    No need to shave shave anything off to accommodate for the larger head size?

    I definitely like him, I just wish he was perfect.

    Thanks though.

    You do. You might want to go back a few pages in the thread. I recall there were a few posts on how to do that and unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be a straight forward procedure.

    Just located the posting and the link (in Chinese language) enclosed on how to achieve that: 【图片】果柱换蛇头2.0【变形金刚玩具吧】_百度贴吧

    It seems that the head swapping and the chest gap mod were done by the same person: 【图片】回复:晒一晒果柱改大蛇头,感觉不错,感觉眼睛刻画的比果头漂亮【变形金刚玩具吧】_百度贴吧

    Also, I do not own any of the figures as I no longer collecting transformers toys and I don’t know how to do it exactly. If you want to give that a go, I think there is some risk you need to bear.

    I don’t own either one yet, but I’m honestly surprised anyone who owns both would prefer the BMB. at least visually, it seems like the BA beats out BMB in all aspects of shaping, paint and accuracy, even the chest, which isn’t perfect on either, is still more correctly shaped on the BA.

    I obviously can’t make any judgement on the in hand sturdiness of the figure, but from all reports, don’t both of them feel pretty much completely solid?

    The yellow on the front of the truck probably bugs me more than anything else. Why is it bright lemon yellow? It was never yellow. It should be more of an orange-golden colour. ShowZ need to hurry up and dispatch their orders so I can stop nitpicking looking at other people's pictures.

    It's so close yet there seems to be plenty that could be improved upon. I think I'll hold off and see if anyone takes the baton and tries another even better version.

    Actually, that orange should've been a metallic Amber color that fades into the red. If you watch the movies, you'll see it isn't a solid color that is just there, it shifts, almost. I achieved a similar effect on my DMK model, but sadly I don't think I'd be able to do so with this, due to the flames being involved. :(

    There was a chest mod done to it, If you go back to page 182 I believe, there are steps on how to do the mod.
