    Hello friends! Photo fishing expedition:

    I’m hoping someone would be so kind as to post a pic of Masterpiece Sunstreaker’s Chip Chase next to a G1 Gears, if you please.

    I’m trying to see if the scale will work. Thanks in advance!

    _DSC4466.jpg Anyone who hasn't tried the Transformers Trading Card Game it is very good! It feels like the last Transformers Pillar that compliments the Toys, Cartoon, Video Games and Comics.

    Megatron has his Sith Lord lightsaber and a handgun with a blast effect. He would have been happy to be involved.

    Aw thanks SQ!! Sadly the onset of summer humidity seems to have made the grid paper get a little bit warped and ripply...not sure if I'll be able to glue it down flat again or I'll just have to live with it!

    Happy to report that this guy still transforms, and no new breakage since the first month or two :thumb  I know it's wishful thinking, but wouldn't it be great if there was a "curing period" or something after which every Hound from this first run would stabilize and incur no new cracks?

    Hi everyone, haven't posted for a while ...
    Anyway, just to say that this little fellow is probably the one I mess about the most at the moment, kind of my "desk bot".
    With MP-44.
    Just wish they did a non painted crotch though.

    You might be able to seal your grid paper with a non-water-based matte clear acrylic spray coating. Test an inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn’t cause anything to peel, wrinkle or bleed, though. Try a few light coats letting each coat dry thoroughly between coats.
