Most cartoon accurate add-ons for Masterpiece figures...
Posted: Thu Oct 06, 2016 1:11 pmAs most of us are aware, their are quite a few 3rd party add-ons out there, in order to upgrade our Masterpiece figures.
Now I would like this thread to become somewhat of a guideline to what add-ons would be recommended in order to recreate the most cartoon accurate figure possible.
The main target of the figures in this thread is to get them as cartoon accurate as possible... to match their cartoon-counterparts.
(to keep this thread as close to the subject as possible, I would kindly request to stick to the subject - which is cartoon accurate add-ons - and start a toy accurate discussion in another thread if needed)
The list of Transformers in this guide, will be used as a base and I will update them with recommended add-ons on a regular base.
So please reply to this thread with your personal recommendations on what cartoon accurate add-on you would recommend other people, and I will update the list with the best add-ons.
(all this, to help out fellow Transformers Masterpiece collectors, to pursue the most cartoon accurate figures)
* Some characters, such as; Megatron, Blitzwing, Inferno, Grapple, Galvatron etc. I left out on purpose, since at the moment there are a few different manufacturers that haven't released their figures yet... making it difficult to determine the best version at this moment.
These figures WILL be added to the list later on.
