The Armada Megatron mold is a classic, and it looks great on your shelf as Galvatron!

A good day to all.

In this post i am highlighting the DNA kit for ROTB Studio Series Optimus Prime. Overall not a bad kit for this OP. Trying to keep this short so to speak but in the photos i tried to do comparison or a before and after look as i put the pieces on. I would like to point out though when putting on the new shoulder parts, you have to make sure you get that one piece on really good. Otherwise the shoulder halves will not come together properly to secure with the screws.
The rest of the pieces are easy enough to switch out. Of course, the weapons have a better look and the arm cannons are more screen accurate.
The Noah/exo-suit fits well with my ROTB diorama. I will add some more paint details to him but for my application/purpose it works for me.

It is a decent upgrade set in my opinion. It gives you a more accurate look for bot mode and weapons while giving you playability and posing.

I will say the new shoulder pieces didn’t affect the sticker set i had applied from Toyhax, which of course was good.

Enjoy,

Moving onto some other updates. I decided to pull my Armada Powerlinx OP out of the display case and transform him into is combined mode. Then i placed him on the one case with my other OPs. I took a photo of both releases just for fun. I realized at some point, i ended up with a second OP, which was a few years back. The one i purchased back when he was released i put in the display case with the Armada line i have. The other sits with the rest of my OPs. Maybe at some point i will sell that one, who knows.

Lastly, talking about the Dinobots again.. With my recent purchase of Snarl, i decided to search for Sludge. I had found some really decent prices on eBay. I was able to snag a copy for 32 bucks, but add shipping and wonderful tax it was 42. Now i am not complaining by any means, i am very lucky at the price. So now I have them posed on top of my one display case that has all my Titans and Commander class type characters. I do have Swoop preordered and hopefully in the near future i will purchase Slag. If I'm not mistaken next October, Grimlock will be rereleased, while that will be awhile to wait for, it’s all good. Doubt i will find him for a decent price but you never know. I will have them all at some point. I am beyond late to the party in having these guys but it’s all good.

Wherever you may be, have a good day,
