Well, this actually is the 1st of 2 bonus items on his auction, however wanted to share them with you guys.

here's the prime thread: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/240428-rotf-leader-prime.html

They are removable (yay!!!!) and attach with 2 SETS of rare earth magnets. The batteries are replaceable and red 5mm LEDs. I removed the factory paints and applied what I thought was more "movie accurate" (what a stupid term, and after seeing the movie, I am leaning towards "less movie accurate" lol) not 100% happy with the placement, but with all the articulation the forearm has, I don't think the side which they are on really matters (his hands can rotate)

Anyway....

OFF


ON

Nice!!

Are the eyes still green? I could have sworn I saw an earlier pic where you had colored them blue?

 

Can you Make more?

 

no, they are blue. this is my weak attempt at taking pics with no lights in the room on. they do look green, yuck.

 

you son of a bitch. i just wanna smack you for being so kick ass at this stuff.

 

Sweet job! Can you toss up a pic of them not attached? I wanna see how you did it! Great work! 

 

Sweet!!
LEDS make things soooo much better, i probly wont attempt that lol
but what i wanna do is ive prime his

Spoiler

sickles like the one's he used to split Grindor's head in two!

 

dude these things are sick! nice work as usual. Really brings this figure to the next level.

 

really nice custom ! any tutorials later ?? lol

i post this before but pls !!

how did you paint the machines inside this wind shield ?? i painted mine with a black base ,then realize i couldn't paint inside ......

pls help !!!

 

I just used a carefully aimed wet wash. super pain in the ass to get all sides of all the gears. the cab is riveted together, and I think it would be smart not to open that can of worms.

 

horrible. no originality, paint is horrible, the LEDs suk. Well enough about MY customs, YOURS looks great. Im gonna have to try that but with The Fallen. I hope YOU do a Fallen custom with LEDs ALLOVER. good job

 

ahhh my customs will very soon have some AMAZING LEDs work, but not done by me   you'll hear more about it as they come...

 

well, make it quick, preferably The Fallen. HEY! ya know? i saw the movie and noticed he has some Light Blue on his face, try that on your NEXT Fallen. and I think he had a staff, add THAT too.

 

my apologies my sucks so bad 

but yeah, cool blades.. it's about time!!!!

 

Looking good!

I made my swords removable/attachable with magnets (using the original hinges where they used to rotate on) but one of them keeps rotating off to the side. I try to clip them in a straight position using the forearm armor panels but they're not as stable as they should be.

Two magnets.. that's an idea worth stealing. Hahaha. Thanks FR

 

don't even say that as a joke. yours is extremely cool. YOU know how I feel about it  

 

nice!

 

this one is over the top! nice dude

 

that a nice addition

 

 

more LEDs ? wow, thats going to be burning hot.
