    This figure started out as a commissioned piece that the original buyer decided to replace with a Megatron. Prime was painted with Alclad II mirror chrome that was followed by multiple light coats of House of Kolors candy automotive urethane paints and several extremely light coats of high gloss clear coat. He was given slight battle damage to reflect his look on the show. He was also given a high intensity blue LED in his head. He will be available on eBay this weekend (5/26/2012)

    As always, a full gallery can be seen on my facebook page:

    Is it not one of the greatest figures you've ever held? I love this toy.
    Great metallics. Much more show-like. Maybe a bit heavy on the paint scratches, in truck mode anyway.
    Eye LEDs look excellent.

    I imagine you'll get some major bank for that one. It's totally worth it too. :D

    Damn man, you made the original FE figure look like garbage....still wish I had that FE though. The custom looks amazing. I kind of want to see this magic done on the RID figure now.

    I agree, there's just something about this toy that seems so....right.


    Amazing work. It's amazing what some paint apps do for his mid-section.
    You made it look so shiny and purdy!:dunce 

    R!
