    You're kidding, right? You're just starting? Really? I haven't seen as much painted detail from a beginner in so long. This one's really nice.

    All i gotta say is you might want to change the eyes. Could be the photos, but they just look slightly too bright to me. And, correct me if i'm wrong, but aren't the windows red on the Deluxe Strike Mission Sideswipe?

    As for NEST symbols, iirc reprolabels might have some.

    The alt mode looks pretty neat, especially the racing stripes. I love it.

    One criticism (constructive) is to avoid using flash? It tends to overexpose figures especially when they are so small and we usually hold the camera too close.
    Use a table lamp if you need more light, and set up a tripod for longer exposure.

    A nice, wet cloth for wiping away dust particles will help. I always feel icky seeing dust gather on glossy surfaces.

    The details are incredible on the robot mode. Sadly, still won't persuade me to buy HA Swipe.

    The vehicle mode's deco is the best part. Looks very sleek and sexy on an already sleek and sexy car.
