    ...por que?

    If you are asking if you can use rubbing alcohol to remove it. Then, for some of it you can, not all of it. Some you will have to just paint over.

    I have removed the Battle damage paint off of both Deluxe Prime and Megatron.

    But you have to repaint the chest/window section.

    I used 91% isop Alcohol and a dish scrubbing pad.

    why remove it....i love the battledamage...except the tiny tiny bit of pink of megatron's helmet horn (they horns that are the sides of his mouth)

    the rest looks more silverish and not pink...and the battle damage gives them character

    Because Deluxe 2 pack Prime looks so much better without the battle damage, and a Head swap from Cybertron Prime Makes the Deluxe version look so much better then the Voyager version imo...

    It can be done but since some of the damage is over painted areas it will need touchup of those areas, such as primes windshield. The areas where there is damage over plastic with no detail could come off easily


    Hasbro should definitely re-release the prime mold later without the damage and no battle mask in the deluxe line

    Um, you're not supposed to drink that kind of alcohol...

    That said, I actually like the "battle" damage. It fits with the Animated style well I think.

    See, you can't stand the hate for the 2pack, and i don't see why people like to rag on Voyager Megs alot. I think he's great. I got him in a pretty cool pose on my table, and i quite like the pearl white on him. My 2pack Megs keeps falling down everytime i pose him, even after the superglue fix. And i don't like the mold. His alt mode is simplistic, even for a deluxe class toy. Voyager Megs had a better more solid looking alt mode.

    But what do i know? :wink:

    They probably will. I can't see them wasting two fresh molds especially for battle damaged versions. We'll probably see these in Waves 5, 6 or 7. They'll need another excuse to re-release Op and Megatron again.

    So where can you buy rubbing alcohol if you want to modify one or both of the 2-pack figures?
