I was bored, figured it'd be something to do in my spare time between work, what with new TV shows not happening these days.
I would have gone for the seekers, but eh.
I found Metal Earth Optimus Prime in one of the unpacked boxes. I guess by the time I'm done I won't need a face mask to stop me from touching my face because my fingers won't be touching anything.
