Well, I finished lettering Brave the Fortress, so I got to open my reward.
Aaaand...

Boo.
For all the complaints I read about Universe Galvatron, at least he has the excuse of being a Voyager stuck in a deluxe's body. Hot Shot is very much not.
He has some impressive things about him, but none of them make me appreciate the toy. For one, it feels cheap, like the plastic quality took a serious nosedive. The transformation is neat, but the limbs fight each other so much as you're pulling him out of car mode they pop off. Overall I'm disappointed, mostly because I thought he may have made a really good base for a custom Runamuck and Runabout. As things look now, Classics Bumblebee is still the prime mold for those two.

Anyway, here's a Revoltech Leader-1 I made some time ago. The head from Cybertron Brushguard works nicely, but would work better if I could fix the way that neck joint juts from the body. I need to take the time to drill a deeper hole and hide the joint.
