      Kingdom cyclonus, at least on the toy deco, did something similair where the eyes are light-piped and also painted, allowing the benefits of light piping and the penefits of painted eyes to coexist. However the kingdom cyclonus mould has an entirely clear neck joint as a result. Yes, the entire ball socket in his head is on the same clear part as the eyes.

      Yeah I think he was around 220 usd at the time. Fanstoys has been reissuing a bunch of their older in demand releases like their insections and their dinobots, but at a ridiculous markup and obviously this guy was no exception. Just for reference, their insecticons were around 100 usd each and now bbts is selling them for 400+ as a set. The worst part about it is that they're still selling out at that price.

    Also yeah, big yikes on this thing. G1 designs honestly never have to be so complicated unless the model did some serious BS like pretty much half the 86 line up. Skyfire was not one of them, which is insane because it was an original design like the 86 characters. Siege nailed complexity for it, perfect balance. Change the surface sculpting and add some joints and bam it's an MP.

    The sad part about not having chromed eyes is that even figures with a light up feature ignores them. I can think of several figures that have an LED in the head, but looks dead if you don't turn them on. It's such a small detail, yet most manufacturers ignore it.
    I also had the weirdest idea while I was bitching about the lack of painted eyes. Imagine a figure with solar panels. That will keep the battery charged while you use the LED function as much as you want! Like the solar calculators. Yes, I know this is impractical. People also might not like to see the solar panel strip on their figure.

    • @Blind_Prime
      @Blind_Prime 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      LED eyes don't have to be that strong or bright so a simple solar panel could do the job. Though hiding it may be a little tough. Since those lights don't take much energy you can go with a smaller solar panel and place it where lightpiping would normally be. Connect that panel to a small rechargeable very small battery and pray the head can hold all of that.
