So this is my custom Menasor with the following mods:

1. Balljoints of all the individual bots have been stiffened with cyanoacrylate glue applied to the joints to add friction.

2. Ratchets have been removed and reenforced as a friction-based joint using hot glue gun glue.

3. Fanmode transformation to look more like the G1 cartoon using the Arm limbs as armor over Motormaster's arms, and leg limbs facing backwards. Leg limbs still have a knee bend (about 2 clicks worth)

4. Feet have been replaced by TFC Uranos feet which have been painted purple.

5. The normal Menasor face has been removed and replaced with the G1 (KO) Menasor face mask.

This is pretty cool. But having the arms like that makes them look stubby. Nice idea though.

That works really well. Car shoulder pads, who would have thought? How brittle/fragile is that KO head, because that looks really spot on to the original.

I think it balances the arm/leg proportions nicely. Shame that nothing can rescue that chest.

I'm loving the fact you used MM's arms instead of the combined stock method. Pretty clean lookin'. If there would be a cheaper way to get those feet of mimic this. Nice, man, nice.

I added one small thing to your concept: wrist pivots! Added bonus is they straighten to arms out.
