    Does anyone have both the PotP wreckgar/groove and the older generations Wreck Gar / Scrapheap?

    I am wondering if the heads are compatible, if the ball joint socket is approximately the same size, and if shapeways heads might be compatible:

    ...I tried to look up gifs of that Dr.Smoov video where Optimus renamed Kup "S#!tpile" (what ARE the rules regarding swearing on these boards, anyway?) in relation to this question, but, and this is no joke, all I got were photos of Bayformer Prime.

    I think I'm leaving it only because I'm running out of time. Christmas gift for the teenage kiddo. Working on one more alrernate head, for the scattershot torso.

    Edit:

    Ooo, I snagged a loose Rodimus head. I'll be swapping the faceplate now and using that instead of the plain block it currently is using. I will be painting the faceplate at a minimum.

    thats a shame. fire truck really doesnt go well with a group of trash oriented motorcycles. Are you modding the scattershot? I planned on removing the nose since the minnow didnt have a protruding nose. maybe adding something to the top to simulate the "tower" it had.

    yeah you have no idea how many times i watched that video.

    Bumblebee: "i feel like a gold bug"
    Kup: "when u get to be my age you feel like a piece of shit"
    Prime: "and thats exactly who you'll be, shitpiece"

    lol. now i gotta go find that video and watch it.

    I should be getting my scattorshot friday....and the modding shall begin!

    VERY nice! I have 3 of these. One to stay as Wreck Gar and the other 2 will be part of a custom combiner team.

    You know if you're going to make a Junkion Combiner you have to use Hot Spot as the Torso that way you can make it a six Junkion Combiner and add the Legends Combiner Wars Wreck-Gar in there too.

    I'm thinking Hot Spot could be Detritus which is literally the only Junkion who isn't a Motorcycle though he's normally a repaint of Hound for some reason.

    The Legends Wreck-Gar could be Rum-Maj or Nancy both of which are female Junkions and the robot mode's body shape kind of already lends itself to be female. Personally I prefer the name Rum-Maj as Nancy just sounds like a human woman. Rum-Maj actually sounds like a Junkion.

    Anyway you can see my own custom Junkions over on this page. Junkion Sticker Template They use the old generations mold but you didn't say they had to be combiners, you just asked to see our own custom Junkions. ;)

    Yeah, I wasn't use to seeing the torso mode without Groove attached to it so I didn't notice that was the same mold.

    Also I was mostly talking to the person who posted the picture with Silverbolt as the torso on the previous page.

    been toying around with scattorshot and came up with this mod. there is absolutely nothing done to this except just transformed differently.

    thinking about removing the nose cone and the tail fin.

    I was considering using Betatron/Scattorshot, but putting all his white parts in yellow dye. Heck, might put all of him in there. Some of the red will orangify. That way he'll have more Junkion colors.
