    have not planned to. I'd have to see the exact color of the striker prime to be able to match it, but for now all the casts are black.

    Any thoughts on sending these to Shapeways? I was talking to OMEGAPRIME1983 about it in one of my custom threads. Like I said there, it seems like it'd be a good way to outsource production, and since they've already been done in a CAD program the conversion should be simple. I'd be willing to bet Fakebusker83 would be willing to help.

    I am hoping someone can help me here but can someone tell me what is the best way to get the pins out as I am adding this to my Striker Optimus and do not want to damage him in the process. Thanks in advance.

    I believe those are Gundam manipulators and aren't really articulated. You can check fakebusker83's shapeways thread for the articulated hands.

    Anyone have a remedy for stressed plastic? As I was getting the pins out I stressed the plastic a bit so if anyone has any remedies that would be great. Thanks.

    Nevermind Savio I was able to drill a hole in the back just fine with one my small drill bits. Anyways Striker Optimus Prime thanks you for the hip mod. I am planning on trying to get the Jetwing Prime's jet pack to fit on to Striker and get the two battle blades so that he may be the most ultimate Prime ever. Here is a pic of the finished work below.

    I got an email from him as well and I didn't open it for fear of it being spam or a virus. I would bet that was exactly what it was.

    Sorry I didn't get any updates this thread has gotten new posts until today.

    Yes, last night I think my email was hacked. "It" sent an email entitled "hey" to a bunch of people with an attachment. So, I emailed everyone stored in my account to notify them of this occurence.
