Disappointed that the head isn't painted like the cartoon. What's the damn point if the paint apps are the same?

The rest looks nice. I don't know if I'll use this configuration all the time. We'll see.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card
Universe Ironhide / Ratchet's gun/blade attachment

The new head will be going in my parts box along with the original. Im going for the Crazydevy G1 head. And as good as the new gun looks, why the hell is it black and not purple ??? Am I going to have to buy a gun from Crazydevy too to go with the purple barrel I bought ???

Im confused as to why people are so irked about the new forarms not being intergrated into the other modes. I honestly dont give a damn. On the original G1 Devastator, the purple combiner parts attached to the construction vechicles in stupid ways to make them looked "armed". Everybody just threw them in the parts box back in 1985 so why complain now ??? G1 Bruticus, Abominus, Piranacon, Defensor, Suoerion, Predaking, and Menasor, all had feet, fists, and a head that were "extra parts" too.

Huh...I didn't even notice the gun was black the first time I looked at these. I just always assumed it would be and didn't really look for it. This is quickly being chalked up as a pass. The head doesn't seem much different, I don't need another rage face, I prefer the tread forearms with the Shapeway set to put NB's blade where it's supposed to go, and the gun isn't purple. Unless I want to paint an extra head myself for a more G1 look, there just doesn't seem to really be any reason to get this anymore. I think someone's gonna need to paint one up and post some pics that sell me...

I never bought anything from Shapeways before. Ordering seems kind of complex. I seen some pretty cool stuff from designers who use it though. My hopes is that TFC might have addressed the concerns of the arm pegs from stripping with the upgrade. Bummed about the gun being black. Especially after remembering that the Crazydevy gun is way too oversized for my taste. Im hoping that company with the new "king tut" heads for Hercules does a proper purple gun.

I'd say the black rifle is TFC's answer to the complaints about the guns that came with the individual figures. Too bad they missed the part where we said it was the red guns we weren't digging.
