    I had some good results...here are some suggestions for V1 green...I think V2 green is nearly the same:

    EDIT: Start at around 4:40 mark, for some reason it doesn't seem to respect my timestamp link

    I was actually ready to ask if anyone found a good color match for this figure if I wanted to paint the thighs. Thanks!

    Glad it was helpful...one thing to note is that some people have actually had luck stripping the silver paint off the thighs to reveal the green underneath. It's another option...not really sure which one is easier.

    has anyone made Toon head sculpts for these guys? Specifically Bonecrusher, Mixmaster and Hook?

    or even tips on paint to make them better?

    LEKCUSTOM did this Mixmaster, and idk the wash or whatever really brings out the face.

    also everyone needs to follow that guy checkout this Unicron for proof:

    Even my longhaul looks ok with a little paint, just not sure if i should paint the eyes sparkly or just normal shiny red?

    Just completed my order for the orange Version of this beast. I’ll see how I feel about it in person. I’m sure I’ll like it. Glad I waited. $391 to my place after my store credit and their price drop to $399. TFsource is the place.

    yay!!!

    Oh that's interesting. I was unaware of this being an option. Thanks again!

    It's not an option for v1, for info. The perfect edition version has green thighs with silver paint, it's been confirmed that v1 does not

    He’s good. The orange is a little off of the G2, but not too bad. He’s pretty solid except for the treads on Bonecrusher that are kind of flimsy. I think definitely worth $400.

    Thanks for the input. Yea, the orange is a tad off, but I can live with it for $399. The $499 was a bit much and so I am happy TFS dropped it today. It was a no brainer. I think with the right lighting and backdrop I can make him shine. LOFL! :rolleyes: :D

    I knew.:p 

    But every Constructor is now sold out at Show Z. I think that a "perfect" weathered could appear not so late. i'm still very happy with my Dirty Yellow, i don't know if i would buy another weathered green - i mean green for real.

    LOFL. I just want to see what it looks like. If I don’t like it I’ll sell it. I was unsure at first, but the price point was too good to pass up and there is just something about that orange. Yay!

    It's nice, and if it was weathered it would have been great.

    You and I think a lot alike. That’s scary. LOFL!! JK Nicoro. Yea, I was thinking how cool it would look if it was weathered. Would not doubt if they do that as well next year. If they did and the colors looked good I might just have to cave in and get that as well. Damn! Haha

    Even a cell shaded orange would look pretty freaking awesome. For now, I’ll enjoy it when it arrives. Should have it in the next few days depending on how fast TFS processes the order.

    the individual bots/alt modes look good in the orange, but orange Constructor just doesn't do "it" for me. I do wonder if the weathered orange would look better as well.

    I recently custom painted the thighs and waist on my constructor. What do you guys think?

    Awesome! I have the perfect edition.
    Those are great pics and the orange really pops. Great looking variation that I didn't think I would care for, but it's quite amazing really.
    You almost got the color perfect from what I can tell. Nice work!

    Thanks it was hard to paint since I didn’t disassemble it for fear of breaking something.
