Now that would be sweet if it turned out to be true.

i'll be broke if hasbro hired porfessionals on the paint application dept. then they released all the movie figures with realistic mettalic paints with no smudges or no paint passing though others surfaces with proper washes...
which i think is impossible...

Well that sucked!
If Hasbro wants to start doing Battle Damaged figures, I wish they would take a page from Gundam's book and do some retooling as apose to crappy paint aps.
I'd rther just get a plain one and take a lighter to it!
Kinda like this...

I have posted some of my work, including a custom movie ratchet, in the carbonbya forum. I have my own thread in there with all my prices listed.

I like the damage to the front of the truck and the arms. I do not like the paint on the head, looks like they just dipped half his face in glue and then in coal dust. Better the give him a new head that had sculpted damage.

Finally, Battle Damage that LOOKS like Battle Damage rather than just 'dirty paint apps'! The robot mode is missing A LOT of damage paint apps. A wash on the feet, hands, guns, head, and chest would have helped a lot.

Looks alright. Too many Primes in this line though... and the Voyager mold is the weakest.
I'm still waiting for a larger Bonecrusher figure...

I like it. The paint apps look better than the battle damaged Bumble Bee AND this time the bot mode is damaged as well.
If I don't ever find the Leader Prime I will get this one just to have a movie version of him. Otherwise, probably not.

It's funny because I have never even seen regular Voyager Prime or voyager Megs for that matter and now here's another version that I probably won't.
I am perfectly happy with my leader Prime.

Looks cool. The only way I'm getting this one is if I can't get the regular Voyager. I like this Prime, but I don't see any reason to get the same mold multiple times.

WOW it is the first battle damaged figure I'm thinking about getting. He looks amazing I really like the grill which looks a bit more metal than the other voyager primes. He also seems to be missing the driver but that is cool.
