Yeah, I'm a massive fan of these two molds since one turns into the car I have and the other turns into the car I want (plus they both look totally badass in bot mode too) ;)

Noted. Will go hunting for a mini-tripod and some white lights :D

500kw preferred but can go lower. make sure you dont directly used the white light at the figure to prevent glare. once white light is acquired make sure you dont used flash on your camera

Thanks for the advice mate.

I've been taking pics with the flash off and the macro setting on - I might experiment with the timer setting too (to obtain more stable shots in the interim).

But yeah, I think lighting is something I really need to look into (and if I start getting serious about photography, maybe even investing in an SLR :D)

cool bro. i can see some potential, keep the photos coming.

Thanks Hursty!

Hahaha... just been practicing and experimenting with different camera settings and lighting, but thanks for the compliments.

So I guess in another few hours, I'll be the stock photographer for Hasbro/TakTomy? :p
