I dunno, possible chance the paint tolerances won't get fixed because they're FINE, transforming him is the problem because of the clearance issues, you have to be gentle as fuck and hope things go in place right away, I transformed mine, he got scuffed, minor scuffs were ignorable, bigger scuffs because things didn't cooperate (you really do need to mode the gun silencer attachment, don't let the vid circulating around fool you I fucking did that because it wouldn't go on otherwise and still scuffed) or required additional force (the gun barrel itself won't sit flush so I had to slap it, opening it back up to robot mode required additional leverage from a screw driver which BENT in the process, least paint scuffs were kept to sections not easily visible).
I say this as (obviously) an mp36 owner and an mp hot rodimus owner, that chrome wore off after 4 transformations, yes I know one shouldn't touch chrome but I have man handled chrome before, breath polished them and they were fine, I was seeing bare fucking orange plastic, luckily chrome pens exist.
So, you want him, get him, don't want paint scuffs, choose a mode, its going BACK is where the scuffs happen, you're only missing out on pic related anyway
