After seeing the pic above and the one on the first page of this thread, it still looks like the Henkei one was used in the picture but maybe it's just the lighting.

well there's a minicon named stronghold and it seems to look a bit like this mold. http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Stronghold

Re: Is Stronghold supposed to be Fortress or Maximus?
So other people have been using rubbing alcohol to remove the green paint apps. I removed the stickers off mine to do so but ruined the red C-114 decals.

Here is the result after paint removal and re-stickering.




Someone requested a side by side.

one bit of advice, use a philips screw driver and unscrew the two screws under the cockpit windows. Then pull off the stomach/torso part and then pull off the windows.

Do this before you try to remove the paint from the top of the SWAT truck roof. The windows have paint on it and is rather susceptible to rubbing alcohol.

Here is what vehicle mode looks like after paint removal. (I did not do such a great job haha)
