    Probably the original red blades. The clear blades were an incentive to buy their extra remold that many people wouldn't care about otherwise

    Was the link referring to the whole fig or just metallic darts? Anyone that is fluent in Chinese (i.e. NOT google translate) able to properly interpret please?

    The link is referring to full PX02B metallic Swoop figure. But not from the horse's mouth tho.

    Well. PX just confirmed Metallic Caelus on their FB site Planet X.

    Anyone seeking the non-metallic version of Caleus, I will be packing mine up and selling it to make room for the metallic one. It's 100% in condition and complete, along with original box and instructions. Will put up pics of it later this week. Asking $45USD + S&H.

    So PX finally broke their silence streak for a moment to address two of my inquiries. They confirmed that Metallic Caelus will indeed come with transparent swords. The other Q relates to the remaining Dinobots getting the Metallic treatment to which they responded along the lines of all depends on the sales of Metallic Caelus.

    Metallic Caelus looks pretty damned sharp! Anyone have a pic of Caelus with Siege Hound and/or Sideswipe? I wanted to see how well FOC Swoop looks with Siege figs.

    Saw metallic Caelus during TFCon. Let's just say it made me regret having the regular version.

    I really wish they would go back and fix some things up with the mold. A locking head, ankle tilts, and wrists would do wonders. Swoop is a little bit of a weak link in the set and this would be a good enough opportunity to do so. Unfortunately a shiny repaint only goes with their grimlock and doesn't really fit in with the rest of their releases, but it seems like they might be reissuing their entire dinobot line so who knows.

    The swords on mine would not go into the fists. Used the swords that came with Triton instead.
