    Ahhhh, okay. I'm now feeling like I knew that but forgot about it because it was so long ago. Was it a while ago? If not, and it's recent, I'm just remembering what I always wished would've happened from the get go. It looks sooooo much better.

    I remember at one point when the yellow set came out with that better purple considering ordering it and going through the effort of swapping out ALL of the purple bits between my green set and the yellow.

    So much better! Is the green lighter as well?

    I can't even recall which heads I utilized. It's been in combined mode for so long.

    I missed out on the cool toon head because I didn't want any of the other stuff in the upgrade kit.

    I got the upgrade just for the knees. They really do help. Had the rest up for sale ever since.

    The official upgrade kit? Would you be interested in parting with the head?

    Official/ actual GT set, yes. Parting out? Probably... I gotta dig the set out to double check it, but DM me and we will see what we can work out.

    My set didn't come with replacement parts, just got an extra head. (bought used but well maintained) Are replacement parts really necessary? Thank you

    They're not really replacement, but optional parts. Different head with LED, motorized drills to go over his fists, knees are extensions to make the combined mode slightly taller, and an LED chest plate.

    If you got the full set, none of these are truly necessary for completion, just preferences.

    Pic I took for @G.I.EDDIE, everything but the knee extensions...

    FYI the upgrade kit head doesn't transform to fold and hide away in Hooks alt or bot modes and is more obviously a head hanging out on the back... might not matter to you but it is definitely worth noting as a difference to the stock head.

    Do the knees in the upgrade kit add any more articulation, or is it primarily for more height?

    Just height. They're quite literally solid chunks of plastic.

    I'm having bad luck recently with everything coming out of ShowZ lately. Has anyone's shown up missing the chest piece? When I opened the figure's box everything just seemed thrown into the box and parts where everywhere with no chest piece in sight.

    Does anyone know if you can you swap out the faceplates on the upgrade kit's replacement head?

    Since Rebuilder doesn't come with the standard non-shouting faceplate, I'm guessing the upgrade kit is the only way to get that particular faceplate for the normal combiner head (unless anyone has a spare faceplate they'd be willing to part with, if so please let me know).
