    It's a really nice figure. Even as a one off and won't break the bank. Highly recommend everyone to check out a review if interested.

    Who doesn't like a mini train bumblebee?

    He arrived today and I love this little guy. The plastic feels light, not necessarily cheap but definitely nowhere near top tier third party. However, I cant begin to care because for the price I couldn't be happier!

    Yup, not too big to fit in and not so small it looks ridiculous. Just right!

    Honestly, not one of my better efforts, so far. Probably a good thing i got a second back up in case i screwed up. I was experimenting with applying a gold in a sort of molted layering- but it sort of comes across as just dingy. If I keep applying more like this it may improve. We'll see.

    Also, the silver and gunmetal I used on his face usually looks wonderful, but it just came across as sloppy this time for a few reasons (probably including how smooth and how small his face is. Probably not done fiddling yet.

    This guy is a total delight. Nice transformation, decent quality, and just stinkin' adorable in both modes. I gave him a pistol - one of the FOC Swindle guns since it matches the look pretty well - and it plugs into one of the fist holes in locomotive mode to cover those exposed hands.

    MFT is quickly becoming a player. Well worth the price, and I'd love to see them do more HoS designs.
