Leader Class Optimus Prime (AG420)
TFTM toys were somewhat deceiving...but not for a Radicon!! It needed plenty of paint apps, and Optimus Prime needed some too!
So, I dismantled it completely ,except for the head and torso, then I used a lot of masking tape to protect all those places i didn't want to spray with Krylon Chrome. That thing isn't half bad, but don't expect it to look like the color shown on the cap. Almost every grey part were painted that way. The other ones were drybrushed with testors silver argent. I added some details, like the missing blue panels on its upper front-legs or the flames on its lower inside-legs.Testors gold/red/silver/flat black/mix of blue and black were used to make those details. He used to have a sword, but i think it was cursed. That thing kept falling apart, no matter what i would used. Who cares about a sword anyway??! Yeah... right...
