    @teetee580 Hello friend. Did you finish the PG Unicorn?I just finished my and boy it was tough.Mainly because I tried to add 12 more LEDs to light up the Unchained parts.It was a failure as they didn’t light up the parts well as not enough clearance,or else would have had to make it non transformable(No way).But am still satisfied with the Bandai LEDs though the frame not lighting at the biceps still bugs me.I might actually give in and drill holes to make my custom LEDs shine better.

    There is another thing that bothers me and I don’t know if am doing someting wrong.Have you tried to transform the guy from Destroy and back to Unicorn mode?The face armor now,attached to the body doesn’t seem to have enough clearance to allow the Destroy Mode face to fall back inside. And that is a real problem for me.Are you experiencing the same?

      Hello Hellvin. I’ve finished my PG Unicorn more then a month ago. And I have to say, I’m also a bit disappointed the biceps don’t light up, and the other unchained parts as well, so I never display it as such.
      I too have some difficulties with transforming the head. From either modes back to the other.
      I did see a review on YouTube by Jabman025. It seems the collar can lift up to enable more clearance, however mine doesn’t do that, but maybe I’m being too careful, don’t want t mess up the paint job. Or maybe it has to do with the fact that it is painted.
      In either case, I don’t transform it that much, but when I do, I just take it real slow and take extra care not to scratch the paint. I also have some difficulties with the V-fin sliding forward and back, but this may also have to do with the paint job. And To me it isn’t all that clear in the manual how to go about it.
      Anyway, I hope you enjoy yours!

        Don’t worry: the V-fin just graze the edges and doesnt harm the paintjob. As for me I will have to gloss coat the head again as I mess it up while fighting with the head trying to look for a hidden articulation in it.
        Btw do you you know how to enable auto light mode of the LEDs?I went all over the internet to finally find the answer in a translated manual guide,lol.Hold the mode button for 3 sec while clicking the ON button.
