    Dang, you guys are lucky getting him so fast. I'm trying to be patient, but I was duped into thinking he'd be out in a month only to end up waiting a year ago already. Ah well. At least I didn't get screwed like everybody that orders from TF Direct nowadays.

    Mines coming via Lasership as well…fingers crossed…. I don’t know if I should expect it in 2 days or 2 weeks…haha…. I looked them up, and they kinda look like the shipping industry’s version of Uber. My area has Lasership at 1.4 stars…most of the low scoring reviews seem to be from people who never got their stuff, had their stuff delivered to the wrong address or were just unimpressed with the delivery drivers’ lack of professionalism. Of course, I’m guessing some of these complaints are from Karens who didn’t have their asses kissed properly…time will tell…

    That's a sticker from this very common sheet sold on ebay and Aliexpress. They are super thin almost like a water slide decal but shiny so its noticeable that it's a sticker in person. They do look great though and I've been real happy with them. I am running low on the common sizes and undecided if I simply get more or try water slides or even different stickers all together since there is quite a few that look great. I recommend figuring out what look you want him to have and that will get you closer. I like these but they are a darker shade and slightly narrower than toon symbols.

    That is @transformer_78's 3D printed extended neck with a side to side rocker. He makes those blast and thrust effects on Starscream too! Very nice parts and a great guy to deal with!

    Not at all on both. He made it longer utilizing the available space so it's now taking up all the room where the head tucks in, but no problems or interference. The fit he created with the rocker has plenty of resistance making it feel solid. It also fits perfect where it mounts feeling like the original.

    Thanks @MV Steve :) 

    *See my sale page regarding TE-01 3D printed extended neck.

    **All information and video demos showcasing the part can be found here:
    Transform Element TE-01 (Optimus Prime)

    ***The extended neck still allows transformation.

    Only time can tell.

    Even if they changed the formula of the plastic, and I have read nothing about it either way, that still doesn't exclude the possibility of future yellowing.

    It might be the picture quality, but are there speckles in the paint?

    To my eyes, my original IT had TINY metallic flakes in the paint.

    Yes there are. It seems they have used a matte clear coat on most of the panels so in some areas the flake isn't as noticeable but its definitely in the plastic.

    You're right, he doesn't come with one. That is the stand from Generation Toy GT-02 Tyrant with the extra claw
