Thanks. I dunno why I can't seem to take photos as clear as your awesome ones though. I must be doing something wrong. I will google tips later (probably tomorrow as I'm tired now and it's almost time to attempt sleeps). Yeah I do like these background pics. A lil tricky to try and combine a couple though but I guess they were designed mainly for single figure display.

Really good lighting makes all the difference. I'm just using an iPhone 6S Plus via the default iOS camera app. There's some shots I have that look great, some that look terrible!! I don't have time to "filter" or "adjust brightness/exposure". That said, focus lock does work nicely which can under or overexpose a picture pretty well. Focus lock also has a nice blurring effect, like Gnaw blurred in the foreground of that Kup/Gnaw picture above or background objects heavily blurred on an object in the foreground like the one I took at the WWII Memorial.

I really thought they would've made them designed for more figures! I mean, there's no way you could have Megatron and Optimus in that scene without both backdrops.

Very nice!

And I don't know if you didn't actually know who Silverbolt is, but he is a mixture of a Wolf and an Eagle! My favorite Beast Wars character! And he was nicknamed "Birddog" in the show!

Deep Space Arsenal sells them on eBay.

Look at the Rodimus pic again and check out his shoulders, because they aren't stock either.

Ah. I was actually able to track it down myself via the power of Google, but appreciate the confirmation. With 3p and 3d printed upgrades you just never can tell what you're looking at. Thanks

I'm considering a set for my NemRod but it appears those shoulder bits hinder articulation. How's the shoulders movement with those plates in place?

It takes away some of the ugly movement where you lift the shoulders up unnaturally. The real problem is that there is no place to store the parts in the other modes.
