    Finally scooped him up today. Really impressed with this mold. Head sculp is amazing too. Much better then the original one. Paint apps that r seen in jet mode r ehhh, i can live with it. I keep my seekers in robot mode anyway so its all good.

    Don't care for the Reflector tampograph or "Sass Dragon," but probably not enough to remove them.

    Very close to removing the G1 intake one, though. Just looks really bad.

    I LOVE the Sonic Boom, though. So much.

    I would have been ok with the sonic boom tampos, but it was printed on crooked on the right tail, as were the stripes (i think almost all the TCs i've seen pictures of have this problem). So i just painted over them and fixed the stripes myself.

    My stripes and sonic boom look fine on both tail fans so maybe it was just one production run that had the issue?

    As for the tampos i like the tattoos he has. I just think it adds more personality to the figure.

    I just dont like the retro ones on the intakes. The tatoos are cool with me. But thats why i dont buy reprolabels for modern figures because 75% of the sticker sheets is those retro markings.

    I will admit the intake ones are my least favorite but they dont bother me enough to remove them.

    Mine just arrived from eBay today. Love this figure. His right arm is very slightly loose but no big deal at all, it can still hold a pose.

    The "tattoos" don't bother me either - he's gonna be displayed in 'bot mode anyway, and they're hardly visible then :)
