Airazor didn't need any, so in the interest of not having boobs on top of a jet, I think they're easily forgotten in this hypothetical circumstance. I dunno if boobs are necessary for a female TF.

Although given the chest placement, having an airplane with boobs on the top of the fuselage would be awkward.

I find holding him by the shoulder works fine for that. (I also find fully extending them to be harder than compacting them again, so, yeah.) Huh.

You need a fair bit of force for that and there aren't many good places to grip him so that you can keep the arm straight as you push.

Did you find Screamer's legs have a tendency to pop off the joint with a feather touch, or is that just mine? Had it happen twice in the jet-to-robot transformation (due to holding him by the legs when turning his hips, then randomly by moving the other leg out of the way to put that one back!), and once in the robot-to-jet transformation (didn't have the tab aligned right when trying to pop his leg into place, and popped it off the joint when I tried to move it home). Despite this he stands pretty well, so it's only a minor annoyance.

But I could be wrong, especially if that makes things funnier. I think the face-chest ends at the bottom of his ribcage. But I could be wrong, especially if that makes things funnier.
