*New ball join head
*the Kibble on his back has being rework to minimize it.
*The back wheels portion of trailer has being remove. and can be added and snap back on on truck mode.
*He has being painted and weather to give him some realistic characteristics.

Xaviercal, you are an absolute master of paints. Makes me almost want to buy one of those figs...almost, because it wouldn't look anything like your awesome custom out of the box. :lol:

BTW, the photographers working for Hasbro could learn a thing or two from you. You make the fig look so lifelike with such natural poses.

Holy hell, that is fabulous. :BOWDOWN:

ALMOST makes it worth buying, but I know no matter how much time I would spend agonizing over it with paint, it won't come out as nice as yours.

The backpack still kills it for me. Figure of that scale, NO backpack should exist.

BUT you did an amazing job, no question. Major applause to you. :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE:

That is tight. You took a lame figure and made it look incredible. :APPLAUSE: If it looked like that out of the box I would buy one.

If I ever pick up one of these, I'd love to know how you reworked the unsightly backpack kibble into something that looks out-of-the-way. Bravo, sir! :D

Yep, it looks way better without the chrome.
