    Hey hey,

    I recently picked up FAB Fire Blast Prime (the Hot Rod/Rodimus homage) I was thinking about doing a head swap... any ideas as to which would look best?

    What about Ion Blast Jazz. Maybe shave the ears down ???
    Could suit a Hot Rod/Rodimus look.

    That depends... do you want a big-head kiddie-former look (like most of the FAB figures), or do you want him to fit in with regular TFs? There's enough detail and articulation on that Prime to actually pull that off I think.

    You could go with an Energon Rodimus head... there are lots of those floating around parts lots on Ebay. Or you could cut the visor off a Cybertron Smokescreen. He's got a round red helmet, and a decent face for Rodimus.

    A more obvious choice would be the head from 6" Titanium Rodimus, but you may not have a spare kicking around. :) 

    For myself, I'm planning on turning that mold into Huffer, after a couple of modifications. With my luck, I'll have him -almost- done when Hasbro announces an awesome Classics/Universe Huffer. :rolleyes2
