    So tomorrow BadCube's Sideswipe and Red Alert come but of course it's a day where I'm not going to be around until a bit later. Gotta' love it.

    Definitely not new and in fact I've had it for some time but put it on a shelf and pretty much forgot about it until I finally caught up on some other photo/review work and can fit it in. Sentinel's Re: Edit House of M Howard Stark.

    Thank you, friend.

    Got the full review up for Iron Factory's IF EX-28 Burning Slug. http://kumastyledesigns.com/iron-factory-burning-slug-review/ Burning Slug is a very straightforward piece in that it's well-done per Iron Factory's high standards but unlike the recently released Cygnus doesn't do anything that really changes the game. The review on site gives it a full break down and here are a few pics from the gallery:

    Well, it's accurate the the character design alt mode so It's decent FWIW. There was some hemming and hawwing over at TFW about the use of his weapons as filler parts for tank mode but honestly I love it. To me it's genius engineering and looks as clean as a whistle. overall it's a really well-done piece and the only thing it's missing articulation-wise is wrist swivel. ------------------------------ Full review up in a bit. ------------------------------- The MoDEL002 Soundwave (MP) upgrades look really good. The cassette with the sound effects is an awesome piece.

    Have Takara MP Soundwave coming to fill out my Cons a bit along with a bunch of the tapes. Also ordered that Ocular Max Jaguar (Ravage.) I have this sinking feeling that the second it gets here a 2.0 or 3P upgrade will be anounced; ha.

    No problem, friend. I definitely put some thought into it and really can't even give myself an excuse to have two of them atm.

    I think I answered this on the last page but no; I see absolutely no incentive to buying the other one as I absolutely love my version 1 and the completely minor changes don't warrant $240.

    BigbadToyStore for starters. ----------------------------------------------------------------- I'm going to get back to focusing on the product because there's something I want to share: **BEWARE** the rails on the repair bay piece (Where the kneeling man goes.) Mine came stressed on both sides where the rails meet the bay floor and one side just plain fell off. Put in a replacement form with BlueFin which was accepted but they noted it can take up to 8 weeks for the part to cme. Yikes. Got the full review and gallery up for Metal Build ARX-7 Arbalest Ver. IV. http://kumastyledesigns.com/metal-build-arbalest-review/ The full review goes in depth but overall I gave it a 9.5/10. The fit, finish, and playability just nail it on all parts. Feel free to check it out and here are a few pics from the gallery portion:

    ... alright? I'm not starting an argument here but that doesn't negate that it's still available at retail.

    Saw an in-hand picture of the Black MMC CJ and the paint literally looked like someone did a shoddy custom job themselves. Extremely disappointed and if the red turns out as bad I'm just out on that one. On the Flip side, MakeToys SkyCrow and Lightning look phenomenal. Can't wait for those to hit stateside.

    Looking forward to your thoughts on crackup. A friend sent me some pics and the off white doesn't look nearly as bad as in 99.9% of them so hoping in-hand it's much better.

    Got the full review of MakeToys MTRM-09ST Bounceback up. http://kumastyledesigns.com/maketoys-bounceback-review/ Overall it's a sick repaint and I love the included Target Master but just wish that damned shoulder adapter pegged on better. The full review goes a bit more in depth but here are some pics from the gallery section. Full thing is about 30 pics:

    With Downbeat being knocked out figured I may as well review Bounceback too. Review for this piece will be up tomorrow.

    Honestly, the release has been another let down with every new piece of information... I thought it was a Classics-Scaled, G1 StarScream on seeing it... First reveal: NOPE... it's a Cybertronian alt. mode... ok, cool; well I display my bots in bot modes so it'll be an easy filler... Next Reveal: NOPE... it's actually Masterpiece scale. Well, frakk me. Good call on it going next to the War within bots; unfortunately my Optimus (whatever his name is) is on the Optimus shelf so I'm kind of out on that unless I buy a second. -------------------------------------------- Got the full review of MakeToys MTRM-09 Downbeat up. http://kumastyledesigns.com/maketoys-downbeat-review/ The robot mode is just something else and honestly I don't really see myself even thinking about another Masterpiece-scaled Jazz until Takara announces one. I do wish that the alt. mode was more kibble-free for sure but it gets the job done. Review goes into much more depth but here are some pics from the gallery:

    I wish I could check out Coolsville in-hand just to see if it has some redeeming qualities as a toy because I just really can't with the robot mode look. I was all in on this while I thought it was Classics scale and now it's kind of like... eh? Especially after having just gotten Meteor. On the flip side I really like Cybertronian designs so I may get the Thundercracker and Skywarp to flank Meteor and have some mold difference.
