    I really should try to put some detail in the one model I've build thus far but I'm not super confident with either paint or markers.
    Gunplas are easy to get here in Italy, we are the only nation outside Japan that got the OG Mobile Suit Gundam at the time (due to a clerical error, it should have been tied to the toys but the license ended in a package of anime sold to one of our broadcasters) and in general mecha anime are among the stereotypical "boomer anime" so model kit shops always have some gunpla and other super robot and real robot model kits (personally it was slightly before my time, I only remember the occasiona Daitarn III rerun when I was a kid only watched Gundam with the new dub a few years ago).
    I don't think I've ever seen Transformers-themed kits though.

    Call me weird, but when it comes to Transformers, I always enjoyed them based on their robot form, so Im into the non-transforming figures! My hobbylobby had this one, Megatron (IDW?) G1 Bumblebee and Starscream, and they were on sale for 30 each... yes I got them all!😅 Awesome vid man!

    How many Optimus Primes do you have in your collection? I have this one and more than a hundred others. I’ve lost count. I want to get the Nemesis Prime version of this kit.

      It's been a while since I built this so I don't know what piece that is. Still, you should be able to gently pry it back out with a spudger.
      Good luck and thanks for watching.

    Hey Bert, quick question, did you glue any parts such as the earpieces or the hip skirts as those parts tend to fall off on mine. Thanks

    • @BertTheStormtrooper
      @BertTheStormtrooper  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, I did not glue any of my parts. I'm considering maybe gluing the grill pieces, those tend to pop off when I'm messing with him, but everything else is tight. Probably due to the fact that I clear-coated everything before assembling.

      Most of their products are none transforming action figures and model kits. They only have one partially transforming figure and it’s Victory Saber I think.

    Hey there, i was plannig to start a collection of transformer figure and this optimus is kinda perfect for me
    But the only problem i have there is no megatron g1 to match thiss guy, was thinking to get R.E.D megatron but is a bit smaller so idk
    My alternative is to get optimus idw version so i can get all the model kits,
    do you have a reccomandation to some megatron that can match this optimus? It would be better that he doesn't transform too

    • @BertTheStormtrooper
      @BertTheStormtrooper  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not really, not if what you're looking for is a model or action figure.
      They have a Megatron, but it's not G1, though he's fairly close. All we can do is wait to see if there's enough interest for Flame Toys to make a G1 version like they did for Prime.
