    Man, I am thinking when I get this figure I may have to put a coat of blue paint on him in car mode.
    The blue plastic is just too light from the pictures, will have to see in hand.

    Curious to know how much you both shelled out for this figure? I placed a bid on ebay but when it got close to $30 I bowed out. Now you can buy it outright at only $21. I'm really hoping they correct the color issue because we've been anticipating the release of this figure for a very long time now, far too long not to correct something so easily fixable.

    I won the first one so over 30, only reason I tend to do that is the few times I've waited and Moe haven't appeared. On the other hand I had pretty much reached the highest I'd go

    I have waited and asked Heero when will he be posting them on his site to buy more than one ?
    I want to buy 2 or 3 of this figure and a few other things on his site. So, I'm holding off until then and getting everything in one shipment I hope. Also I guess when he does the repaints in Red and Black I will get a copy.
    Yes, the color is off by the pictures we have seen . I hope it looks better in person, but don't think so.
    Not sure why Heero is selling off only 1 at a time and waiting a few days before he will post the next one?
    Hell, I seen him sell for only ( $10.90 ) already ???

    For some reason Heero always seems to do this, it's a way of getting the most money from the die hard fans IMHO

    I know, maybe it will be fixed when it is added to his site.
    However I am fearful that we may be stuck with the lighter blue already due to him running hundreds of parts like he does all of his figures..
    If that is the case and he has already made up the parts in these colors but has to assemble them as ordered , then I bet that will be it.
    I mean if he has already invested into the parts of this lighter blue color, then I bet were stuck.
    I am guessing on this, but he is no way going to trash his stock.
    If I get my figures in this lighter blue, i will try to spray paint one with a accurate metallic blue paint in car mode.
    However bot mode will still be off in color....fingers crossed!

    Thank You for posting these pictures Simond !

    You have a full set now, look good together.
    Yes, seem the blue is a little light, but it's all we got and will ever get.
    Reprolabels will for sure do stickers, so don't worry about that. Just may be a few months, as they will have to get a copy of him.
    Question: Did it come in a clear plastic tray or loose ?
    And does his feet and other parts feel ok, or loose ?
    Would love your thoughts or review of the WST G1 Tracks !!!!
    Man, maybe NinjaHands will make a WST Wheeljack,Hound, and Sunstreaker at Shapeways one day to finish the sets of Autobot cars.:)

    The blue is too light, but I can cope, I'm not a stickler for consistency thanksfully. All of mine have come loose (in a clear bag in one of his boxes), I've not seen any inserts for Tracks yet unfortunately (I even have all my Optimus' and Seekers in trays and boxes so I'm feeling the lack a little, I am making use of my labeller so I can actually remember which are in which boxes though... I only had time for a quick few photos this morning before work, will have a proper play with him later today probably.

    If you check the page it says he's looking for partners so I'm guessing he's trying to raise finding to produce that. I do hope the colour improves though :)

    Well the price now says $80 so I guess it's up for sale.

    That's the tricky part -- it's actually made of chocolate.
