    Wow, that looks AMAZING! I think it looks better proportioned than the import Dual Model Kit. Great work!

    would it be possible to make a parts sheet?

    And if you cover the inside with superglue it becomes almost as strong as plastic and should be able to hold up the weight

    hey man! ....im not sure what exactly you mean by parts sheet :/ ...and about the glue, im filling the insides with newspaper and hotglue so its pretty hard. The problem is he falls because the 'JOINTS' arent strong enough [the feet are on hotglue ball joints and they pop right off the feet, and he swivels backward/forward at his thigh-crotch joint] i dont know if that made sense :! ..

    Maybe you could use lego exoforce joints, they are quite strong. And what i meant with a partsheet is a sheet of paper on which all the parts you used for the figure are printed, so they can be cut out and folded.

    i hope i explain it well enough as english is not my native language, if anyone else can explain it better, please feel free to do so:)

    I LOVE this! If I had a choice between owning this or the AOE Optimus Dual Model Kit -- I'd definitely go with this! Everything about this is amazing from the detailing to the unbelievably clean craftsmanship. Great work! Looking forward to seeing more like this!

    i think i would leav it just the way it is
    painting on just some parts of the papper may effect the weight and balance
