    It looks really good so don't get me wrong but there has already been a stock one in those colors. So why go the extra mile to repaint a black version of this mold?

    Probably budget constraints, because that version is worth a lot more than the other two

    I didn't ask why, but he specifically commissioned me to repaint it to more G1 toon colors except with the yellow arm details. Despite the pipes on the chest sides and other little details that clearly make this figure Powermaster Prime's core body, he wanted it to be season 1-3 G1 toon colored.
    I don't think it was a budget thing because buying the black version then having me repaint it is probably not less (or significantly less) expensive than just buying the one that is already closer to these colors. I could be wrong though. Maybe the other color version costs a straight-up fortune now.

    How much would you ask for the same thing except with non metallic colors and
    The core body is already white because it’s just the magnus version

    I'd like to know the cost of such a custom in general, too.
