    ^If you look back one page in this thread, I took a shot of various kabaya gum figures alongside wst sideswipe...

    No worries, some of the kabaya gum figures scale quite nicely, galvatron for instance although I don't believe I have a shot featuring him...

    Does anyone have the upgrade kit for wst megatron from heerotoysmaker? And if you do, could you/would you be willing to post pictures and/or a video showing it off?

    Do you know if Kwonghingco sells his stuff? I've been searching for these for forever it seems like, and now, thanks to you, I know the name of the guy that makes em. That wst rodimus prime especially is one that I would kill to have in my collection

    See page 54 of this thread for pics of heerotoys wst megatron stock/silencer.

    Good luck finding any! Kwonghingco isn't around anymore to the best of my knowledge. His pieces are very rare. I believe Simond and WST junkie have some of his pieces, tracks, galvatron...

    I only have red tracks, black tracks and the chrome gold and red Bumblebee so there's a lot I'd love too...

    Reading that back I shouldn't really use the word only with that ;)

    Just received a nice haul of WSTS from Heero. Nice to see WST Tracks keeping this line alive. Also got one of those WST Kickback kits off Shapeways. Anyone build one yet? I'm planning to paint mine soon. Any advice when building/painting it?

    Anyone have a clue how long Eagle TF's takes to ship from his TaoBao page? I ordered like 2 weeks ago and there is no mention of shipping yet. :(

    Afraid it's so long ago since I ordered from him that I can't remember how long it took. I think there was a delay though as he included his Superion gun as an extra freebie.

    I'd guess 30 to 45 days. Past that it's most likely not coming

    I need to get my World's Smallest out of storage. In the meantime, I picked up Prowl and Hot Rod at TFNation and I also think Titans Return Apeface and the Power of the Primes Pretenders could be repurposed as their World's Smallest selves...

    Any new figures from 3rd parties? Last one I know of is Heero’s Tracks - for which someone on the board has made a sticker sheet btw.

    With how cheap these can ship, seem like a wasted opportunity for companies to not pick these up.
