    I basically took an Icepick movie figure and put a couple of the parts from on a RID Arcee to sort of make a snow motorcycle thing. I wanted to make a fembot that can be posed along with my other Arcee custom on the shelf. Also, the movie Icepick was a crappy figure and I've been wondering what to do with it and this is the result. She has an alternate head that can still tuck in during transformation. I took the guns from sidearm sideswipe and modded them to have different barrels and allow them to have a "burst" mode with the handle able to come down. Lastly, the skis can come off and the original tire can go back to make her a motorcycle again.

    If this were a Hasbro product, I would buy two! I loved the original, so this is an awesome reference to that!

    Oh my god, TwinStar, FANTASTIC job, wow, you really made a really nice one. I guess you have the same love for this mold which I have, but you are so much more expressive with it.

    Can you pls share which brand/type paint (white) you used, and if you did air brush or can or hand brush. Thanks in advance buddy!!!

    Thanks

    Wow, thank you. I'm glad you like it.
    Thanks. I was hoping to turn it into a real snowmobile but, I couldn't get Icepicks threads on.

    Thank you very much.

    Thanks man, I do love the mold and I wanted something existing yet original to do with it. The white I used was a tamiya spray can for 1/4 of it then it ran out, and the rest was a can of Krylon fusion I got from walmart. I'm not fond of painting white since it doesn't seem to coat well in thin coats, even with primer. The touch ups I'm doing right now are brushed on and I'm using testor's model master acryl.

    Verry Good, I'm starting to think Hasbro should Sell this mold in Bulk since it works for so many characters
