Hey all, told you this blog wasnt dead!

Two links 1 story, sounds like a bad fanfic website for Legend of Zelda.

Anyway, we're not here to talk about that, we're here to discuss the links. ok so they both link to information on the Shadow Scythe armor, a repaint of the upcoming protector armor (which has a december release) from Fansproject. Apparently the shadow Scythe armor (no easy acronym there) is due out prior. Problem is, the color scheme works on for two super exclusive and rare figures, Henkei Wildrider or Botcon Shattered Glass Rodimus. The former is the cheapest option, but still commands at minimun $60 on ebay and such. So unless you already have one of those versions, the Shadow scythe armor is kinda meh. Its a product that's already retailing for aroudn $80 and you're paying at best a minimum of that for one of the figures its ideally designed for. I'm sorry but its not worth that to me to have a nemesis rodimus.

The plus for theis dark redeco though is that the color scheme is glorious and its come witha motherf-ing scythe. every time i've type Scthe, i've accidentally typed Scyther, and this is not a pokemon thing. :) and i misspelled it there too, wow. anyway,i kinda of see the point of this, btu unless i get the challenge at cybertron 3pack and get someone to repaint that rodimus for me into the appropriate colors to match this armor, i'm not gonna be getting this.

The protector armor is on my holiday wish list.

Now for you guys, comment below with your take on the armor.

see you next post.
