Cool cool, D. It appears to have that neat quick open feature (I forget what it's called); spring assist? I'm also going to assume it has a pocket clip from the angle it's sitting at.

For me, It's pocket clip or GTFO.

If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for that lil gem?

Yep, there is a nice pocket clip there. It doesn't have the spring, but the little handles make for a quick flip out blade.

I paid $10 for it. Best tenner I've ever used if I may say so.

That thing has also opened every transformer I have gotten since then. I've put it to use :MAXIMAL:

I love Megatronus! For such a simple little dude, he's incredibly fun. Anyone know what the story is on the faceplate'd version? I haven't seen him anywhere.

TRU exclusive. They have a couple different paint apps too. That one has been on shelves here for a month or so.

I liked his evil little face, so I held out.

The friendly post man dropped off tonight's project yesterday.

I'm equal parts anxious and excited. Expect some before and after pics ;)^

Which label set is that Cary? The limited one for the Asia releases? Also, you have Hasbro Devastator right? I'm looking forward to the results ;)^

Yes and yes. As am I.

Tweezers, razor knife and rubbing alcohol are all on stand by.

I don't bear to apply stickers... and I appreciate very much who has the patience

Great Job Cary! (and Arcee is very "sexy" in your pics :lol:

)

How much time to apply the stickers?

Thanks, I had a lot of fun with Arcee. Glad you enjoyed.

Stickers give me a lot of anxiety, so that was a labor of love. Let's see, total time taken... :-?

My first pic was taken at 10:26pm and the last pic was taken at 2:12am - so almost 4 hours. I did prep all the surfaces with rubbing alcohol and I'm a bit of an obsessive perfectionist.

I had fun and learned a little about myself. Thirty years later and I'm only marginally better at applying stickers to toys. Also my hands are a little too shakey and my eyesight is too bad for this kind of detail work.

I'm very happy with the results and I have a few stickers left for "free play" as the poorly translated instructions put it. (google visual translate of Chinese using the app)

No clue as to where I could put those long ones.
