Scourge's face is covered with a plate when in space craft mode, but somehow it is quite impossible to cover the face snugly so when all tabs are pegged in. I tried to trim off the blue plastic part (both sides) shown in the first picture below, and now the face cover can fit in better. Should have file down a little more, but think this will be suffice.
The transformation video...
Painted the weird yellow parts in car mode and the elbow joints to red... And weirdly, the ZIG Painty paint pen I used is a Burgundy colour... Nevertheless, it matches quite ok... I used a red marker to touch up the mushroom peg rim, as paint from the paint pen will get scratched off... Looks much better and more accurate to the show... Also painted the rear wheels rims silver to match the front wheels (the legs' exhaust pipes can be pried off gently and carefully)...
And the transformation video...
Touch up the white parts of Kingdom Warpath, which looks really weird... the paint I used is Mr Hobby GX215 Metal Bloody Red. This is a metallic paint but is closest I have...
Left side of picture is painted, right side is not... Weird that they choose to use white plastic for the forearm to paint red, instead of the opposite...
Looks so much nicer!!!!
And the transformation video...
Bought from Taobao. Very tiny transformers that is ( I think ) designed to be used with the new Scorponok or titan class transformers city-bots. Though only about 5.5cm - 6 cm, they are not the smallest transformers in my collection ( see WST Jazz in the video ). I like to collect tiny TFs now as my cabinets and display shelves are running out of space. Soundblaster's thigh to hip ball-joints are a bit looser than preferred, but can still hold the position. Very much like to modify a bit the Galvatron, to add the "handle" and make the "foresight" piece (???) able to flip up to show behind the head in robot mode. Maybe next time...
Wanted to buy the Pocket Toy version but in the end decided on this. Did not choose the Magic Square version as (1) the back of the microcassette recorder mode looks very incomplete (2) only include 1 (blue) Rumble and 1 vehicle which I don't really like. And because NA version is smaller, the cassette minions look cuter. Quite a nice figure, and the only nitpick is the sub-elbow joint which is also the extender-arm joint gets loose easily after a few transformations.
I don't like the shoulder cannon/rocket launcher to be too far out. So I used a Tamiya pin-socket, trimmed and and (epoxy-)glued it to the shoulder cannon/rocket launcher, painted black, and super-glue as clear coat to protect the black paint from scratched off. Soundwave looks better to me now. Comparison figures are Hot Soldier Soundwave and Oversized KO G1 Soundwave ("... Because it's Precious~~~ !!!!!! ").
If not for the exposed fists/hands at the back in boombox mode, this figure will be a super nice figure... But it is what it is, and I can (barely) overlook this flaw, since it will be most likely to be displayed in robot mode. The robot mode is very solid, and closely resembled the cartoon character. A bit disappointed that there is only 1 cassette Ramhorn, but ok, can still overlook as Blaster is the main reason I bought this. Comparison figures used are KO Kabaya Blaster and G1 Blaster.
