    Lovely work! I never get tired of ROTF Megatron metallic repaints! This one seems more spot on than previous repaints that were a bit too generous with gold in various places. Keep it coming!

    Love the colors - but surprised you kept the non-accurate toes...
    Either way - great work!

    Thank you. I had one a long time ago, then it was used to customize my Leader Class Megatron. This one I found at a Comic Con for $25 last month! Way cheap for what I could find online!

    Thanks! I never liked the non-accuracy of the bot mode backpack, but at least the kibble is designed to be cool looking. His design reminds me of the Balrog from LotR: Two Towers.

    Thank you!

    If only you knew someone with experience in adding hinges to plastic panels...
    Someone who was brave enough to try to engineer improved transformations...

    Well, cutting it up to be more compact is easy enough, however i don't know how well the new look would suit him... I've had a few ideas but nothing quite yet at the "Aha!" Level.

    Thank you much!

    Understood, but does that mean you haven't seen akogarecaterpillar's ROTF Voyager Backpack Mod?
