    Yup my CubeX Huff arrived. he is a neat little thing. need to stiffen up his hips a little.

    also got my triple pack of hands for mp cars. these are quite nice. they do look very fragile the thumbs look kind of thin but they're very pose-able they feel better than the kfc ones i got for yoth prime.

    Got my first order from Chimungmung today. Shipping was 4-5 days and Tony kept me up to date the whole way. I will definitely use them again.
    Anyway, I got me some dress up parts for CHUG and MP's.



    I will hopefully get a shot of them on the bots on the weekend.

    Plastic quality is very good, light, but does not feel cheap. Not bendy plastic. Kinda like your handling Energon or Armada toy plastic. or those extendable pantry layered shelf plastic you put your canned goods on. The glossy metallic finish of the paints is very good as well, no smudges on mine. NO sharp edges as well. My fingers fit in nicely in holes of the holders.

    The spring that keeps both halves of the matrix is kinda stiff on mine which makes it a bit of an effort to keep open for the light up feature. As, you can see the light is really really bright.

    The base plate is hollow though but not soft plastic. and the autobot sigil that should be in the front is missing... a good size sticker can help fix that. I think in the original this was a heavy solid base stand, but here its juts a hollow stand plate. It still does the job well and is of same material and good finish as the matrix itself.

    Hope that helps.

    @CoRDS: are the fingers able to stay in certain poses and not bend down, not too loose are they?

    nope they are quite stiff. they are actually stiffer than MP prowls shoulders

    so there is prowl all jazz hands on one side and holding MP rumble . he would be holding him up if the shoulders were stronger.

    these ones are i think better than the hands i got for YOTH prime. i just need them to make some for mp12
