Painted some of the gray parts silver where they're supposed to line up with silver paint on the toy, but decided to leave the wheels alone. Mixed up a somewhat more visible purple accent color and added it to more parts.
( Annoyingly, the silver paint looks different under my photography lights, the matching is a lot better in person. )

Catman: Minor Arcana #3 - Cups: 1998. The Godmarket is in full swing, and with ASH more powerful than ever, Edouard decides to take a sabbatical to help a mysterious cat-woman try to figure out where she came from...but is he ready to deal with the truth about cats and gods?

My Ironhide feels like a knockoff, but Rodimus Minor is pretty good. Neither is worth going through a scalper for, though.
( And I touched up my Rodimus Minor already. )

Okay, I'm on the last tape to transfer to DVD, so time to check and see what eps I'm missing. Keeping in mind that Volume XIX is currently in the mail to me, and XX has been announced, there's a few eps not listed here that I don't have at the moment but will have sooner or later.

KTMA: I only have K05 and K13.
Season 1: 108-110 I have without host segments, I'm entirely missing 112 and 113. (Update: 111 has the middle host segments, but not the opening or closing.)
Season 2: missing 203, 205, 209 (pro version does exist, but is out of print...a used copy runs about $25 on Amazon, new copies $90+). (Update: 201 is trimmed like 111.)
Season 3: missing 302, 306-310, 313, 315-317, 321 (still in print, but comes with yet another copy of Manos).
Season 4: missing 411, 412, 416, 418.

I have everything from Seasons 5-10 in either pro or off-VHS form. So, leaving aside KTMA eps and the two that I could theoretically buy but might be a bit more expensive than I'd like, I'm missing 18 eps and have three more that I have poor copies of. Season 3 is my biggest hole, more than half the eps I lack are from that season. And a lot are never getting pro releases due to rights issues.

Dropped a buck in quarters into one of those claw machines so I could fish out one of the knockoff Gundam figures I saw inside. Too low-detail to do a serious paint job, but then I noticed the abdomen area looked kinda like teeth....

All mildly recommended. Sledge/Throttler is the best core design, but ends up ugly. Leadfoot/Pinpoint and Icepick/Chainclaw are both just kinda mediocre overall. Sledge does have the advantage of coming with Throttler, who turns into a Core Drill of sorts, for the piercing of heavens and suchlike.
