    That's a really nice design. Well done.
    Is that 3mm or 5mm acrylic?

    3mm. I hardly use any 5mm acrylic for designs I sell because that gets expensive fast (material + time) and it's hardly ever necessary for construction in this scale.

    I wish they would have made the gun grips on his legs and skirts smooth like the animation model.

    Stick it in hot water.. i have a coffee machine that has a just hot water in option.. make a cup of that and let it sit in there for a few min and slide it out.. if its to tight file the large flat base a hair to slide it in and out...hot water from tap could work..should expand the figure plastic to let the print loose

    This is a long shot, but is there anywhere still selling this big boy, or is eBay my best/only option? I just got back into collecting MP's, and was able to get Starscream and Prime at retail, but haven't seen Megs around lately

    at this point it's used via ebay or a knockoff like the Infinite Transformation IT-01 or straight KO. Watch out for the plain KO versions on ebay being sold as legit, I'm sure there will be sketchy sellers trying it still.

    That's what I figured. I'm mostly just trying to avoid KO's. I was late to the BW MP's too, and avoiding the KO's got pretty tricky

    Last I checked AgesThreeAndUp had MP-36 and Robot Kingdom still had MP-36+. I'd only buy from a legitimate retailer at this point though. There are way too many very good KOs of MP-36 now.

    Alright so, re-bought this guy after a couple years without him and I'd like to hear from any long term megs owners...

    What is the definitive silencer barrel fix or method of attachment?
    Any clarification would be appreciated. Sorry for reviving a dead thread.

    Hi. The whole barrel assembly on my MP-36 broke off. I am planning to buy a cheap KO to replace it. Could someone walk me through how to replace the barrel?

    send pictures of the break. Removing the pins for replacing parts on my MP-36 was extremely difficult.

    I used the jobby fix (he sanded down the internals of the silencer to rub the barrel less) but ngl I just don't use the silencer part ever. Turned that into an accessory display stand.
