    I'll be posting some pics of the install tomorrow. It's super simple.

    No international shipping option through my shop. You can PM me and I can look into possibly sending you a set directly.

    Awesome, thanks. I saw the shop page said it was just a single screw, just curious about what all is actually involved.

    So I cant find the original Gravity Builder thread, but since im assuming its a knockoff it should be similar. Does anyone know a trick for the front cab section of mixer truck. Like that front section will not connect and i have no idea why

    Thanks to @blurr95 showing the difference in the purples on the 2 sets, I ordered the G2 set and it arrived yesterday. Went straight to work- the only sketchy part is swapping the purple parts from the bulldozer/Bonecrushers arms as the outer panels are riveted to the inner purple part of the arm and you have to find a way to hold them together again once you swap the parts. I tried plastic model cement and it came out quite sturdy so I'm happy with it.

    Anyway...

    This looks SO MUCH BETTER TO ME:

    Looks great, I’m glad you did it. The panels on my Bonecrusher had push pins in them. I was able to press them back together with pliers. Other than that, it was real easy. To me it’s the perfect Devastator now. And the G2 looks good with the burgundy pieces also. Great pic to.

    God help me, y'all keep tempting me with posts like this... It's making me want to buy the G2 set and do this swap myself :D 

    The swapped purples do look so nice, and I''m glad to hear that it's not too hard to do aside from Bonecrusher's arms!

    It's just screws and making sure you pay attention to how they come apart so you can get them back together, lol. And the Bonecrusher arm thing sounds like it may vary- maybe you don't have to do it the way I did every time. That said, the plastic model cement seems to have worked great since I couldn't use the original metal rivet type parts.

    Aliexpress is having a anniversary sale. Just picked him up for $104. Cheapest price I've seen so far for him.
