    I actually bought some stl files someone on the forum made for the Siege mould so I'm going to have some printed out for Ironhide, Crosshairs and Ratchet, save a little cash that way.

    Nice, I went the preprinted route simply because I don't have a printer of my own

    Yeah he's just a lot of fun. Too bad.none if the cons I have work perfectly for the over the shoulders configuration. On the upside thanks for giving me a good display option for his guns. They are too loose on the top shoulder ports.
    For some.reason I'm feeling like we need a third aquatic monster nook for the quints.

    Updated Merc Crew + Centurion Drone. I currently don’t have a display ready to put the 1 drone I have in, so he hangs out with my Merc crew. I like to think of him as the IG Unit/Assassin Droid of the Group. :p

    "Hey Grapple, how was your trip to Japan?"
    "Oh, it was simply sublime! There's just so much to love about Japanese culture: the customs, the folklore, the food, the music, the architecture... oh, especially the architecture! That being said, their pranks have enamoured me even more than their constructing prowess...."
    "Pranks?"

    I too feel for that misfortuned miniature marauder, no Sharkticon should have to go though that. Still, it could always be worse:

    Got to say, I'm loving Fuzer and Blast Master. They might be the best little TF's there size I own, even with Blast Master's balance issues. I also like that they feel like they've got some actual transformation to them compared to most other Micromasters. And now pics.

    "Now where did that Autobot go?"
    "Uh Snapdragon-"
    "Not now Krunk!"

    Five mm ports are fun. specially when it lets you piggyback and look good like these two. 100_0415.JPG
    "Aaaahhh! They're on top of us! And there's two of them!"

    And here, enjoy a Kaiju attack.

    They're pretty great huh. You can get Blast Master to stand by himself with straight legs by spreading his legs and pointing his toes outward a bit.

    Like so:

    I just got the ZXB-03 upgrade kits for the Earthrise Datsuns. https://www.tfsafari.com/products/pre-order-zxb-03-upgrade-kits-weapons-for-wfc-earthrise-datsun-brothers-prowl-smokescreen-bluestreak-upgrade-kit-painted

    Overall impressions are good. Everything fit great, with the exception of Prowl and Bluestreak's rifle pegs needing a little filing down to fit comfortably in their hands. Prowl and Bluestreak's shoulder weapons articulate up and down with a pinned joint that works great. I do wish Bluestreak and Smokescreen's parts used a shiny silver paint instead of the grayish silver they did use. One unexpected and very cool detail is the little red translucent lens details on Bluestreak's shoulder weapons.

    The wheel clip caps are a thoughtful touch but don't fix the wheels. They kind of upgrade them from janky to a slightly-less-janky, different janky. It's an improvement, but barely. There are also abdomen gap fillers for Prowl and Bluestreak included. They'll rarely be noticed but they are a cool touch.
