Seriously, I need Megatron, but I know I'm gonna have to start saving if I want that delicious Purple T-Rex.

    Part One of fixing Inferno was successful. The broken peg has been removed from the nozzle without damaging the chrome.

    It's legit. It's the same on mine, those squares. I only have the 2017 reissue, so I can't comment on the first release version. Comparing it to my Laserbeak, which came with my first release Soundwave, it has small circles there.

    LOL no.

    Edit: How did your Megatron do? Were you able to get all the wax off?

    I was able to get the majority of wax off after tossing him in the freezer for a few day. His head, faceplate and chest piece are clear of wax. I bought a hair dryer and will experiment by taking apart whatever I can and blasting it with heat. The great thing so far, transforming him ruins the paint more than anything I've done. I'll photograph the progress but just been super busy as of late.

    Thanks mate. I’m glad I don’t own a ko. It’s odd that these extra details have been added though.
