    is it right to assume that we might start seeing Ratchet out on the shelves by the end of the week at Target?

    Quick question. Apart from silver nose and some lime green spots here and there is his head painted or is it just plain grey molded plastic? It looks like he could use some darker grey on his face.

    I was thinking the same! Will do the same as i did with Jazz... i painted all the plain plastic in gunmetal. Makes the figures look much better.

    Gun metal with some silver brushing will make him pop!

    Can you let me know what you did with Jazz? Did you use gundam marker with a very fine tip or maybe airbrush and some masking tape? I would like to try with mine but I don't want to dismantle the figure and customize it, I'm just going to give it some minor repaint.

    I wouldnt use a gundam marker but a fine brush, some tamiya paint and a steady hand will do the trick!

    May I ask when you pre-ordered yours from Target? I did mine on July 15, but it hasn't shipped yet.

    I really hope this means TFsource will put their pre order release date back. December seems alittle insane.
