    That purple barrel is actually not bad. Shit. Now it looks like I'm gonna be spending more money on this bad boy.

    With leg extenders and silver/green thighs it wouldn't be too much purple either.

    That's why I think they'd be better painted......with leg extenders they'd need painting anyways. Mine are on the way but not sure whether to go silver or green at the mo..... decisions decisions.....

    Green is more G1 accurate but silver really works too looking at Eddies.......but then looking at Giant black works really well too!!

    If they did do that, the price on the kit might be double of what Herc actually costs.

    where do you have your cape connected to, because I bought a second iGear cape to do the same but was confused as to where I could put the loops around.

    to be honest im so disappointed in the head mold i just cant even mess with it, its not terrible i halfway like it but im just going to wait for the new head in the tfc-007 set, i sold all the invulnerable heads i had anyways for a friend. i will buy new faces for the new head though, im working on getting a whole nother set for bot modes. i love this tfc devy so much though i have high hopes for when im done moding him, i had planned on getting giant but morei look at it the more i take pride in having a bigger more solid figure, anyways yeh hope all is well

    It's only a shell. It'll replace the Green outer shell of the drum.

    Yes. Crazy Devy's barrel is a reshell kit for the existing barrel. You swap the green outter parts for the new purple.

    This post covers it.

    Yea I was bummed about that too. I guess cant be too surprised by CD though since it was almost too cheap to be true to get a whole barrel.

    It looks awesome on the combined mode, but I'm really not digging it on the cement mixer. In this case, I think TFC made the right choice. A new blade for Neckbreaker though would be well worth it and look great in all modes.

    thanks for all the info...you helped me make a decision...

    why would you want to? :D  ...

    now all he needs is grey or black thighs :lol 

    black does indeed look really good...one of the things that kept me from going that route is that i thought the wheels might get lost on the black thighs...and i like being able to notice the wheels...i think what helps them show up so well on Giant is that they have yellow centers making them pop...
