Restoration : KO Shadow Commander & KO Universe Nemesis Prime

Taking longer & longer time to do my restorations now... And finally restore my KO Shadow Commander... Surprisingly, KO Shadow Commander has the "inner clips" inside the lower arms armor, while the KO City Commander does not have... Still took a lot of trail & error when restoring... Read in 1 website that the loose arm armor parts can be tighten by adding a styrene piece(s) to make the space of fitting smaller... Must thank the person who suggested this, really useful...

Had to also touch up the joints of KO Nemesis Prime... and 1 of the transparent hinge at the leg break... KO Nemesis Prime's colour is all black, looking so much more "darkness" which suits more for a "Nemesis" character...




Debut of the trailer!!!!


Back of the trailer... notice I have a different "waist armor" piece... yeap, my KO Shadow Commander set comes without this piece... so have to make one... took a whole day to do... lots of frustration, but end of the day, it is worth it...


Shadow Commander, robot mode!!! Now the shoulder & arms armor pieces are reasonably tight, staying in place obediently...


Even the KO version's BFG is heavy, it is not possible to place inside KO Shadow Commander hand without damaging the arm joint... So reposition it and imagine it as a mini artillery gun (think Rodimus Prime)... looks small, but at least it can be useful while not forming as a BFG...


KO Shadow Commander in action!!!!



Next to restore - KO City Commander... next week probably, this weekend need to do work brought home from office... sigh...
