    It'll be removable. After all the fuss with MP-5 auctions being removed because of how real it looks (which then got extended to original/reissue Megatrons; several members here had this problem with eBay pulling their auctions) putting an orange cap in the barrel is the easiest way to get past eBay's kneejerk "OMG GUN!" reaction.

    Pretty good idea if you ask me. If I were going to sell a G1 Megs, I would do the same thing.

    Yea, that looks like a cap from an orange highlighter. Heck, it's not even attached to the barrel(don't tell ebay that), you can see it if you look closely.

    Others just "paint-shop work" an orange rectangle to the tip.
