    Guess that would explain the re-release of sixshot, someone should link this thread topic in a msg to whoever is responsible for the encore re-issues. If they see it and see interest from people who is to say they wont do it, better to do something then nothing at all. Also when do you think the next re-issue after fort max will come out? what are thier release dates like in terms between figure releases.

    Well on my Scorponok head I've ordered it in two different materials and just gotta wait a couple of weeks for delivery. I'll post pics when I get it, if it fits. it's smaller now and hollow, didn't see the point in having the full head block when it should be inside his helmet. and it makes it cheaper.

    I tend to prefer vintage to re-issue, but I'd make a pretty big exception to Black Zarak, or any re-issue that could correct GPS, making it vastly preferable to the original.

    [​IMG] On yeah here's my head, coloured with markers (sharpies) just to test, should look better with paint, also I don't have a helmet.

    So I photoshopped one on.

    Still gotta make some adjustments, maybe make the lower part of his face smaller

    Working from these:

    I would gladly buy a Reissue Black Zarak if it meant no GPS.

    That head is awsome if no third party comes out with a head for him I will do a kitbash of that head looks rough though to be honest could be smoother.

    Since I just got Fort Max two weeks ago, I definately now want a Scorponok. I hope he is the next reissue.
