    Yeah same, my SS bee is perfectly fine apart from the smaller door wings (Those second wings that are clipped on the doors) as they do sometimes pop off.

    I am in the middle of doing a repaint for a friend of mine on a ROTF Strafe to turn him into Mindwipe.. never knew how much fun this figure is!
    his altmode is clean and sturdy and his botmode holds up quite well

    That looks great, but how much does Mindwipe go for these days that re-painting is the easier option?

    I got him back from eBay for around $40 luckily, but I’ve seen it go as high as $80 or $90 MISB, it’s ridiculous. It’s a great movie figure but it’s not that great

    I would've much rather had the '76 Camaro Bee with the weathered, err, custom faded paint...

    I would prefer all the carbots just a little smaller, or everyone else just a little larger, but overall this scale is pretty damn good


    On a slightly different topic, my evasion Optimus is the perfect height compared to my ss Decipticreeps. But he still looks weird next to them and I think it's because his head is just a little bit too small, while the Cons all have larger, better proportioned heads.

    I think I see a way I could fit a slightly larger head in there and keep the transformation, but the problem is that I don't have any slightly larger Optimus heads. Next size up I have is the Rotf leader head and that's too big. Are there any Optimus figures out there with a head size between the evasion figure and the old leader?

    might be or not.. he does not like how the original Mindwipe looks so he wanted a custom in black red and gunmetal.. and he had a Strafe laying around for me to play with so I offered to help him out.

    Ill post a picture of when he is done if people would like that

    Nice find! I'm going to have to try that when I get home.

    Speaking of Mr. Gunface, I got my Studio Series Lockdown to wield a gun for a face.

    Now he just needs his Spark extractor and he'll be all armed up. 20180819_155050.jpg

    I also acquired some hands for Blackout.

    Kind of ironic that at the end of Bayverse, Optimus Prime somewhat adapted the looks and feelings (humans no longer being unkillable) towards humanity of his mentor: Sentinel Prime.
