Reprolabels are great for replacing damaged labels, if that's your thing, but some of their...umm...
Original works are a bit overkill.
...Seriously, he reminds me of
Mr. Cool ICE.
On that note, I STILL have not found a UC.Prowl that I considered decent enough to shell out for. The paint apps are always sloppy or just plain look terrible... I've searched through DOZENS of them and not found a single decent one. I'm seriously considering skipping him entirely until Henkei, because I'm not desperate enough to buy multiples just so I can assemble ONE decent figure.
My Sunstreaker saw the following mods:
-Vents on head wings filled in with proper yellow paint instead of the half-assed spray apps.
-Face repainted silver, since the spray apps missed the sides o fhis nose completely.
-Sprue thorns carved off with x-acto, sanded with high grit in places.
-Shoulder joints "Plugged" with sculpting putty and painted, so his arms don't fall out of their sockets.
-Brake/Turn signals repainted light red, given glossy transparent red topcoat.
-Headlights popped off, painted chrome silver underneath, glued back on.
-Engine/Gun painted silver, highlighted.
-Internal details of robot parts detailed with gunmetal/dull gold paint.
-Thigh Windows given reflective backing behind them.
-Ball joints treated with CA glue to remedy loose joints.
It's a lot of work, but he looks and transforms spectacularly!
