    while I'm really fond of Centurions, one issue I have with them is that they are overly large and, I dunno, sort of ungainly to play with.

    Default centurions

    Im tempted to get swingshot. I mean its just that one assault weapon i need. Im still deciding.

    I contacted reprolabels and they said they will do stickers in the future. Cant waiT. Iv asked many people online if they would scan the stickers decals and post them so all us centurion fans can print them out on sticker paper.

    So if any one is reading this post get those decals scanned.

    Thats awesome news about Reprolabels. I will finally put an order in and get my TF stickers aswell

    Has anyone ever disassembled a figure? My Max Ray arm snapped from the shoulder joint. I think I can fix it but I need to know how to get the torso open

    Its a pity the fan base isn't big enough to make a website/forum for Centurions.
    I wonder if Hasbro would ever answer a question in a Q&A if they would ever consider resurrecting this line. They own Kenner and I wonder if the still have the rights to this property

    I've cracked Thundercats, MOTU, MOTUC and Centurion weapons. But never a Centurion figure. I usually just start by pushing a sharp knife into the seam under the arm. Just keep pushing deeper until it cracks. It is very dangerous so if you are not pysically strong there are other methods that include drilling and prying. If you are under 18 you should ask your parents to do it for you.

    Default centurions

    I contacted hasbro and wrote to them if they would reintroduce the centurions and possibly reproduced the decals.

    Here is what they have to say:-

    Default A trade shout out.

    I have just aquired 3 Ace McClouds MIB.

    The boxes were a bit squashed but I was fairly happy with them in general. I'll probably keep 2 of them, but I have 2 loose Aces as well, so that leaves one up for grabs. If you are interested then PM me and offer a trade.

    Default centurions

    Wow 3 ace in MIB, very impressive. Iv acquired 5 empty centurion boxes which im going to put the figures in. This includes wildweasel, tidal blast, dr Terror, strafer, skybolt and max ray cruiser but no insert. Now im after other empty boxes which i can put the rest of my collection in. Im pretty surprised how mint the boxes are asides from a very few edge wear.

    Picture will be posted tommorow.
