    Don't really care for this figure much but had to get it on clearance so that I could paint him in G1 colors. Should have been a voyager.

    Sweet. I wouldn't mind a little blue in there (maybe the hands?) but it still looks great. Nice work as always.

    Looks nice! I hope for an official repaint like this. I'm not tempted to buy him in G2 colors either.

    That would be cool. If not, I hope the new Fans Project armor fits my repaint.

    This is speaking to me. I'm getting good vibes from this, man. He really does look good in his G1 colour scheme.

    I like the navy you used as well as the paint apps on the metal blade.

    Cool. I actually bought 2 of this mold when it came out. One for Scourge, and one for w/e. After I opened it, the G2 color scheme began to bug me more and more. I started giving him a G1 paint job last night. Mine is a lot brighter and going to be similar to Unicron-9's Optimus Prime Forever.

    I like the dark and gritty look your Primes have. I prefer the brighter colors though.

    I don't actually care very much for this figure, but you made it desirable! Good on you. The. Black and. Blue mishmash was lazy and terrible.

    That looks pretty bad ass. A Nemesis Prime paint scheme would look cool also....now you have me thinking.
