    Ah bummer. Not the biggest deal but would’ve been nice to have it all complete.

    Doesn’t do well with drop tests. Cats knocked it off the detolf a couple times, no smokestacks now. Glad I can switch them out…

    That sucks, I’ve seen people chuck this figure across the room and nothing breaks.

    Then again the smoke stacks were a very weak point on the MP edition.

    One of our cats came down to my collection room once and started pawing at one of my MP figures. It fell over on top of him. Neither cat gets within a couple feet of any my figures ever since.

    Mine did not and I don’t think I have seen a version of this Optimus that does. The MS Megatron usually comes with a small gun version other figures can hold.

    Hi, I'm new here and I am looking for some help, and I figured this post would be the best place to look.
    I have a MS-B46B nemesis prime, and I've recently found out that it's missing the pins for the parts that become headlights and front wheels of the truck mode. Does anyone know the size and type of pin needed to replace them and where to get them?

    lol...the MS pin bandit strikes again.

    i never picked up that prime because i decided to wait for the prime 2.5 with clear glass and metallic paint.

    but i could totally make you up a set of pins really quick. i just need to know how long you need them so i can get them right.

    That would be amazing thank you, I reached out to MS but they haven't gotten back to me.

    I took the best measurement I could, I find myself lacking a ruler it came out close to 1.20 Cm (.472441 Inches)
    I'm not sure if it needs to be exact or not or if excess material is bad, this is my first time having to do repairs like this.

    if you could lay the part on a penny or quarter i can basically see how wide it needs to be just off of the references on the coin.

    just something that is common should work the best.

    I'll see if I can pry some off if you need more clear ones.

    Grabbed another copy of Nemesis Prime to turn into Scourge and I’m pretty happy with the results! The decals are regular stickers so they aren’t the best quality but I really like the Scourge design so I don’t mind. There were not alt mode stickers so you can actually mimic the pink windows -> grey window transformation of the original RiD toy. Though I won't be transforming him for fear or damaging the stickers.

    If only someone would make shoulder attachments for MS like Super Make did for NA Nemesis Prime!

    This is my third version of MS Nemesis.:lol

    Where are you finding extra copies of MS nemesis? I wouldn't mind grabbing another.

    All the major retailers are sold out so I gambled and bought one from a random seller on Aliexpress back in the fall (now sold out) and this last one I was lucky enough to buy loose off eBay recently. If you find a reasonable price for one, I wouldn't hesitate to pick it up.
