My local retro store got some G1 reissues in, and I got this for my birthday, 40 years to the day of when I got the figure originally.
I got him in Alt mode as a part of my birthday cake decorations. I don't remember getting any other TFs for my birthdays, but I remember this one.
I love it when things like this happen! Happy Birthday!
I admit I cheated because the areas around the eyes were already very dark, close to black. Which means I could go in and roughly select the area around the eyes and raise the saturation on them. The surrounding black wouldn't be affected, but the eyes would appear to "glow"What was your trick to pull that off?
I can very much do a glowing eyes on desktop via GIMP, but moving pictures from one device to the next for edits is...cumbersome.
New title!
I was going to wait until someone started posting Heatwave or Sky-Byte, but my Heatwave just came in yesterday. I don't have any pics yet, because my photo area is a mess due to work being done on our balcony, but I figured if I have mine, other people must be getting theirs by now!
So have at it! (And yes, I left it broad deliberately.)

Found the full line of World Invading Insects at an estate sale yesterday! Pics and write-up over in the appropriate forum, but I had to sneak in one with the Mantis:
Part of my brain still thinks that Swerve transforms into an ambulance, because that's what my young mind thought all those years ago when I first encountered the action figure during a post-school Friday afternoon shopping trip with my parents. (Given the choice of Swerve, Hubcap and Pipes on the shelf, I chose Pipes.)
