    Are you suuuuuuure?

    Honestly people let it go for dirt cheap nowadays so it's a great time to pick it up.

    Yes. They designed the original Sentinel upgrade around swapping the stock RTS head with theirs.

    cool, because i just got combat hero prime and the battle sentinel set (gento plus trailer) is the cheapest way to get a battle tanker, but i despise the stock head on the rts mold

    See here, Battle Tanker

    They released Battle Tanker, which is the trailer, head, and armor set first, before they built the full Gento figure.

    Nice, then that means I can give combat hero prime a better head! Granted it means gento will have the ugly head haha, maybe I can repurpose him as some sort of misshapen clone

    sorry to keep asking potentially dumb questions, but can the waist piece from gento be swapped with the rts prime mold?

    You mean the attachable armor piece or the actual waist?

    The actual waist. The battle tanker came with a replacement front half of the waist to allow the black armor piece to attach. Seeing as getting gento and the tanker from bbts was cheaper than just the tanker everywhere else and I want it to use with combat hero prime, I’m curious if that part can be swapped

    I have one I'd sell for cheaper than BBTS if you're interested.

    goofing around with one of KUMA STYLES photos in photoshop. Just ordered this set from BBTS since the price "TANKED" ;) 

    I've been looking for a companion piece to go with my metallic striker manus and thought this might work good as a sort of Cross Dimensions Orion Pax. If I can get the metallic colors to match manus I think I'm going to paint him up something like this but with more metallic blue on the lower legs and loose the black gradient in place of a nice deep metallic red.

    These photos are literally the reason I bought the figure. Thanks, Kuma!

    I decided to pick this guy up recently after passing for several years. I love how he looks in bot mode and Gento is a big improvement over the RTS G2 Prime.

    My only issue was one of the hinges on Gento was frozen so I had to partially disassemble his chest to transform him into bot mode.

    Overall, pleased with my purchase, just wish I didn't pass for this long and missed the sales that popped up.

    Legacy Laser Prime has me looking at this and the Battle Tanker set. Is this one fully cross-compatable with RTS Prime, or would I be better off picking up a used Battle Tanker if I want that?
