Breakaway is my new favorite mold of the RoTF figs but after seeing the game art, I felt he needed some tweaks. Here's a somewhat easy fix for your Breakaway to get him looking more like his game art. I found the landing gear kept his upper body/nosecone from moving all the way down and the front windshield needs to be carved underneath, the back of his head too so he can tilt forward. Also, acetone the top and front of his lightpipe eyes and they'll shine clear blue again.    **Please attach your images as per Radicons forum requirements. Thanks! ~Radicons Staff**

Thanks to SmokescreenGT for the sig!

Gonna work on Sideswipe's chest-lock joint next. "If my father were alive, I could make him proud!"

Attaching those images wouldn't hurt either since it's part of our board requirements.  | |
