I gave trying to get this set but so glad they did another run, they make old Gnaw look so bland with there shiny metallic paint job. Added bonus didn't realise they had wrist rotation!
I see why you get spare antennas, dropped one on the floor first attempt, found it then was petrified of snapping it while putting them in the head.
I may carefully drill some holes in Gnaws head to add the spare pair then give him some paint too. Anyone else having a really tough time uploading pictures recently?

 

I have coined the term "Legoforming" to describe MST Magnus v2's transformation. Beyond partsforming, you completely disassemble the trailer/armor and reassemble it onto the white Prime figure, leaving several leftover bits like disassembling a Lego set to build a different vehicle.

 

Yup. Small cab or not, I'm happy with the original.

 

"Cursed Autobots!" *Bang!*

God I love this figure. I'm definitely going to track down Soundwave and the Seekers even if I can't get Magic Square versions.

 

If it makes you feel any better, it's just armor anyway. Ala Centurions power-x-treme

 

So you don’t remember city commander and protector from Fansproject?

this is nothing new

 

Sharkticons on the Town

​

 

Fight!

 

Hmm, Iron Factory did a blue one, probably be too obscure though to get one in BWII Galvatron colors

 

​

 

War Giant : HAHAHAAAA ! I'm more powerful than you now, bro!

Catastrophe : Holy s...!!

Catastrophe   : Don't leave me like this, Hal! Do something! And shinny like me!

Hal (frightened  ) : Ok, ok... Let's see it...

Then there was lightning and a lot of noise...


And finally... Cata rose again from the ashes of sadness, with 13 blades!




(Not final sword)













So the 2 brothers were reconciled  



I hope these aesthetic upgrades will be to your liking!  

 

Got my seeeps!! Can’t wait for the iron factory cyclonus and galvatron to complete

 

Newage Soundwave and Seekers are superior to MS versions in almost every aspect.

 

Is that MST Seaspray photoshopped? I'm looking at mine right now, and the feet look definitely bigger than that over there.

 

I need to do the research. I haven't watched any reviews or anything. Newage Megs sculpt looked too iffy for me.

 

Seekers yes. Soundwave not so much. And then there’s the much better MS tapes.

 

I didn't do anything except adjust the brightness. I'm no pro photographer so I can't explain the conditions that led to the illusion of his small feet. Prolly has something to do with the angling of the feet and the low elevation of the shot... or maybe Seaspray's feet're smaller than you remember  

 

Retreat or not?

 

Kudos, mate. You made him look so much better!  

And since we're here, a few random pics, old and new, in no particular order...
