    Great pics metaphorge. This thing is nice but I think Maketoys went way overboard. All I wanted was a nice simple chrome version of the original Battle Tanker for my TFCC Scourge. Heck I would have been fine with add-on pieces from either the blue of the purple version too. Oh well, I guess maybe sometime in the future perhaps?

    Sweet pics Meraphorge. When you have time can we see TFCC all armored up? At least as much that'll fit? Thanks in advance. Wish I was having your Saturday

    (I swapped Scourge's crotch plate for the replacement from one of the other Battle Tanker sets; Nemesis does NOT include the replacement crotch for the laser Prime mold.)

    I would suggest not pushing the skull rivets all the way in if you ever want to get them back out again.

    Fantastic pics. Guess I should push a little harder to get those shoulder back parts to come down properly ;-)

    Also - it looks like the distributors did get the mailout about right - I was only really about a day before everyone else.

    How hard is it to replace the cape? I want something with super high thread count that looks less like construction paper

    Should be straightforward. It's just a bit of material cut into a particular shape. You connect the chain to it using separate pegs. So you could get your high quality material, cut it into the same shape, and you're sweet.

    I just wish my tracking would update in usps.. Hopefully Monday. Still says left hongkong on the 17th, but usps still shows preshipment. I'm getting antsy. This is one of my most looked forward to releases of the year!
