    What a handsome bunch they are. Something very satisfying about seeing them all together like that.

    Love the group together. Also love that Grimlock. It’s a shame they made him just before they started making them in scale with each other

    I also noticed the stock on HLJ and might buy for the same purpose, battle against my forthcomming mp-44 ...
    But are those chips unavoidable if you transform several times mp-36, because I like to mess about with my figures (with care of course)

    Ha, awesome, love the smoke effect! I guess Megatron really is Optimus's brother in arms (in his arm) after all ;)

    I’ve had this guy on my PC tower for a while now, but felt a wave of appreciation all of a sudden.

    Hi all. New here, and although I'm not new to Transformers I'm getting back into the world now, and really loving looking at everybodies pictures. I've just got myself an MP-17+ Prowl & an MP-20+ Wheeljack (arrived this morning) and am just a little bit ion love with how much they take me back to the original cartoon. Now just got to keep the Constructions at bay

    Battle damaged MP Cordon... That really bites.

    My youngest nephew (2 years and eight months old) came over for a three week hoilday with the rest of the family to YVR from Hong Kong and he goes into my room and looks at my Masterpiece shelf. He knows that its not to be played with as his dad has told him.

    He actually likes all the variety of colours of each ones and he's currently playing with my Generations Blurr in car mode as he likes playing with small die cast cars (Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Maisto).

    Don't know if I'm one of the coolest Uncles that he had met so far. :D

    Started cutting and measuring for the Autobot Shuttle scene. The screen grabs doesn't do me any favors as the animation lines don't translate well into 3-D. Also had to correct the angle of the ramp. It's 60* in the movie but too steep in real life. After messing around with 45*, I settled on 30* as my ramp angle and it seems to work for Sunstreaker.

    Still, the bottom part of the ramp is a very rough cut just to establish spacing. I'll have to make the next ramp wider.

    This little project will take a while. I hope to have it done by the time Hound is released.

    Funny to think that this was the second ever Masterpiece mould. Look far far we’ve come! I love this jet mode, it’s still one of the best looking MP Alts.

    Takara “USA Edition” in case anyone was wondering. I can’t believe I actually got this fucker to stand like this(6 seconds, a new record!). 2A94AB85-0026-43FF-9ACB-00C5A14C6179.jpeg 11ECFCEA-5992-44E4-9AA9-6267FF83A3E7.jpeg E55D9068-2AA6-4767-A22F-246EC0D7E161.jpeg

    Looking at my own post and I just realized I never noticed the crown and epaulets badge below the cockpit before! :rolleyes:
