    Alright! Got the arms situated! Planet mode complete!! Don't ask me how long it took, lol! I took many breaks because I had other things going on. I don't know if anyone is interested but when clipping the legs, I found it helpful to remove the head and collar, and move those top panels off to the side slightly so that you have a little more room to see what your doing. Then you can re-attach the head/collar/panels in order to attach the feet panels. For most of the process I followed @Tman978's video. Very easy to follow along! :thumb  By the time I finished, I ended up with another big smile on my face. Just an amazing figure! Plan to add the spikes after supper. :D

    67 days later, 40 of which were in the United States, and he arrives. Great timing too! The shipping took so long it fell off the USPS site and when it finally arrived I was no longer getting text messages about it. So I was on my way to visit my parents for the weekend and I was half through the 3 hour drive when I decided to check on another package and I noticed it was arriving today. I hadn't had an update since July 20th when it said it was an hour and half away from me. (Pittney Bowes :mad: ). So I drove back home. All that being said I am glad its here. It was aggravating me to no end. This and the fact I got Baroness this morning, today is a good day.

    Hey! That's me in that video!

    (More accurately, that's a screenshot of the screw hole cover/spike installation guide I wrote, that @foxracing put on the first page of the thread).

    If you'd have told me even 10 years ago that a kid who wears a Batman mask and acts like he wants to have sex with his toys would mention me in a Youtube video and that it'd be the highlight of my week I'd have said you were crazy. But here we are...

    He's passionate. That brand of funny can easily cross over into obnoxious, but so far I find him enjoyable. Him, Emgo, and BSF are the reviewers I've been listening to the last few months . . . but I also get the impression that they are the 'Big 3' around here, if you will.

    The top reviewers I watch are emgo for actual reviews, Ben to support him, jobby for a laugh, and thew because I love watching him and the way he likes even terrible toys. (Not to mention that amazing vocabulary)

    I forgot about even wishing for a recolor of Cell. If they went the light grey/dark grey instead of the blue-ish and kept the same or similar orange, I would probably have to get that version.

    I only discovered Jobby the past few months, while EmGo, Thew, Ben, BSF, etc have all been around since I fell into this hole back in 2016. Jobby definitely walks the fine line, good thing for fast cuts. :p

    Hahaha! How dare I?!?! I kept trying to sneak a peak and angle him so I could see inside and remembered that the collar popped off. It worked!

    I think it's because he reviews a whole ton of other stuff aside from TFs. He's great though, very funny and doesn't ever start singing a stupid song or complaining about a figure when he doesn't even know how it's supposed to transform. Seems like a good dude.
