    Where can I buy these?
    And throw a couple of swords in there while you're at it, pretty please. With sugar on it. Really.
    This will take a lot of the sting out of my inability to find FE Optimus at a price I'm comfortable with.

    These will look sweet on my Takara FE Optimus Prime.

    The top pic looks as though you can slide the hands all the way down, but G1 Optimus makes it look as though it can't be done. Can the hands indeed be hidden? How much and can you take a picture with RiD Optimus holding these?;)

    The cast was still "hardening" so the plastic was a bit soft so I chose not to force it in (that picture was taken for a facebook post so I wasn't intending it to be used as a product POC lol). Pics with FE Prime (I brought my AM Prime to work with me and will take some pics of them with him later);

    Nevermind, how about now instead for PRID pics;

    This is the PRID mold (but mine is the AM-01 Takara Version);

    These are raw unfinished guns too in the pics. They were trimmed from the sprue in a hurry so the handle cut isn't perfectly straight. For anyone that actually buys one I will do a fresh casting to order and do some light sanding and shining to them probably in addition to making sure the cuts are professional. I think I stated earlier too that I can take some level of custom requests for colors as long as they aren't too complicated.

    I'll make a purchase thread for people to post feedback. First couple people interested I will probably sell for shipping cost as long as they post their honest feedback for others here on the boards. I think I have hijacked Wu's thread enough here.

    UPDATE: Here is a link to my commission thread and I will answer any further questions about my guns there;

    These look awesome, can't wait to see when theyll post for sale.

    For everyone that is looking for decent replacement swords theres a board member (arielscustoms) on shapeways that is doing some stuff you may want to checki out. also has cannons/ grenade for wheeljack, upgrade kit for Starscream, smaller "stinger" blades for Arcee, and cannons for RiD Cliffjumper. THeres even a 5 pack of Scraplettes.
