    Can anyone tell me best way to fix Silver Arrow right shoulder? The lect side goes down flush bit the right keeps popping up a sliver. Seems like the shoulder tab may be too big? Just want to know what to shave off.

    I’m looking forward to Fanstoys bot modes. I feel like the Last two limbs are not as well thought out as the first two. I have yet to combine him but I’m not a big fan of their bar modes even though they look better than the Bruticus individual not modes.

    That looks way better than turning him into a cheetoh-headed clown. Nice job.

    I've got some Tamiya gold paint on its way to me, looking forward to spraying Superion's eyes to see how that looks.

    Ok. Well I caved in and purchased all 5 Zeta bots just a few minutes ago from Showz for $371 after a few bucks off with his points system and no shipping fees. I really like shopping from Showz! Now to wait, but it's ok because my other unfinished TF projects and my work schedule occupy my spare time. Can't wait!

    The clear plastic, even to this day, is baffling to me why it continues to get used. IMO, it took away from a few of the Constructicons bot modes and the lack of consistency where it was located, even wants me to ask the designer or decision maker as to why they still did it. In the end, what you said about combined mode and FT's is exactly what I'm doing. In fact, so much so, I don't want to pay much for the Zeta ones, especially when Constructor was also cheaper as a set vs individually sold.


    Was this the set or you buying each robot? At $371 shipped, I would buy in but you got points used that I'm sure I don't have :(

    Total price for the five bots is $375 so don't worry about not having points.

    When you buy 4 of the 5 you will automatically get some points that you can use towards the other one. Points hit the account once a purchase is made. And I goofed because I should have bought silverbolt first with three others since his value is higher, but in all honesty not by much. Like a few cents. Pull the trigger and get from Showz because his service is rock solid. My only concern at this time is he may not win his battle in getting a part from TW but we all know they are f’n morons for any seller to deal with. Other than that, Showz is the king or service!

    IMG_20190307_183739.jpg Just finished to combine the team.
    The result is awesome, I have just to decide if remove the wings from the arms.
    My final decision is to display him combined, side to side with my Zeta Bruticus.

    I got the rest of mine in a couple days ago and I was really surprised to find that I kind of like them best as a team. I fully planned on combining them and being done but now I may break them down for a while. Individually they are fine but when I see the entire group it just really works for me.

    The OS KOs messed with my head a little in this pic.

    Now my living room is so sweet. ..
    Please Zeta...
    Can you see that space between Superion and Omega Supreme? It's time to close it wit lh a cool Defensor (There is another place Close to Terminus Giganticus, but it's reserved for Predaking) IMG_20190307_214012.jpg

    It's a fairly common thing. Have seen it on son of the empire's shots, some other posters' pics also. I asked this ages ago in this thread and got no feedback. i think people just tolerate it. @Tarzan456 's pic has that issue also ZetaToys Kronos (Masterpiece Superion/Aerialbots)

    Despite all the praise Kronos got for getting the G1 look right, I believe he can be easily bettered.

    Kronos looks spot-on from the front. But his side and back profiles are very 'lazy'. The wings are not hidden away at all.

    Man, I need to start saving up for Onslaught and Silverbolt ASAP because I'm starting to run out of space, so having them all combined would help with that...
    Cheers for the info. I know Generation Toy includes their little aftercare card and such so I think it might be worth the risk. I just can't get over how good Blades looks, to be honest.
    For the decals, this is probably one of my better posts covering them (figured I may as well look up an old one than repeating myself again):
    X-Transbots MX Series Berserkars / Monolith (Stunticons/Menasor)
    The wings are meant to be there for more of a Studio Ox look. They're intentional. I think that, for the most part, Zeta really nailed the toy/Ox look, with a few exceptions.
