I just read this post and based on the first picture you had me too...looked legit for sure. Then I looked at the label, and THAT was the giveaway.
Good job harassing the locals!

hmmm. I make my own custom labels because of some trades with folks who have a knack for destroying the labels (exact matches to the originals), but it was clear that this was fishy and I did call you out on it, just not in the thread. So I guess we continue to wait for the new series...

Congratulations. You're the first kitbasher to fool someone into giving you +1 Karma for a fake Checkpoint you made from a Rodimus.

InvaderJes aims Megatron's Wheel-launcher at Grievous, even though the instructions say not to. Sproing!

Next time you pull a prank like this, don't use a custom you've showed off before on the site.

I know that someone else made one but I only got mine done within the past week or two and NEVER posted a picture of it. Also, I meant to slip into my "reveal" post that ionicdesign did indeed call me out on the thing being an April Fool's joke via PM but forgot to add it.

Yeah I think those of us who bought many booster have a glut of Rodimi.
The first one I got I was wow, that's cool to get such a prominent character as a rare, then there were three, four, and so on, and it wasn't so cool anymore....oh well.

Why do you think I repainted Rodimus and not some easier figure like the Decepticlone? While I don't have tons of them (two plus one still NIB) I'd rather have four standard Decepticlones than three standard Rodimus. If I ever want my second Rodimus back all I have to do is open a fun little baggy.

Not "lying", tricking. I'm like George Washington, I cannot tell a lie. Unless that was just a lie in which case I'm not like George Washington.

Check it out, I have M2 and SW5 figures in hand... Sadly thought at this point in time one must resort to buying over priced non-painted test shot prototypes if they really want them..... Like me.
