UPDATE - Custom Earthrise Optimus Prime Review

Postby GotBot » Mon Mar 02, 2020 3:54 pm

In a follow up to my comparison between my custom Siege versus Earthrise Optimus Prime, many people asked if there were things that could be done to make the ER just a little bit more G1, especially since everything is attached with pins and not screws. Well, the answer is, yes. With a little TLC and rectifying a couple of color choices, we might now have an ideal (?) Generations Optimus Prime. I am left with one quandary  though - Do I leave the silver on the leg vents and forearms (there is actually a reasonable argument for doing so) or do I go full on G1 and remove that silver too?

Motto: "Earthrise restock or riot"
I would argue to leave the silver. It's the kind of detail that looks like it's supposed to be silver or at least metallic gray, but the G1 paintjobs weren't that complex.
WANT:
* Cyb. Galvatron key, missiles
* Omega Lock
* Primus Cyber Key, coattail panel
* Powerlinx Comettor
* Leader Sentinel Prime sword, shield
* RiD Galvy dragon head, beast arms
* Leader Ironhide windshield, R hood assy.
* Cyb. Wing Saber left chestplate (argh)

We don't have kings in America
