    Preordered Skywarp. I'll probably get this guy two months post release. Still aiming for that minus 20,000 yen price. Need to be a cheapskate these next few months if work continues to come in. Keyword: IF. But so far, I have hope.

    Ok, I don’t have the time to go through and look, did the seekers not have the nose logos in the ‘86 movie???

    Edit: found the shot I was looking for and apparently they didn’t, very interesting.

    I don't see a "Show Ignored Content" button so Starscream managed to stay clear of drama today. :D

    But that's UNFAIR! TC is just a recolor(anything else to retool?) of Star Cream! They should be criticizing the base mold of sweet poison! TC is just getting the unfair rep caused by Ulchtar!

    Btw, it's the evolution of the mold guys! As much as I miss the greebles, that's the direction TT made so no choice but to follow our ABS/PVC plastic crack dealer :ev: 

    All I'm praying for is that no catastrophic breakage like the original MP-03 and MP-47.

    Excellent work big buddy but my EYES! :p 

    Btw, if I got a dig at MP-11 and MP-03, why da EF did Takara not put metal pins on his poseable fingers?:mad:  Relying on just friction to keep it in place, for a very small part is just plain ESTooPiDS!

    There were like 2 incidents where I almost lost them (they just like pop off for no reason)! It's as if Star Cream enjoys me suffering!:lol

    given the plastic and paint quality on MP-50 is rock solid, I’m confident screamer here won’t suffer those issues.

    That being said, my only gripe with this figure is that I wish the smirking face was painted a little better, otherwise I’ll happily donate my fucking kidneys for both screamer and cracker. Weeeewwww

    Everything we've seen up to this point is of the hand-painted samples, so paint work isn't indicative of the final product. Faces can still be improved, especially as the factory paints go on a lot thinner, hiding the details and intricacies of the sculpt less.

    I lost MP10’s trigger finger for 2+ years and bought him two different 3P hand upgrade kits to replace before finally finding the original finger in a whole different room somehow :D
