Got this little guy and when I went to pose his legs the silver scraped off.... So I went nuts, took him apart stripped the paint from his crotch( which also had paint damage) and just decided to make him more screen accurate...(well I matched him to some promo art. Also did the peaugh fix for th arms. The hole on top of the truck mode is also a 5mm hole.

 

Another pic...why cant I upload more than one pic at a time?

 

And a comparison

 

Very nice!

 

Great work Megatron407, your added detail & paint is clean, simple, & very effective! Your custom makes me wonder why Hasbro won't do this.  

 

You just answered your own question there, bud.

 

looks real good

 

Thanks guys! Glad you like him! With big company like Hasbro they have to keep deco to a minimal, and I get it because the more deco the more costly the figure. atleast they advertise the figures as such. Playmates used over deco promotional photos an then the actual figure ends up looking waaaay different and missing tons of paint aps that the figure was advertised with. I will be putting the little guy on ebay for a starting price of 19.99. Bid if you would like to own him  

 

Here's a pic under more natural light, you can pic out the little details in the chest a little better.

 

This looks great!
The base figure is pretty good, but definitely suffers from the lack of paint apps, nice job!

I can't find any info on the arm mod you referenced. Can you post a link or explanation?
(I'm assuming it involves removing that screw in the forearm, but I can't figure out how to reach it)

Indeed I can, the planet of junk is in this vicinity.

 

Perfect! Thanks, I knew there had to be some way to do this!
What an improvement!

 

Indeed, and very easy to do!

 

This looks so much better. Nice work! I am going to have to try that arm mod.
