    yea they are in there pretty good... you just need a pair of pliers pad them some how and give it a good tug while rotating back and forth a bit...

    I just spent majority of the night removing both eyes and inserting red led rights into one of the sharkticon eyes. Damn that was hard I have learned so much from this one kit bash just every time I look at it I say I wanna add this to it and then I want to add this to it and I do. This sharkticon will be like no other you have ever seen before.

    Ah! Run! It's Shark City!
    The Mint Fort Max legs look good in bot mode. I just wonder how they will manage in Shark mode. The eye patch is a cool touch. It works well on him.
    One suggestion- It's fine to add pics to your original post so they show up in the forum list, but you should leave the old ones up and add also the new ones to the last page. That way people can follow along in a linear way.

    I like the eye patch and the tusks. Makes him more "Gnaw" less "generic sharcticon". the light up eye gimick is cool too, but personally I'm not fan of that stuff.

    The bot legs are still an issue tho'. The second pic makes me think "robot walking on his hands" rather than "alien animal alt mode". I think you should look for something that blends better with tail segment so their not so obviously legs draging around.

    I am considering re doing the feet so that the feet have propellers and that it suited the shark mode or something like that. I know what you're all saying but seriously I honestly CAN'T find any other legs that make his legs look in balance.
