    Had some time to play with some paint and i love SG Prime so figured a Masterpiece grade version was needed for the collection. What do ya think?

    -fully disassembled
    -everything was sprayed asides from the gold, knee joints and biceps
    -slime green paint is too gritty and is prone to chipping

    Awesome, but looks suspiciously similar to the EVA version.

    Thanks man, he was a little tricky to take apart, especially at the chest. The window pins have to be slightly knocked out and the then window, once unscrewed, has to be slightly bent over the pin to slide it off. Its safe enough to do without any plastic whitening. Then the grill section is held together sideways and sits in between two parts that have to be screwed together after screwing together the upper chest. Put it this way it took three tries to get it back together :)  but it was worth it.

    I don't wanna toot my own horn, but wouldn't you guys agree that this colour scheme is maybe a little cooler than the official one that is being released?

    Yes! It's a bit more understated, but in a good way.
