    True indeed. Technically even today this thread,http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/440366-tfcc-sideburn-hand.html#post6435476 was created before this one.

    Looks nice. I wonder how a custom painted Fansproject Rodimus armor would look on this guy.

    No battle damage. The yellow's supposed to be over his left eye. The original Sideburn had the same thing. This figure's paintjob is an homage to that.

    Look above...

    As you can see in the pictures, the bio card has the artwork showing the same scheme as the figure's paintjob.

    The figure is as he's meant to be.

    Upon closer inspection mine has a screwed up paint job on the face too. The gold above the left eye was sprayed ON the eye instead.

    Mine's perfect. I do feel bad for the Chinese kids that had to do those rubber bands, though.

    Can't wait to get mine. Did any of you guys get a shipping notice, or did it just arrive? I can't remember if they send out shipping notices on the freebie figurese or not.

    the mods are busy probably busy, as they tend to have real lives outside the internet. one thread in feedback, and another one that probably got bumped to the bottom of the page, if not the 2nd page, so someone probably saw this thread and said "oh hey, that's news" and dropped it on the front page...

    is it really that big a deal? news credits don't really get you anything...

    Yeah, good news is good news. Does it matter if some people consider this Sideburn thread the best one EVER? Shouldn't we just bask in the glory that IS Sideburn? :p
