  1. Colors aside, it's still a very nice figure.

    He looks it...y'know, aside from the obvious & previously stated...

    Have you had the same problems I've been reading about? How after the first transformation, stress marks appear somewhere on the wings? With him & Megs, I'm really nervous to spend so much money on something that could potentially break... :unsure:

  2. I had an awesome story idea for a secret agent who drives around in a Transformer (yes, I am almost 25 years old...I'm allowed to act like an 8 year old when I want to). I was gonna use one of the Alternators, since they're the perfect scale for the 'Mates. I had a hero, femme fatale, bad guy, hitmen...didn't write it down, and forgot it all. So, I took them apart.

    :wallbash:

  3. I have never tried it on translucent plastic, but for removing logos on opaque plastic it has always worked well for me. I just put a little bit on the tip of a cotton swab and use that. Occasionally a sticky substance will form on the plastic, and the only thing that will remove it is more goof off.

    It's true! :biggrin:

    This is the guy who introduced me to the stuff by sending me a can with some commissions!

    It will work on trans. plastic, but, as with any 'Mate piece, you need to work fast, and not use too much. Like Luke said, cotton swab. The faster you work, the less likely you'll get that film on there, I've found. Keep a paper towel handy, and wipe off the GO after you've rubbed, this also lessens the residue. And, make sure you wash the piece off with soap and warm water the second you've removed the details. Sometimes, though, it'll leave a barely visible indentation of the details you've removed from a chest. It's kinda funny, but I don't know how to remedy that...

  4. There's Stuckakid. (Link at the top of the page) they're very good. Great service and they don't sting you on shipping.

    I'm going to have to disagree with you, there.

    Stuckakid has amazing service!! :biggrin: I ordered some blank minimates some time back, then, two days later, I ordered some World's Smallest Transformers. I got a phone call on Tuesday from a really nice guy from SK (just wish I was nice enough to remember his name :unsure:), saying one of the WSTs I had ordered was broken, and they wanted to know if they could replace it with a box set that included it (and another WST) - which cost more money - at no extra charge to me. Then, I get an e-mail saying they've shipped both orders together, and they've refunded me one of the shipping costs. I just got them today. Three days to ship, amazing customer service.

    I'm shopping Stuckakid again. :thumbsup:

  5. Guess what came UPS today?

    After almost 13, long years, and two versions to lust after (the original & the 20th Anniv. Masterpiece), I finally have it:

    One down, and with the new release of the Masterpiece Megatron, one to go...

  6. Thanks, Ant! Your compliments are some of the most appreciated!

    I had planned on doing that ever since we found out we were getting a Joker from DCD.

    I just love the "Timm" face too much!!

    Teaser pic of my next project: (note: this is a Photoshopped pic - I haven't done the custom yet!)

  7. Wow, I wouldn't have thought that Sonic would make a good minimate, but he looks fantastic!

    I always work under the idea anything will work as a minimate, not a good idea but it's done fine by me so far. And thanks everyone.

    Everything seems to work in the Minimate Multiverse... (I just couldn't resist the play on words)
