    except for the last 3 minutes, it was another lack-luster episode. Even still, a bit controversial.

    I was just the opposite; the original Ultra Magnus did little for me; I like the white Prime fig, but the armor was so limited in bot mode that it never really appealed to me. Honestly, the character never really appealed that much to me. I like the all-in-one engineering of the SS86 and MP figs (I bought MP Delta Magnus instead of Ultra Magnus b/c I dig his color scheme more, too), although I'm not opposed if they make an Ultra Magnus fig in the future who splits into a white Optimus and his trailer forms armor. As to my aforementioned concessions, I don't think the cab part would need any additional engineering beyond that of Missing Link Convoy. The trailer, OTOH, simply can't transform the way the G1 toy did; it was essentially a big red slab that the white Optimus stood behind. To realize the character better and afford him the articulation that is the hallmark of Missing Link, concessions will have to be made to make the trailer become functional, wearable armor which means it will be difficult to make it look just like the unaltered G1 toy, also a hallmark of Missing Link. That's what I meant by concessions. I simply don't see how they can maintain the look of the G1 toy and impart leg articulation while making it wearable by white Prime. I'm curious to see how they approach this fig, as it poses challenges that previous figs didn't, and it'll give some indication as to how they'll approach other challenging figs in the future. I think the Zs are a no brainer, as they can squeeze four or five repaints/slight retools out of that mold and they essentially need only to articulate the legs and head. The Seekers will pose more of a challenge since the arms relied on partsforming hands and were fairly short, and the legs, as they are, are also a bit stubby proportionally, and didn't extend like many of the other G1 toys. Moreover, the wing rotation joint sits at hip level which will prove a challenge for Takara if and when they decide to tackle the design as a Missing Link entry. I'd be interested to see how they solve the various challenges.

    Recognized the intro to Ocean Size and was stoked. I enjoyed this episode more so. Or maybe it was the Janes Addiction..

    That looks cool.

    different head, twin beam rifle barrels, the hyper beam sabers on the backpack, and the colors. I think that's about all.

    I would suspect they would do Michael's Tornado, Alto's Armored version and nothing else. I'd love a Prophecy and CF in revival matte but I doubt that will happen.

    Thanks; all they gave me was Tylenol. Whiskey would have been better... I managed to build this kit without too many issues; I just used permatex plastic welder to fill in where the gaps were. will do

    Yeah, I noticed the issues with the decals. Part of the process I'm using involves exporting the models to fbx format and that seems to bork the materials. It's easy to fix, but I posted before I saw it in this case. I don't disagree with you on the color saturation, I think it's partly due to taking screenshots from the model space of Blender, because when making the textures, I actually sampled directly from images of the models. I should probably break down and learn how to do proper renders one of these days instead of taking the lazy route. đŸ˜‰ Appreciate the feedback!

    Looks amazing! You have me a little scared for this, its in my stash (although its even older and its the first release without Khan's ship - I wished I got that version) and nothing I hate more than sanding. I think it will continue to be relegated to the back of the stash. But yours looks so good - congrats! So sorry to hear about your burns @pengbuzz - take good care of it.

    Fedex just dropped this off so +1 more to the VF-27 Revival crowd.

    Ouch, sounds horrible. Hopefully you can recover soon and I hope they gave you some good stuff for the pain

    I agree regarding the Toxic Rat. Especially the vandalism it did to SW and IJ. But, the Alita film wasn't a sounding success. And If One Piece was called something else and didn't bring it's goliath fanbase, it wouldn't have made it past the pilot episode.
