    Wha-? Prowl's hands, hips (crotch?) and chestplate are all white, at least on the one I've got sitting next to me.

    That was an expensive set for mainly just one figure that I wanted, but there was no way I was settling for the regular headsculpt when this one existed. This figure is and looks awesome though, worth it in my books.
    Fillers ordered and will be applying an autobot badge soon.
    The other mirage is just a hologram of the real figure in my collection, and the other dude is just more autobot fodder.

    You might want to sell the other dude then. There are a lot of people who seem to just want him.

    My fingers are crossed for a price dip because Aragon is really the only part of the set I want.

    With Impactor, I like the face on the Decepticon version better, but I prefer the helmet on the Autobot one. I think I'll be happy enough with the latter whenever it finally arrives.

    If you decide you don't want Aragon, let me know. I've been looking to buy just that figure, as I don't want the other two in the 3-pack enough to warrant purchasing it.

    I can't be bothered with shipping stuff but if anyone in Vancouver BC wants Aragon, PM me an offer. Same with Holo Mirage as well actually.
    Sorry to all y'all not in Van.

    Finally found a solution to never ending Deskbot Clutter. Had Sixshot roll them up into a Katamari Ball to save space.

    Further to what I was saying - after my feelings of buyers remorse on the other exclusives, I bit the bullet and paid over the odds to have Ratchet imported to the UK, and in contrast to the rest I adore him and think he was worth every penny. Maybe its because he was always one of my favorites along with Ironhide when I was little, but the figure is absolutely stunning.

    For what it is, the "White-Optimus" core inner figure from Siege Ultra Magnus isn't too bad at all. For such a blocky looking robot, it does looks quite cool and the articulation isn't too bad either.

    Another thing is, I love the headsculpt on this inner core robot and it's pretty well painted for what it is.

    What I did was paint white on those areas. Most of the red was in the sculpted lines and I wiped away the rest. I did have to paint the leg rectangles and that detail on the foot all white though, but it was worth it.

    Not quite feeling the, um, weapons mode (upside down truck) of Power Punch and Direct Hit. Otherwise, they're fine for being micromasters and their combination mode works when the vehicle is upright. Tried to put on as many blast effects as I could:

    Scale can be interesting. The 'Praxian' car modes seem quite small.
