The problem with brick-build Star Trek sets is the design of the ships don't really lend themselves to sturdy model made out of interconnecting pieces WITHOUT needing specialty pieces for key structural points. Both Mega Blok Enterprises (2004 D and 2017 TOS) had single piece for their warp...
Between the Mega Blok 2004 Enterprise D, their 2017 TOS Enterprise and the Kre-O Kelvin Enterprise (big and small), and their promo tos Enterprise, I'm pretty Brick-built-Enterprised-out.
A few weeks before TFCON I finally got the inner robot for the Pretender Finback.
The robot itself, by itself wasn't hard to come by. Finding one with intact stickers was surprisingly difficult. Of course it wouldn't be an issue if the HACKS at that TOY sticker company didn't decide to make...

Shelling out the coin to clear any legal issues and debts defeats...
Earthspark 'Prowl' reminded me of two things:
1) the spoilers in robot mode broke off on the first transformation on my Cyberverse Hot Rod, so I was nervous about this.
2) How I SO much wanted the smokestacks on Earthrise Optimus to be Blast-Effect compatible so I could use the flame pieces...
