It is just missing some paint in some places but they are very small. I will probably find some small bottles of paint to fix the problem.

Collection Count: Varies from time to time News Credits: 1 | odd, it shows this thread is 2 pages, and yet every time I try to go to page two, it redirects back to page one. either way, my prowl has the sticky paint problem. Also, my sunstreakers right arms seem just slightly loose, but nothing too horrible. Great idea for prowls white lines in the black though, I'll have to get out my sharpie's too. Octankor so far has to be my favorite. He's just fun. | |

I forgot, I also took a black Sharpie marker to the edges of the black area of the car front/chest, to knock out the little white 'cracks' between parts. | How long does it take for it to dry? I've heard of people doing this, and did not think it was a permanent fix. Is it? How well does it match to his factory paint app? Can you show a pic? | |

Now they look like smoke stacks. | |

As they are, Powerglide can either stand with his legs right up close together or way too wide apart. This can be fixed thus: 
Powerglide's hip joints are ratchet joints. remove the first notch on the bottom of each ratchet, and you give him a lot more posability. The hip joints are tight enough to let him stand with no problems.  | |

Join Date: Apr 2008 Posts: 5,051 Location: Long Island, New York Collection Count: Counting them would require effort News Credits: 8 | Just crap door/roof paint on Prowl, If the henkie version has better paint then I might be tempted to get it even though I don't like where the chrome was placed. | |
