    This was the first time I was brave enough to take my figures outdoors and risk getting them dirty! Worth it, I think, I'm very happy with how these turned out. Here's an alternate shot that I think may have turned out better than the rhododendron one:

    Oh, and @Kuma Style Your photos are among the best on this forum, they always look amazing. Thanks for taking the time to post them. I'm still very new at photography (it's only been a year since I got a camera), but I have learned that it takes a fair bit of time and patience to put out something that's decent, seeing you put out photos of such a consistently excellent quality is really impressive.

    beta is an awesome figure...I was tempted to get a 2nd or get the re-edited Stray and use the bonus head that came with tfcon SG Stray. I use the multicolors as the circle of Light members with FP DaiZ, Planet X Kadmos...and was thinking getting FP Trianix Alpha.

    The mold is pretty good! If I could change one thing though, it would be the forward arm movement.
    I too am also interested in getting DaiZ, ordered kadmos and he should be getting here soon.

    the re-edited comes with that pistol? LOL That alone may be worth the reason for getting it again...that looks awesome regardless of where it came from.

    I don't believe they have a spot. I just keep mine in a baggy all the time unless I am taking pictures.

    I know MMC usally has great plastic quality but this looks even better from the pictures and reviews I've seen, so my question is how would you rate the quality of plastic and overall build of the figure.

    Mmc plastic has been very good for a long while now so I can't really say if he's better he feels as good as anything else mmc has made last few years.

    The reason Mors looks so pretty is far more to do with the nature of Helex's character design being ideal for translating in to toy form more than anything else. Whenever you have a TF that does minimal folding and can keep a lot of its robot self visible in alt mode you get way fewer seams, gaps, screw holes etc so lots n lots of nicely clean surfaces, big hunks of solid plastic etc. Tor and Stellarus are the same so I cannot wait to have both of those as well.
