    So I went to Target today to buy SS-44 because I now realize that SS-32 is never gonna show up at any stores near me, and the trailer looks pretty worth it. Rings up to be sold on January 1st, 2020. I can’t believe it’s still an issue.

    Here is my v2 very happy with it, only problem is I didn’t get the diameter of the clip right and it was very loose, heating it over a candle and bending it fixed the issue tho. I might go back and fix it and make it available on thingiverse or something. I’ll eventually get to sanding and painting lol.

    Here it is in vehicle mode, probably not a thing that exists irl but it looks pretty neat.

    That’s one variation of the hot water trick I’ve never thought of lol. Might try that sometime if necessary p just to experiment. How far away did you hold the figure from the flame?

    It’s so weird seeing an item that was in your hands mere days ago now in someone else’s. Anyone ever experienced that sort of out of body sense? :D 
    Anyway glad you like him, hope my crappy panel lines don’t detract too much :lol  And I hope those somewhat loose knee swivels aren’t an issue for you either! He really is a great voyager. Too bad Tomahawk wasn’t a voyager alongside him

    Get the trailer version. Not only does it have the trailer and weapons, it fixed the backpack issues with ss32, namely adding pins to the pieces prone to popping off

    Like 4-6 inches from the flame for a very short time, keep checking but don’t overheat.

    I’ll also add that I heard the joint tolerances on ss44 are much better than those seen on ss32. If you don’t mind the windows and the lack of paint on the additional items, then definitely get ss44 @Gallade. It’s a great deal for what you get imo.

    Right now, the only thing I care about tomorrow is the reveal of Scrapper and Overload.

    Maybe the panel lines deteriorated? They're not too noticeable but what you can see looks good and honestly, the legs as a whole bother me more than the loose swivels, I really don't like how they're at an angle but oh well, it is a fun figure

    Alternatively, I hope DNA could downsize his head to the size of Nitro's and fit a Headmaster port into it.

    Couldn't stand the red-orange tint, so I color corrected some of them to have more neutral lighting:
