    I modded and customized my Buzzworthy Studio Series 44 Optimus Prime and turned him into Evasion Mode Optimus Prime from TF4 Age Of Extinction!I swapped the original 44's legs with Dotm Ultimate Optimus Primes legs. So now Primes got CGI accurate legs from Bayverse TF4 through the original trilogy! His Gun was from a previous custom ion cannon for my Optimus Prime I cut and trimmed his gas tank panels to make them more cgi accurate so all I have left is paint this guy the reason I made evasion mode optimus is because I loved that design the mix of G1 and Bayverse oh and also because I loved TF4 and Bayverse!!!

    Did you use a giant screw to attach the abdomen?

    SS44 has blue plastic chest with the windows painted in silver, and the forearms have yellow paint besides the flames, SS32 has a clear plastic chest and the forearms only have the flames with no yellow paint, so yeah, that was SS 44

    SS44… I get that it’s your figures, and this custom is pretty fire, but part of my soul just died a little. Great work though!

    This is pretty rough I gotta say. That prime is a crazy expensive figure these days and to see it beat up and with a rusty screw in it kinda ruins it. I feel you could have just done a custom from the original evasion mode prime since he isn't too far off scale wise with studio series. I'd love to see you actually finish a custom though instead of mashing really expensive toys together and not finishing them. I know my words seem harsh and we all start somewhere but you should definitely focus on one project at a time and actually finish a custom before moving to the next one.

    Do I tell you what to do with your figures no I don't so don't put words in my mouth if they're my figures and I should be able to do what I want with them even if it ruins the value of them I have plenty of good condition figures mainly from Rise Of The Beasts so I don't want to hear it period!! go look at my recent collection post there's alot of rotb figures there so whatever!

    From an outsider prospective, I believe that both points have flaws. On one hand, I think that Que can do what he wants with his figures. On the other hand however, These are quite expensive figures being used for kitbashes that are normally left unfinished. I recommend finishing these customs and painting them before you move on to another unfinished custom. You don't exactly have to use our advice, but it is good to acknowledge the support and criticism. I think that both parties should chill out a bit. Side note, that "period!!" part made me fall on the floor laughing. Jokes aside, just know that we are trying to help you and your wallet out.
