Toy Review - TAV25 Runabout

[prjkt]

So? I have 2 Blackjacks and I still grabbed him

And I think I'm going to end up with 2 Runabouts myself...

I'm actually surprised by the number of faction symbols in addition to the big round sticker (which will be coming off on mine) - there's what, six in total? Someone wants everyone to remember what side he's on.

Got any tips on how to take that sticker off? I always tend to leave residue when I try to remove them.

I do understand if people don't have an overwhelming connection to G1 not getting this figure if they already have Blackjack. For years I would never buy recolours of toys, even if they were recoloured into characters I liked. It's just these days the toy companies reuse the molds that much I don't seem to have much of a choice

These ones don't leave any residue. Not like the old G1 types which I'd just rub quite a bit until all the residue had rolled up into something I could pick off

Tea tree oil is a good sticker/residue remover, just be careful as the paint could react with it and thats not good . This works really well with G1 toys, don't even have to take the sticker off. Just us a cotton bud and apply it to the sticker. Give it a little while to adsorb in it it falls right off, no residue at all. If you are appling new stickers just make sure that all the tea tree oil is removed or they will come off again. I wipe them down with a warm damp cloth then dry them. Works every time.

just picked up mine from the post office, good little figure, no surprises when compared to Blackjack, other than the colours, will take some comparison shots sometime soon

here we go




As you can see I took off the scanning app sticker, pretty much no residue left behind from this one, obviously designed to be easily removable in this case. I have covered up the smaller tampographed symbols with Reprolabels' Hologlow stickers as they look cool, waiting on my next order for the bigger symbol as I've run out of stickers.

If I get the chance, will snap a shot of him as Menasor's chest.
