    I bought this product late. It seems that there was a mistake in shooting and the light adjustment failed. Surely this stuff is awesome.

    I'm either going to suspend it from the ceiling with fishing line, or make a stand out of acrylic sheeting.

    I'm probably going to suspend him above/behind the Bot mode standing on my PC for now because I don't know how long it will be until I remodel my office. As you can see I'm running out of shelf space. I don't really want to put more shelves up temporarily even though there is wall space for some floating shelves.

    Am I crazy or is Omega Supreme bigger than your Unicron judging from that picture?

    He's not super tall.
    Tops of Unicron's horns just reach the top of my Seige Omega Supreme head or chest high to Generations Metroplex.

    You're not crazy. Studio Cell Unicron is shorter.

    His size shouldn't be a surprise to anyone right? It's been a subject of discussion on this thread off and on since this piece was announced.

    Loving that purple rhino co-pilot you've got there. What's their story?

    My boyfriend gave him to me. Not much of a story. Just a cuddle buddy.

    Haha just wait until you see how I remodel it. Whenever I can finally get around to it.

    I'm moving in April, and I'll have a ton more space for figures. We're still renting, so I'm not going to go all in on a nice wooden shelf set, but I'll be able to have more than 1 extremely crammed 4 tier shelf, and extremely crammed detolf

    Awesome! That's exciting!

    Our house is pretty small, but I'm the boss... So I get to claim 85% of this room :p

    Seriously??!?
    All I did was drill through that uber thin layer of plastic (with a jeweler's screwdriver) covering the tip of push pin, and pushed the pin out. Did not dissemble the figure at all. Took maybe 2 minutes to switch out the shoulders and can now do so as I please just by pushing the pins out (just how the forearms were). Maybe I should make a youtube tutorial....

    I had my Takara Unicron suspended from the ceiling by hanging the rings in planet mode on hooks, but I tried to see if it would work with zetacron and it was just way too much of a gamble given the weight, so I decided against it.
    That said, it is ominous af with a ceiling hang in planet mode. Would be cool to build in the versatility to hang in robot mode as well so he isn't locked in planet mode as the only mainstay display option.

    That's a much better and smarter method than mine. (in my defense, I worked with what I currently had access to.)

    Yeah it's going to take some planning to make sure it's done right so it's nice and secure but it would look super awesome.

    It will be a while before I get it from TFSafari but whatever solution I concoct, I'll share. If I have it hanging, I'd secure the lines to the main body of the robot inside the shell.

    Also considering mounting it to the wall so it looks like it's floating... We'll see.

    Anyone who ordered the upgrade wings from ShowZStore get a shipping notice yet? The listing no longer shows “in coming” so I’m hoping that means they will start shipping before too long.
