    Are the only thing missing these side flares? If so, I can easily scratchbuild those from styrene strip.

    Heh yeah it might at that small size. I'm not interested unless they were built anyway.

    I'm okay I guess. Thanks for asking. I have complete nerve damage of my right hand and right wrist (just dead weight ATM) and the pinky finger of my left hand. I'm hoping to find someone to do the right surgery to get my hand back.

    Not just those. The forehead crest is inaccurate as well, and the ears aren't right either.

    Also even if you scratch-build those parts it wouldn't exactly look movie accurate. There's too much detail. It'd look like obvious scratch-built additions to an otherwise properly sculpted and painted head.

    Damn dude, Godspeed and I hope you find someone who can do it.

    You are making some unflattering assumptions of my scratch building skills. :D  Well, I could 3d model and print the head replacement. Or just live with it.

    The kits look really good. If they maintain the same quality as the Bee kit, they’re gonna be winners. I love Bee despite being a little oversized for legends stuff. It holds together superbly, no glue required at all

    Hope they don't take forever to get to the rise of the beasts characters. If anything we would have the most accurate size of arcee

    Looks like they're still having a hard time with the head designs. Starscream's face looks off.
