Not exactly encouraging for me when I have the new one on pre-order. But at least it sounds like it cleans up easily.

Re: how's your MP Megs?

Thanks for the tips all, I'll keep this in mind when I get my Megs in March which lead me to the question is the new reissue made of the same material or did they fix this issue?

Re: how's your MP Megs?

I'll add that after you clean it up, you should put on a few coats of clear paint so you won't have to deal with that problem ever again.

I used Tamiya X-22 Clear, its Acrylic based and cleans easy with just plain tap water. And it's like $3.75 a bottle and found at my local hobby store

Re: how's your MP Megs?

I just opened my MP Megatron yesterday after it sat in storage for over 2 years. It has some tarnishing on the feet but it's hardly noticeable.

Re: how's your MP Megs?

Now I'm wondering if I should open my first release Megs.
Been in storage, far from being any moisture around where the box is stored and with other MP's. Low humidity in the house.

Think it'll be bad?

Re: how's your MP Megs?

I have the 1st release. Every square inch of metal is covered in cosmic rust. Was thinking about just buying a new one but I might try this rust killer instead!
