WOAH!
Ok so I have not yet given the club my money to get Iceburg, but will it be cheaper to have a friend pick one up at the con?
Do I order thinking they might run out, or is it gonna be plentiful enough, in your opinions.

Hey guys,

I'm thinking of doing a simple custom/mod but it all hinges on if paint can be stripped from a head.

How would you do this? I've searched around the Tank and the best suggestions seem to be 70-91-99% rubbing alcohol or easy-off oven cleaner and a toothbrush. Have any of you used those and if so, how were the results?

Just need to strip a head completely for repainting because the factory applied paint is too thick and it destroys the original sculpt's fine details.

MP Soundwave arrived safely yesterday. What an awesome toy. Really brought me back to opening my vintage Soundwave 28 years ago.

I highly doubt over 3 full sets were sold in less than 2 hours...especially considering that free Kreon coupon expired. Anything is possible I suppose.

You guys talking about the TF's or the Joe Kreos?

I'd try the alcohol approach..

Alcohol won't do much. Acetone/nail polish remover is the quickest way to go. Try it if anyone doubts me.

I haven't spotted any joe kre-o sets anywhere yet, but I have seen plenty of TF ones, including new beast hunters an the micro-changer singles. Picked up Hook, Blastoff, Rampage and Bludgeon today just for fun. Not collecting all of these things at all, just getting the guys I like.

Also, same exact deal at the second Target I tried today: roadblock, SE and SS. I see a trend here. Not going to bother with other targets this weekend but I might go to one or 2 others sometime this week just to check.
