Hey,

I have uploaded an article on the E-hobby exclusive desert-camo Hound repaint 77 "Detritus" here:

Hope you enjoy it. If you're not very familiar with the toy, there are a couple of surprises in there

All the best
Maz

I was actually fortunate enough to pick up one of these at Botcon last year from TFSource.com (with Magnifico). I thought the figure was pretty cool. Im a huge jeep buff (live and drive Jeep) so when I saw it I knew I had to have it.

Thanks for the update Maz!

With names such as Overcharge and Detritus, it's not surprising that they haven't sold particularly well.

That was a great read. I am not as detail oriented as I thought, because I think on this, I was overall put off by the salmon color, so he quickly went on the shelf to never be looked at again (closely).

The details you point out are incredibly cool, and make me glad that I have one. Never even noticed his 'facial' similarity to Wreck Gar. Tfs with facial hair collectors now have another piece (not sure how a TF gets facial hair, but hey, I believe there can be female TFs, so why not Tfs with different extraneous facial molding).

I'm going to go have a look at mine right now! :-?

That's the spirit! Having reviewed it in detail I have a greater appreciation for it as well, no doubt.

All the best

I've been wanting Magnificus for a while.
