    Oh, sorry. I think I missed it then. Are they like the hands for FP Superion add on?

    They're designed for the MP seekers, but happen to be the exact same size as FP's superion hands.

    test prints came in

    - knee caps - FINAL
    - neck piece - FINAL
    - arm cannon adapters - FINAL
    - gun - very very small tweak needed but consider it FINAL
    - thigh extension piece - need some minor aesthetic changes
    - head - face locking assembly works now (but to swap faces manually you will have to pry the face out with a very thin flathead screwdriver), antenna assembly needs minor tweaking but nothing major

    very close now....

    Lookin good man, lookin very good. Cant really see the details of the face from the pic but i like the high antenna look, fits in with the style the fansproject bruticus head has. Love the wrists, wish i still had my energon parts for this guy

    i find antenna is a bit too long; im going to shave just a tad bit

    but either way overall proportions will be pretty much what you see in the photo (minus slightly shorter antenna)

    Looks so good. Like the antenna, but I am sure it will be cool either way. What scares me is all that white. I am never 100% happy with anything I paint. :O

    im happy to say that im calling it quits with this little project and moving on:rock 

    updated first post this is the first time i have done this so please bare with me as it's quite embarrassing

    in addition, i will be attending TFCON in toronto, canada (not the chicago one sorry) on july 11-13, so for those who are interested in seeing the kit in person (it will not be painted however) i can bring superion to the con (i probably will since at least one person wants to see it)

    reply or PM if interested. friday nite is prolly the best time since it's the least busy.....

    nono it means i am FINISHED with the kit and happy with it and not making any more changes


    EVERYTHING IS FINAL

    DONE

    COMPLETE

    CALLING IT QUITS AND MOVING ON


    (otherwise why would i bother wasting the time and embarrassing myself in the video?)

    which means now i have to worry about releasing it, probably as one whole big set only
