I wish I could get a tiny blue LED behind it now. :lol:



Going to work on lowering it a bit, but the trick is to get it to stay put once it's further down.

Motto: "At least the opening was good."
Weapon: Railgun
Really cool, but that hand...

What were they thinking giving him such a huge hand? He's not Skids!

And four of the fingers are the same size... He's not Primus!

Wait... This is the Dual Model Kit, right?

"It's getting them to stay down that's the trick!" FTW!
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

It's really the only nitpick I have with the figure. But I can also see the designers side in that the hands were already small and kind of hard to deal with as it was, being each hand has 17 pieces. Making them smaller would have just amplified it. It's also not too bad once you give them some bend like many figures have. Or even have him clench his fists.

I think it would be nice if a 3rd party made good hands for the model kit.

Either way, the hands would probably end up costing $150 (US). :lol:
