Hi guys! I literally have no idea where to put this but there seems to be several threads about different areas of one figure so I thought starting a new thread would seem ok.
This is for all you people wanting to repaint Soundwave's yellow visor red.

MP Soundwave looks so much better with the red visor. Nice job

Snap... I need to try that.

I might too, once Soundwave is available at my TRU.

Albeit, I would try a darker red.

ehh, I am fine with yellow eyes.

If I did do it, id go with a different shade of red.

It's quite a simple mod actually so best of luck to those of you who wants to try! =)

As for the red, I didn't really pic a blinding red like the video shows. It's more of a camera flash thing since I don't have particularly good lighting anywhere argh!

I haven't quite decided if I'll mod my MP Soundwave +5 Asia Reissue, since G1 SW is one of my all-time faves....but the difference might be nice! Thanks for this.

Ocean Designs (official item)decal set has one for SW's visor.

Nice, thanks fenrir! It's cool I could go full G1 and apply stickers....

I wanted mine to evoke the toy vibe of my 84 Soundwave. I got the yellow eyed version on purpose.

Wow, steady hands required! Last exercise I had applying stickers was TR Fort Max - fun, and slightly challenging. Those TFs look amazing with those designs applied!

The closest I ever got to any other bots were those snap-on model Gundams - no glue required and plenty of poseability....as well as sticker sheets. :RUBSIGN:
