Looks great, love the paint apps... You didn't go overboard on the red & teal apps, and the wear looks great!

Might I ask to see a pic of the alt. mode? If you did as an impeccable job on it as you did the robot mode, then it's pure win all-around! :APPLAUSE:

I added some pics of the alt mode to my site, if you still want to see them..

They definitely dont have as much detail, but that was intentional..
The idea was the his "skeleton" was the thing that remained the same through the ages, and the outer body would be rebuilt to fit into his surroundings.. so the scars/wear from battle stay on his internal parts only..

With as many black/Nemesis Primes as there is out there I never get tired of seeing another. I think Hasbro would do well to produce a Prime, Magnus, Nemesis in every toy line.
I love it. I think it's the first Classics Black Prime I've seen also. Are you going to redo the box also? I think a custom box is the icing on the cake, and so few are done.
Great job can't wait till the next one.
