Botcon Customization Class Instructions

I recently bought several customization class kits from the FunPub/Botcon "Going Out Of Business" sale and I need to find instructions from the class so that I can put the figures together. I don't need a hardcopy. A picture or a scan would work.

I'm looking for the Botcon Customizing Class instructions from 2014 (Primal Prime), 2012 (Shattered Glass Longarm), 2011 (Animated Minerva), 2010 (G2 Sideswipe), & 2007 (Overkill). I have the other years.

For those of you who were actually at any of the classes from the years above, do you recall having any issues assembling any of these figures?

Please help! Thanks!

I might still have my 2012 ones. No promises but I can take a look! I'd be interested in the paint lists from the 2008 and 2009 instructions if you have them :)

That would be awesome if you can get a scan/pics of the 2012 instructions!

I posted the paint lists from 2008 and 2009 on TFW2005. Is it ok to link them from here?

Just a quick copy/paste preferred, but a link doesn't break any rules :)

Looking to get the 2012 book scanned soon, btw. Maybe a couple more days, sorry about the wait!

Attached below is the paint list for Botcon 2009 SG Thunderclash. If you look at the list, you will see Polly Scale paints. They don't make Polly Scale paint anymore. However, I was able to buy the GN Glacier Green paint off of eBay. Let me know if you need it - If be willing to ship it to you (I doubt that I will use it again.). For GN Big Sky Blue, I saw somewhere on the internet that Model Master Acrylic Insignia Blue #4742 (1 part) mixed with Model Master Acrylic Duck Egg Blue #4748 (4 parts) is a close match.

For Botcon 2008 SG Nightbeat, I can't find the paint guide. I have the instructions manual/handbook (I was at that class) but there is nothing listed in there about the paints that were used. They must have had a paint guide at the class. Sorry, I thought that I had that one.

Please get the 2012 guide if you can - I really need it!

Thanks!

Short version: I cannot find my 2012 class instructions, and I'm so sorry for getting your hopes up. Thought I knew precisely where they were!

Longer version: What's above, though I did find the parts breakdown and take home project slip/baggie (from the Shockwave head) where I thought all of it would be located. I still have a place or two to check, but they're boxes that aren't easy to get to. I can't find my 2012 comic either, so it's probably in the same nebulous location. To conclude, I may come across it and will check here to see if you need a scan once I do, but it may not be anytime soon :(

I recently bought the 2008 Custom Class Nightbeat, and I was wondering if someone could post a scan of the assembly instructions? Judy mentioned having them and I would really appreciate the help, I cannot find scans anywhere.

thanks if you can!

Anyone have just a paint list for 2007 Overkill? My last one to build from the GOoB sale a few years back!
