    So I had some time after work to mess around with the transformation today! Man! I'm impressed! Glad that nothing was broken, no little nubs busted! Just an amazing piece to own!! Even visible from the road in our bay window. Haha!!

    Honestly, I wish I could set up a piece of cardboard or like a black board across the back and use this as a set up and have him look like he's in space with stars and small planets in the background, maybe some light lighting, but I know my partner wouldn't be ok with that. Haha! Soon as he went in the window for a picture, I was already told he wasn't staying there. LOL! I've already moved him back on the stand where I had him in planet mode. Still in a window but not as cool as the bay window. Haha!

    here are some more pics but I'll keep these in thumbnails . The faceplates eyes are painted green from the back... not the front .. and the teeth are painted silver. painting the little transformer figures are a pain lol and the last several pictures are how to take the figure apart and how its supposed to be oriented to put back together.

    putting it back together, the teeth you'll want the part that rotates in first, then the teeth and one tooth at a time push it to the closed / in position and then put the blue molded grooved piece into position, the peg will go into a slot on the inside of the yellow rotating mechanism part and to get them all back into postion, you'll have to have your hand underneath trying to just put enough pressure to keep closed / in position but not too much or you push the teeth up and out and having to redo the whole thing. its not hard but if you try to go too fast it can get annoying.

    if you want to do this yourself , just take pictures of each step too so you can just keep looking at it if you get confused on how things go...

    My take on the eyes for now. I colored Plastic wrap with the brightest marker my kid had and folded it up so the ink is on the inside. cut to "fit" and pressed in the eye socket.

    I could totally see Hasbro doing a major remold of this into Cybertron/Primus as Generations Selects release for the 40th anniversary. He’d be cheaper as it’s less plastic and most of the major work was already done during development. Makes me wonder if Black Zarak is them testing the waters to see how well a large selects release does.
