    It took a month for me to get a replacement right hand for TC......

    TBH I totally forgot about it till a pair of hands turned up yesterday, the really cool thing was this tho:

    Hmm debate going after my missing missile racks for TC now. It would be nice to have them even I never stick them on the figure.

    So I'm happily painting my MP Soundwave's chest compartment with a sky blue and I look up at TC I think.....hang on a sec!!

    20 mins later (crappy Xperia Play camera aside) this is the result:

    I reckon it's a pretty good match!!

    EDIT - changed pic to show block colour on Soundwave too as a match.

    Nice. You know you're going to have to explain exactly what paint that is.

    It's dried a little bit darker but I'm happy with it. Revell enamel No:50.

    EDIT - I'll upload another clearer pic in a sec

    EDIT 2 - Changed pic above.

    Nope. Just gone over for a look and it looks spot on. No different to the pic I posted earlier. In fact I just asked the Mrs to ask if she could tell if I had painted any blue on him and she got close, had a real good look and said it all looks the same colour. It doesn't even look darker to me anymore....it must have been the lighting coupled with drying paint.

    I'm very happy with it, it's the TC iGear should have released now.

    How is the plastic quality of these? I have Faith Leader and find he's a little light and cheap feeling.

    Faith Leader was infamous for feealing cheap.

    My coneheads are within striking distance of the real thing.....maybe just a tiny bit more lightweight feeling?
