    More pics later in the day.
    And I'm still tweaking the abs in that first pic, heh.

    EDIT: Adding a couple more images. Fusion Cannon added. Also more show accurate details that were missing have been added.

    Did you carve out the eyes on his face? They seem bigger and more show accurate.

    Thanks guys. It still transforms but I don't really care even a little about his alt mode. Every joints works just fine but I've never and probably will never transform him.

    And yeah, the detailing on the Prime show models makes using flats preferable so as to keep certain details looking the same in all light instead of only catching a glare and a glint here and there.

    I love the way this came out and I am really looking forward to future Prime figures to do this kind of work with.

    Nope. that's the other thing, this mold is AMAZING! It has a lot of texturing to try and emulte the brushed steel effect. I tried ti hide some of it as it's rather straight and boring but still a very neat effect.
    The eyes are exactly like that. The pupils and all are molded, I just went out of my way to get that evil look from teh series with the white and the red.

    I wish more people would do that rather than having dead looking crappy lightpiped eyes.
