    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    For those who received it, what mode is Optimus packaged in? I need to walk somebody through crack examination. NVM, found an unboxing video. Truck mode. This is gonna suck.

    It was delivered. Now to wait for my next visit there or to figure out the shipping to here. Also, FedEx did just dump it on the porch.

    Finished the dark energon glowy effects today. Gonna do the gunmetal next, though I think I’ll stop with those two additional colors and maybe some yellow for the traffic signs on the floor areas. excuse the mess. Thing’s really too big to be sitting on my desk.

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    Snipping a bit off the springs should work. Given that these are much smaller baby springs, it should be a lot easier to cut them than the monstrosities on Titans Return Trypticon

    You should open it up because if there are problems, it’d be easier to get Hasbro on the line now instead of months or years later.

    Hopefully Godzilla is nice and chonky again for Supernova. New Empire pink goji looked so weird.

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    My package has been stuck in California for 4 days now but the ETA is still within the next 2 days. I suppose the tracking could just be needing an update but going from California to Illinois to the address in that time seems unlikely.

    Why do yanks even call it that? Aside from occasionally punting the ball, it’s just a bunch of discount Warhammer dudes tackling each other. It’d be like calling Football/Soccer Handball because the goalie throws the ball sometimes. I even question if the ball even counts as a ball.

    If we don't count Unicron's planet mouth being miscolored as a QC issue, only him and Deathsaurus didn't have any widespread problems.

    Depending how they’re attached, if they’re not screwed in or ratcheted, a tiny bit of oil or grease worked into the joint can help loosen them.

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    Tracking has been delayed to Tuesday. I have no idea how reliable US FedEx is when it comes to delivery. Website says it requires a signature, so they shouldn't do the thing where they just dump the package on the porch or something, right?

    Depending on the depth of the lesion it is likely she has suffered some injury to one of her recurrent laryngeal nerves. It's unfortunately a common outcome of both thyroid masses and thyroid surgery. The hoarseness should subside over time and vocal therapy will help but there is often some...

    Man, when's the last time we had a sedan as an altmode? It's been nothing but sportscars and racecars for so long.

    From what I can tell the only pinned teal parts are Trypticon’s palms so it should be relatively simple to swap the ramp parts. That said, i don’t think the colors would mesh very well given how the clear plastic on TR Trypticon is a much deeper hue that’s almost green which was already a...

    I’m glad to see that there’s a significant amount of new paint detailing to partially replace the stickers. No QC issues as far as I can tell. The dark charcoal gray is beautiful, the purple has been replaced by plum/mauve that’s thankfully not nearly as pink as prerelease photos suggested. The...

    The 3rd Party Toy Picture thread

    I’m addicted to transforming Mixmaster’s legs. They’re everything I want from transforming robot toys. Split cab, Flip the foot out, fold the hood into the space the feet occupied. Simple, easy, little kibble and reshapes the cab/shin drastically.
