The Energon Pub

I just came accross NONNEF Productions TR Chromedome Upgrades and was wondering if anyone purchased these and what they thought of them?

I'm not so sure I need the wrist swivels but I am interestend in getting two red rifles. I am very happy with the CW Superion antennae I purchased some time ago but I'd like to know how the rifles are and if the wrist swivels are worth it.

Thanks.

They seem pretty decent; and they appear to have similar wrist swivel and weapon upgrades for Mindwipe, Broadside, Brainstorm and Blurr too. I wouldn't mind them, but whoops, looks like wrist swivels are sold out anyway

Well that makes things easier. I think I'll get the red rifles.

I just wish I hadn't missed out on the CW feet. I hope they rerelease them for Power of the Primes combiners.

The feet from either these guys or PE I'm desperate for. I love the CW Combiners but the HFGs as feet is probably the biggest flaw with 'em.

I do like the HFG as hands, but yeah, I really want the Nonnef feet. PE is too expensive for me and makes everything too complicated. I don't know why a foot can't just be a foot but also has to become two giant guns that according to video reviews are a pain to plug into the pegs because they keep coming appart.

I found a video review of the Nonnef Chromedome guns and hands. The guns look great. The hands may have some issues.

I received the red rifles in the mail today. They look and work exactly like the pictures from NONNEF. Further, the sculpting is brilliant. The stock has just the right curve to fit nicely over the forearm and the barrel is prefectly shaped to sit above the roof of the car.

Now my Chromedome is holding his proper rifles and the TR weapons are safely put away for other uses (like adding weapons to my fan mode TR Megatron base). Although I do like using the seat gun as a Gundam style shield so I'll probably keep mixing things up as the mood strikes me.

Here are some pics:

This is how the stock fits over the forearm:



This is how the barrels sit over the roof:







And this is Chromedome properly armed:
