    From the WIP thread, here comes the completed figure.

    Thanks for looking.

    Just some observation: the clear plastic at the forearms tend to crack due to its clear plastic nature, so I had to reinforce it with some crazy glue and putty.

    And why the Autobot symbol on the arm? So that the Cons will know who hammered him up close. :D

    A fitting repaint! Wouldn't be surprised if we get an official one like this down the line.

    Edit; D'oh! Turns out Takara already have one. Guess it's only a matter of time for Hasbro to follow...

    this really looks good... however it seems that there is something missing- but I dunno what.
    Also, due to the shape of the body I think an RID Optimus shaped head would fit better.

    Overall this is a really nice figure. Good job!

    I miss the red. He looks a little..incomplete? Without some more red. Nice work though.

    Looks awesome bro! I figured I would try this one, but I doubt I could get as clean as yours and I also figure I would try razorclaw and target exclusive Leo prime
