No, he's a bright orange. Just that many times it's neon, lookin yellow.

As for the bash, loks rushed, doesn't give the effect your other MPs do. Still, interesting idea, becasue it works somehow on this mold... :grin:

Hi guys,

Thanks for the comments. This one I struggled with a little in the beginning.

Regarding Bond's query, that Sunstorm should've been yellow, I was looking this up when I did the figure and Sherade is right. The yellow is because of the exposure and in many of the itirations he is yellow. If you see the titanium series, even hasbro decided to paint him yellow.

The version I decided on is what Hasbro and Takara agreed on in G1 version. If you see this, its bright orange in colour.

Regarding the paint job being rushed, it might seem so, but it was really difficult to get the blend of orange and white on the figure even with a base coat. So might seem that way compared to the other MPs. This was one of my ealier piece also but I still love this figure.

Thanks, will try better next time.

Kindest regards,
