Description I happened across a fave childhood superhero I'd have never expected to see a figure of whilst in TRU the other night and grabbed him in a fit of nostalgia inspired impulsiveness... and, as a fan of the "Machine Man: 2020" story, I couldn't resist a little digibashing of his fancier future paintscheme... I still prefer the classic purple though

Now that's my kind of Machine Man.  I far, faaar prefer that colour scheme.  I remember reading the story when it was a backup strip in early Transformers issues and not really having a clue what was going on but enjoying it all the same.
Great paint job.  Really smooth and clean work there.

We'll just have to engage in an honourable duel over the colours. I never did agree with Swift about repainting him from his classic purple, which is why this is a purely photoshop repaint rather than a real one (you're not the first of my friends to be fooled by it, even though there's a caption declaring the digital fakery everywhere I have this up) Thanks for faving!

aw it's not a repaint?   damnit.  That's the only machine man i'd buy.  I don't like the red eyes on the purple one.  Looks too much like weird bug eyes.  The silver ones look more like cool shades.

I didn't realise it was photoshopped.  Reading it again i guess that's what 'digibashing' means?

It does indeed Given that it's just a straight recolour of an existing mould, there's a better than average chance of this variant seeing a future release, I daresay

Maybe they'll indulge when they have a gap to fill in a future lineup Thanks for faving!
