    Man, I hate this time of year. I could have bought this and had it already but the fam wanted a small xmas list for me, and this was on it and I was forbade to buy myself anything off this list. The wait is now killing meeeee. My only real concern is how to make a Autobot badge look good over that raised hood.

    I've been thinking about that too... I might try a clear backed insignia instead of white to make the ridges less apparent.

    I'm expecting Reprolabels to probably come out with one that's sliced into like 7 pieces to allow it to contour to the hood.

    Could prob to that yourself too.

    Doesn't Speedbump have a raised centre part on his hood too? Seen lots of insignia on his chest fine.

    I also wouldn't be surprised if Repro offers an entire hood replacement sticker with the insignia already on it.

    Anyone know if there are waterslide decals available somewhere out there. I've had a lot of issues sourcing stuff like that. Would love to use waterslide on this to minimize the edges.

    That would indeed follow their "cover everything" approach. Might even add another shade of black to the mix. [​IMG]

    I don't want mine. Sent you a PM.

    As for Trailbreaker, I'm really digging this figure. My only complaint is that they didn't paint the grey plastic parts silver but thats a minor one. For me, this guy fills the bill for Trailbreaker on my shelf.

    Ha!

    But truthfully, perhaps it's reprolabels that will solve this two tone dilemma.

    I'm more than happy with Terraegis. He just fits.

    In this video, you can see an insignia on the hood. It's lifted a bit around the edges, but perhaps some hair dryer heat could fix that?

    Peaugh has an update for the final version. It's under 4 minutes. He didn't mention the color issue even though it's very clearly there when he turns him around.

    I was disappointed that he didn't even comment on it, even if it was to say that it didn't bother him.
