No, pre-battle. Looks like you missed the vote I held a few weeks ago!

Yeah, totally missed it. I'm thinking you could give him a nice shinny G2-esque paint job, just like your TF:P FE BB. That would be cool.

I'll be using FE Cliff and it'll be super-glittery like Bee but red, obviously. I've just looked at pics of G2 Cliff and I suppose it will be a little like that.

Yeah, he seems to share the same problem as MP and Generations WFC Megatron. The arms end above the shoulders, which severely limits lateral (sideways) articulation without extending joints like those on MP-10 Convoy.

And MP Rod, who'd shoulders are the worst of the bunch. At least his can be fixed with a trim.

Wow, yet another flaw on a really problematic toy. I've heard he's rather fiddly in his alt mode, and the paint on his spoiler can easily get scratched when you combine him with his trailer.

Supposedly, they fixed this in the second release, but he's still fiddly in his alt mode and around the shin-guards.

Actually, it's not the paint on the spoiler that gets damaged, in fact, I think the spoiler is yellow plastic. What actually happens is that the red from the groove it slots into rubs off onto the spoiler.

Hmmm... should i have put a spoiler alert in front of that post? :lol:

I'm so funny.

I remember watching Peaugh's review of MP Rodimus way back when, and he recommended sanding the slots.

BTW, does yours have the same issue?

It does, and I've never bothered doing anything about it. It doesn't bother me.

The Prime shelf looks amazing with the repaints you've done, but I still think the caption to this image is the best thing about the thread.

Wow! Everything looks great. You keep a tidy ship.
The customs are fantastic!
My favorite part of the whole collection though?
The two little rabbits. Especially the little one with black ears and nose.

That I do! I've only just installed all these cases but I want everything to look nice. That's why I'm selling off the figures I don't care for any more - so the others can have a bit more space so everything can be seen. You may notice I've made some extra shelves from clear perspex to raise some figures up for better visability.
