    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    Really? I know it's been awhile since they were released and BBTS prices aren't be trusted but weren't the previous car bots $60-70?

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    I don't get the love for Sunstreaker myself. He looks like a mess to me. Similar issues as I had with Megs but worse and a less appealing overall look than Megs. I don't love Bad Cubes but I really dislike TT's. I really like that Omni one, just a shame it was so badly produced.

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    Yeah it's confirmed. Was announced when they first showed Omega Supreme.

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    From what I understand ToyWorld sold their designs to another company due to customer feedback and are now going back to the drawing board with both Bruticus and Superion to try to do something more G1 accurate.

    Medicom Evangelion Eva 01

    Probably still too short for you (and if you're not into models you have to put it together) but the Kotobukiya kits look really nice. They're about 7.5-8 in./19-20.5 cm) tall from what I am reading. I assume by SOC you're including the SPEC series. I think TV version of the SOC-SPEC is about...

    Medicom Evangelion Eva 01

    I had two of the Medicom Evas and it's one of my bigger regrets. They started to leech colors into other colors in less than a year.

    I post semi-regularly on TFW, mostly in the third party forums though.

    Made some further progress over the last few days. Been taking my time, careful to sand off all the sprue marks before painting etc. Bandai HG-UC Sazabi WiP 03 by James Seaman, on Flickr

    It's a GUNDAM!!! - all things gundam

    I recently got the model building itch. It's something I've had since a kid (used to do military models) and put aside for many years. Some friends of mine and I recently got bit by the Gunpla bug. I know nothing about the character but Char's mechs, the Sazabi and Nightingale have always been...

    Is anyone worried about the possible paint issues? Both Ben and TCP seemed to already have some paint damage. Seems like the whole thing is painted which can be problematic for Transformers.

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    I think he wins in some of the comparison shots. Mostly the ones from straight on. I do see the appeal though, especially in the video. I think it also depends on what you want him for as I do not think he looks at all "right" next to MP-10 or Soundwave. Now if you want to display him with MP...

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    I'm not sure if you're kidding or didn't really think out what you were typing. In regards to the paint though, have you watched the video review that pic is from? The paint looks surprisingly nice. It's not just a flat grey. I've been very critical of MP36 but it looks pretty darn good in the...

    First custom project in a long time: Kotobukiya Blues (Protoman)

    It's been quite some time since I have done a project. Previous projects include: - Desert Hunter Predator (2015) - City Hunter Predator (2014) - OMFC Repaints (2012) - Zomb Garage (mostly 2011) Also various smaller minor repaints and things done between the OMGF repaints and the City Hunter...

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    The official MP line to me is crazy inconsistent visually. None of them really look quite right together. Even since they started going for this super cartoony look they don't really match up aesthetically all that well. Even something like faction symbols has become inconsistent.

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    I don't necessarily believe that's true. The proportions on the Takara version aren't that different from some of the 3rd party versions. The main big difference is the legs and those look totally fine and aren't messy at all. The main issue is the torso and MakeToys seems to have been able to...

    The Megatrons are kind of the opposite of the Reflectors available. I think all of the Reflectors looks great in different ways while Megs I feel like they all look bad in different ways.

    ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

    I'm planning on replacing them, though not with white outline stickers. Never been a fan of those. I'm probably going to use the cartoon stickers, the non-outline type since he's already black. I like the black outline ones for most bots. Edt: Like so: MMC Jaguar by James Seaman, on Flickr
