    All they sell is the version with the v2 head. You can try ShowZ if it’s in stock.

    Yeah, that's one of the first things you're taught with life drawing in art school is to set the hips and shoulders at opposite angles. Makes it look so much more natural. My NBK Mixmaster and Scavenger have that because of the combined mode ankle tilt, and it makes a world of difference

    I can't believe how good that V2 head looks.

    The photo is mine, I used a mixture of Tamiya gray and white, you have to try until you get the color. The bad thing is that when you transform it you can scratch the paint. But as I have this in robot mode and then another to go transforming it, I do not care, it is much better if you paint it.

    I can't give you exacts, but it's somewhere between one gram and one hundred million tons and somewhere between 1x1x1cm2 and 1x1x1 lightyears2.

    You can use a generic hole puncher and just get stickers that are close enough to that color and punch them out.
    That's all I did.
