Shapeways hammer. It looks better and willl probably be a better fit.

Thanks Delta, I actually ordered this from Shapeway's last night, looking forward to getting it. Unfortunately the project has ground to a halt due to an eBay seller not bothering to send out one of my Air Raids a week after winning the auction :BANG_HEAD:

I'm not sure whether to keep the weapons green or paint them gunmetal, any feed back would be much apprecited.

They even still transform! Awesome!

As for the weapons, I'd say mostly gunmetal with green detailing (like on raised panels and such) to give them more depth.

Thanks, I wanted to keep the transformation even though traditionally they can't. I think your right about the weapons. Thanks for the feedback.

Looks awesome, you should totally paint the weapons...unless you work for Hasbro, in which case don't bother. lol.
