #Transformers #ToyPhotography Much like T30 Springer, Legacy Jhiaxus was designed to be as comic-accurate in robot mode as possible, with his vehicle mode being close enough to pass.
