    Got these on a whim. Wanted to change small details. Spinister has red eyes now. So does Krok. Krok also has a silver nose. I dyed his pelvis black but just noticed it could sit in the dye bath a little longer. His claws on his hands needed a boil to tighten up-- they're like brass knuckles. I put them on his feet in robot mode for a better comic representation

    Very nice. I like the silver on the nose. It makes his face seem less squashed.

    The small details really add up! I like the clean look of the arms with the claws taken off. Think I'll paint the nose on mine now too.

    the claws fit perfectly on the back calves in bot mode. they'll click into place if you want to try it out. No stretching involved.

    When I first got him the left claw would pop off his arm really easily. I dunked the piece into boiling water for a few seconds and pinched it together slightly. It stays on solid now unless I pull them off for robot mode.
