    I don't know about any company making upgrade parts for the elbows of this figure but this comes with fillers for the biceps which you can see in the picture are installed with the gun halves attached.

    I think you meant forearm fillers. The inside elbow fillers are from Shadow Fisher - https://tfsource.com/shadow-fisher/arm-kit/

    No, I meant bicep fillers. The parts that the shadow fisher kit goes over are the biceps and not the elbows of the figure. The DMY kit also comes with fillers that are installed in the pic you quoted but don't stand out as much because they are gray/black (the site comes with both colors for each arm.)

    If it's not very visible in the picture quoted you can use the instructions echo posted for reference.

    I don't know why, but I had this sitting near my desk. I think all the parts circled were from the dmy kit (?) and I never bothered to even unpackage the other one. Hope it helps.

    No worries, so nice to see pics of this again taken by a pro! Great job. Still a fantastic looking combiner, IMHO...I got a fever, and it what it needs is more Stunticons!

    [​IMG]

    Oof this one is long ago sold out...Eddie and I kept passing along there was more demand thru our contacts but TBH I'm not even sure DMY is still in business. I was kinda hoping they would request we do a coloration for the A3U Stunticons but oh well.

    As for the Shadow Fisher arm fillers I'm not sure, perhaps they are easier to come by...

    In my experience the Shadow Fisher ones fit TERRIBLY, even sanding/carving them didn't help.

    @echotransformer and @G.I.EDDIE : I would love to see your set getting made for the g2 set eventually. Hope you guys can make that happen somehow.

    At the least I'll probabely go and grap that toy gun set.

    Man @Kuma Style you're really bringing back the good memories with all the quality chug figures.

    It's taken a really long time, considering this is a straight repaint with no new molding or accessories.

    Fansproject is out of business. They are not making any new figures.

    New figures? Not looking great

    This particular release? We have seen a prototype in color not that long ago, and it's being run by A3U which has said nothing about cancellation

    Hot diggity damn.

    This thread is still alive and kicking I see. Amazing for a size (deluxe) that has pretty much gone extinct outside of Hasbro’s junk on your local Walmart and Targets shelves.

    I still think this guy looks awesome for his tiny size. Intimidating indeed. Pun intended and everything.

    As for FP making new figures .. likely not. Their last figures, I believe, were the original Dinobot voyager ladies. At least the smartened up on their final release(s) — too little too late however.

    Same, would love if MT picked up the mantle and at least did a Superion to go with this guy, or an Abominus to go with their Computron (but making due with the Hasbro version)

    Edit: would not object to an MT Bruticus to go with their Defensor either.
