B.2 (ビーツー), Mach, not Beats (ビーツ) :) It's a play on Bumblebee ;)

And translucent Microns? Gimme! Along with the Shadow ones... :PRAY:

And I just noticed that the second prize is the Sound Stage, and third prize a golden Hades Micron, or that bat that comes with Voyager Megatron.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

It looks like they're done with PCC mini-cons now. I guess that's good, there's quite an extravagant amount of AM ones to tackle.

Oh Jeez. Weak, wimpy, transparent plastic is not good for figures the size of Arms Microns. Heck, my first Bulo's leg broke during assembly, because there are parts that have to be wedged into very tight spaces, and tiny plastic don't like that.

1. They look shiny!
2. Gold-colored Chrome on white plastic, nothing more. Regular gold is way too expensive.
