    The one time I transformed mine, I started with the legs and was very impressed with the process...thought it was smooth, intuitive, and had about the best end results for an MP scaled Prime to date (the only competition would be TW Primorion...but he's not exactly MP scale, because TW is...who knows WTF they're thinking?) Anyhow, it wasn't till I got to the cab section that I understood what all the hubbub about the transformation was about. It wasn't a nightmare, but it wasn't nearly as smooth, intuitive, and enjoyable...but it at least still had optimal end results.

    After some painting fixings and the new head, the TE-01 had undoubtedly been very good as a representation of the Optimus Prime of the G1 series, with the exception of its bumper-butt, that's why I decided to manufacture a new ass for him.

    Now the TE-01 is the Optimus of the series from all angles.

    You can see all the pictures here:

    It's excellent. You are great skill.
    I also want a phoenix. But because the value is high, I'm waiting for the oversized ko Siege-jetfire...:p

    Yea. But I haven't done the mod to it to make it fit properly. I bought the wrong one, for the KO. But from what Ive seen it can be modded just been to busy to do it.

    I was just curious because the version on TFSource had mixed reviews, but it looks like a big improvement.

    Used blue polypropylene to give the frosted affect and painted the matrix chamber (inside the cab) white.
