    It's a big city, lots to do and Prime rarely gets any time to himself.

    Hope he's on his way to you soon!

    Come on ToyHax, hurry up and make some Labels. I need some cool forearm communicator Displays.

    Also need some labels for the inner Matrix Housing in the Chest, and 2 chrome labels for the translucent areas on the hip/waist area there.

    That sucks! I hate it when that crap happens. They almost did that with me cuz I didn't get to the door fast enough, I had to chase the mail-lady down before she drove off.

    Day 10 that my optimus is held hostage at ISC NY. When should I start to worry? And what the hell are they doing with it? Forcing him to sort mail?

    Just picked mine up from post office. Exactly 2 weeks from when ShowZ gave me the tracking#. Too tired to open it now. I’ll play with it tomorrow.

    Can’t get over how much he dwarfs the other giants. 16.8lbs on my bathroom scale.

    Had to touch up a few things here & there. Still need an Autobot logo for the shoulder, though.

    Mine has arrived as well, turns out many of my ideas were correct, and I've started on some of them.
    (May already have a solution for the shoulder that isn't a sticker) And cutting a small section of a old reflective sticker sheet has solved another issue.

    I'm setting up a new shelf and will take pictures later (after the paint has dried)

    Okay still planning some fixes, but this should give you a idea of what I'm going for
    IMG_7449b.jpg
    IMG_7443b.jpg
    The black cartridge on my printer clogged when I was printing the posters so they will have to be reprinted
    I'm also planning to do something about optimus's dead eyes, but haven't decided on painting or stickers yet.
    Already painting matrix and that's looking good. As You can see found a decent stand in for the shoulder logo. Right now it's just held in by friction (yes it's 3D)

    Here is my planned 80's shelf, which will no doubt go through changes over time.

    Got my batteries and found a perfect aluminum autobot symbol. It came from the mpp-10 trailer (mine came with one in the box, replaced the one with some from ebay that were made for the trailer). I just had to file the two pegs of the back and used some double sided tape.
