I think Scourge and Cyclonus' molds are unfortunately among those missing in action, along with Springer, Blurr, and Wreck-Gar.shawnmct wrote:I just now came across this wonderful figure. This should REALLY be in the reissue line!!!!

As for transformation, I do have to be very careful when I do it, the paint scrapes at some points. I took him apart to do most of the painting. The paint scraping was waaaaay worse until I did a polyurethane coat. I wasn't even going to bother with the top coat until I noticed that; and I did it with him assembled, but kept it out of most of the joints.
Thank you so much for the idea! Its easily in my top 10 favorite pieces in my collection now, and definitely the best conversation piece. This is my first full repaint as well, I'd done a few 3D printed replacement parts (Galvatron cannon and Scorponok head), but nothing that went and changed who a character is.
