I wouldn't have thought I'd like that but it actually looks very eye catching. My hope is that MS re-pops this mold with shinier paint, frosted opaque window inserts and the white legs would be a nice touch too.

 

I’d be happy to. If anyone's interested PM me and I’ll get you a quote. I still want to get my colleague to run another test with a different resin to see if we can minimize bubbles. I’ll post some of those shots once I’ve got them installed.

 

Sounds great! Keep me in the loop but I'd love a set. They're great because you can swap them out easily if you want a different look going from stock to blue toon. I can get behind that

Yeah, it’s the main reason I enlisted help for this. Painting them seemed too final. Paper lining seemed too little.

 

You monster!

 

That is so much better. How is transformation?

 

I let it cure and sealed it so its exactly the same. I wont be transforming this guy anymore hes going on the shelf like this

 

Nice! I don’t feel like painting mine but if they sold one with white instead I’d be tempted to double dip which I rarely do. I don’t hate it the way it is but that is seriously striking!

 

Where do you get reflective films?

 

this guy looks so good leading the autobots

 

That’s a really good looking Superion.

 

1 way mirror Car tints

 

Great photos! Where's the throne from?

 

theres also reflective light blue duck tape

 

This SO reminds me of the end of the Emgo MP Sideswipe video skit:

Prime: Hey Sideswipe...look what I have...it's the new toy figure of me! The kids love it and it's flying off the shelves! Have you ever had a figure like this made of you?

Sideswipe: .....No sir...I haven't.

Prime: Awww...that's unfortunate. Well I'm going to be in my quarters playing with myself if you need me.

Sideswipe: .....you have no idea how wrong that sounds do you?

 

Thanks for the suggestions. Chase bank is currently looking into it. The USPS says because there was no insurance on the package they can’t do anything. TF-Direct says that there isn’t anything they can do, but wishe me luck. So Chase is my last hope. After that I’m done.

I was going to, but chickened out. I don’t want to ruin him like I did Siege Megatron. 

Love what you did there. I ordered some reflective film from Amazon. Hoping mine comes out as good as yours.

 

Funny you should mention Emgo…

 

Just got mine and so happy I picked him up and love the toon colors, can't wait for someone to make cell shade stickers for his cheat. Also fun side note, if you have the shadow Fisher upgrade set for mp10, the axe works on ms-01 too and holds on good.(tip don't put it straight on, put it on like mp10 but at an angle with the fist).

One annoying thing is my figures head tends to droop down on its own anyone experience this and have a fix?

EDIT: actually comparing the battle damage windows from ms-01 to mp10's their are almost the same size that I actually think you can get away with the mp10's cell shade set from toyhax, will order a set and let people know.

 

Im gonna have to sell my IT-01. It doesn't have the bulk to stand next to MS-01, in my opinion. Went ahead and ordered a used Despotron - that seems about the right bulk from the pics Ive seen. I figure I will spray it with some dullcote to bring down the metallic shine a bit and then it should be good.

Might use the IT-01 for parts. I see some folks slap the MP36 head on Despotron. Hmm, that should help it match MS-01 even more.
