    Those display cabinets are amazing. I'm looking for something similar for myself.

    Thanks, luckily (very luckily) they come from a local company that will even deliver them for me for free. I just pay cost and tax. I'm looking to add another one sometime in the fall.

    So I need to be more active in this thread and I've gotten a few things recently. Time to share.

    Unique Toys Terrocons - Troll, Alberich and Fenrir:

    Warbotron After Burner and ToyWorld Infinitor:

    FansProject Dinobots - Columpio and Cubrar. Volar has delivered today and is literally sitting on my porch right now to be opened as soon as I get home.

    [​IMG]


    TFC Protectobots - I just the other day finally completed them with Verti-Aid. They won't be displayed combined. I much prefer them individually.

    Warbotron Combaticons, minus a Fierce Attack:

    [​IMG]


    AOE Armored Knight Prime - I don't like the figure, but I love the paint job

    I mentioned Volar, but I also have Warbotron Fierce Attack, Generations Chromia and Arcee waiting for me. I also should get Apollyon tomorrow and I'm stupid excited for all of them. It especially Megs.

    I thought I had the entire set of ten, minus the duplicate SDCC Optimus. Turns out I overlooked Jazz. I've rectified that and I have both Jazz and SDCC Prime coming probably tomorrow. That necessitated putting four on the bottom and top shells none two each in the middle. I actually prefer this since they are turned and that looks much better in my opinion.

    This guy is absolutely amazing! I couldn't be more pleased with this figure. It has definitely held up and in many ways far surpasses earlier releases of this mold. Everything fits together very nicely and in fact probably has tighter tolerances than any other Optimus Prime in my collection.

    Hey Sentinel, I've been meaning to ask about your custom 2010 Primus. Is there any shots of Robot mode? I'm curious about all the parts you swapped out. Also, what are you using to display the planet mode? I tried looking through the thread here abut if you posted that info I can't find it, lol. Can you help a fellow collector out?

    The stand is easy, it's from this website FlightPose - Adjustable Display Stand for Model Aircraft and Collectibles.

    I haven't taken any shots of the custom Primus in bot mode, but I'll see what I can do this weekend. I'll also try to recall what pieces I swapped. Obviously it's a Takara Primus with the black Hasbro pieces substituted in for the tan bits. I'll look it over and see if I can put together a list that I'll post here.

    Oh cool! I just ordered one. Thanks!

    Yeah I figured as much but I was curious to know what you swapped out and what they looked like in bot mode. I just picked one of these up and I had the same idea but not too many people have done this custom swap, so I figured since you already did, I could get a look at yours to get a better idea of how it will look.

    Thanks!

    So glad to hear you say that! I've been debating whether to get this or not, after hearing some folks say there was mold degradation. Sounds like it's worth the price!

    Yeah, that helps a lot! Thanks! I was wondering if you changed the two city/leg guns and the shin gun clusters. The light blue parts from the Hasbro release seems to have worked well too. I'll have to pick up a junker Primus and attempt this modification on mine for sure.

    I've got the entire set on pre-order, although I may just stop with Prime and Megatron.

    Great collection, and plus points on the display!
    I feel ya on the Prime 1 stuff and was thinking of only getting the main 2 characters also. However, I'd hate myself if I canceled the others. I'm OCD like that. Hehe.
