Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

It could be nice if this was not painted on grey : the red on the fabric is greyish :/
i saw the other pics of this custom and i'm not sure that is a V3...
Strange thing : on the pictures (and other ones) the EL arent turned on. Is it possible to light up only thr bubble opr the els ? In some v2 release it was possible by pressing the button for 3 sec i think
 
Question for WizardBTTF When you sanded the ankle bubble, was it still cloudy before you put the clear resin on or was it clear? I only ask because I have sanded mine with the 2000 grit sandpaper and it's still cloudy. Just wondering if I need to sand more, or if it'll be clear after I put the clear coat on.

Yes sanding it will keep it cloudy/frosted until the resin or clear coat goes on. (Make sure you clean it off before coating it) Once you put the resin or clear on it will turn clear. You only sand it so the resin/clear sticks better.

That's what I figured, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks for the quick reply!

It's a v3. The collars and toebox are a clear giveaway.

So.. I plugged mine in for the first time today, to charge them up for tonight. Can anyone tell me how I'll know for sure if they're plugged in or not? Took me a few minutes, but I think they're in. But since the shoes don't light up or blink when you plug them in, it's hard to tell.

All I did was put some clear nail polish on and they look so much better! Didn't even need to sand it.

I sort of turned my cord back and forth while pressing it up. When plugged in all the way the black plastic on the cord was flush with the bottom of the heel strap.
 
I'd like to see a colorway after the BTTF logo with the LEDs being blue, yellow, red. Or blue, red, yellow. Which ever looks better.

One a side note, it would have been cool to see actual different in film variations of the MAG. Pretty much every nike shoe has different color variants.
 
I need me a gray, silver, and violet Decepticon themed pair. White would be silver and the teal, el, and clears would be violet.
