    The four plates from Throne of the Primes will be going out in the mail today or tomorrow.

    Now, who's going to buy Predaking so asphalt can complete the project?

    Question. What do the plates look like on the back. Like are the screw hole and slot still there?

    I remember it being mentioned that you'd have to drill out a hole or something and wanted to know what the actual case was as I wanna pick up some of these plates.

    image.jpg image.jpg The hole will vary from print to print as that tiny part of the mold will be the first part to tear. I would suggest to expect to need to drill it out slightly to attach it.

    What would be the safest way to drill it out?

    How many different colors will you be able to offer? It would be pretty awesome to get each one in a different color, though I understand that could be unfeasible.

    These look awesome!

    Sorry if this was asked already, but what resin/silicon are you using for your molds? I'd like to get into casting myself but wasn't sure what works best for Transformers.

    Hit me up with a PM, that is a long and complicated discussion with a lot of variables.

    Wow! These look great. I was interested in the Prime Cores, but I think I could go for a Megatronus and Liege Maximo of the plates.

    Given the time and funds I can do cores of the new plates as well. If there is interest

    I’m mostly interested in the plates with the cores to fill in the spaces on the throne of the primes. Although I could make due with just the plates themselves.

    The resin I use paints well. I am still working on the 13. Onyx is a hard point.
