    I pegged Hound's guns into the latter and the Prime Armor pegs into the guns.

    Great minds think alike...I haven’t picked up more than two POTP wreckgars yet...but I’ve been doing some molding and casting to have some custom heads ready for when I have more than two.

    I haven’t had time to clean or sand down the parts that didn’t come out clean.

    That's perfect thanks. It's not as convincing as I'd hoped however. But it's great to actually see it. :thumb

    Oh man, that is an old post.

    That is the head from Botcon 2016 Ratchet. He was the customizing class exclusive that year. I got one unpainted on ebay right after the convention years ago.

    image.jpg Got Backwing today. He has the warped fins though. I gotta say I'm really loving his color scheme.

    Congrats! He's one of my favorite molds, and one of the building blocks, so to speak, of my recent collection. :)

    I have multiples because I use both Blackwing and Dreadwind as generic Decepticon troopers.

    am doing the same! Have a few MaidenJapan heads too I'm thinking about trying. The trick is the antennae - I'd say plastic toothpicks!

    I was thinking of using a couple of moon racers for the legs, but I think the jets might be better suiting for this combiner.

    It is a great mold. The alt mode is a little chunky, but I'm fine with that.

    Yeah, the head on the top right is cast from a maidenjapan head that I bought that already had two broken antennas. I’ll sand down the nubs, throw some paint on it...and boom...all new, all different Junkion

    Never underestimate the power of you own ability to be resourceful.

    I just popped some of the heads off some of my Junkions and started casting...you could use any head from another bot you’ve got that would fit the width of the wreckgar/grooved combiner peg width to make a cast. That’s basically what I did.
