    i love your sculpt but it does not fit the classics in my opinion, though its spot on for a transformers prime figure. since they have magnus and kup now

    That's a great paint job on your headsculpt! It matches the plastic perfectly!

    How does that sculpt even pass for the Prime aesthetic? It definitely fits in with the Classics look, especially since it's an homage to the IDW design.

    Info happily sent! I'm amazed at how well you were able to match the paint scheme for the Hasbro one. Takara looks like it will be a bit tough to match.

    Thanks you all for the comments! glad you guys are liking this so far :) 
    still working to match takara red, this gonna be a bit harder than hasbro...
    many members are asking about pricing, im gonna be fair with everybody and myself as well...
    i cant post pricing here, also im not quite sure what I'll be charging. It would be similar to what my fellow 3rd party upgrade kit makers like RENDERFORM, MAIDEN JAPAN, DR WU, etc charge...im also a buyer so I wanna keep it around the same price range.
    here's a couple of pics of some painting in progress, just so everyone understands the amount of work that goes into making each one of this...prepping(sanding and cleaning), primer(airbrushed), then first main color(airbrushed), then masked for second main color(also airbrushed)...then final detail (eyes and silver on his crest) then sealing (flat clear coat, airbrushed as well)

    please make sure to pm me all yor info(NAME , ADDRESS AND COLOR SCHEME) if you wanna make it on the list, THIS IS JUST TO HOLD YOUR SPOT,... like i said before you wont be forced to buy this upgrade kit....once this is ready i will send you guys price/payment info and if you decided to change your mind, thats completly fine with me....but then i will give that spot to the next customer.
    cheers!

    Wow... looks soooo much better than the Classics mold now... then again, head aside, TFA Rodimus could've easily fit into a CHUG collection. Now with the new head... it's PERFECT.

    Really, were it not for the Protector Armor sets... I'm sure most folks would can that craptastic Classics/RTS figure of Rodimus.

    Now... if only we could get this face sculpt for a Protector Faceplate... or even better... integrate this now-improved Rodimus figure into said armor... *drool*
