    Generations Voyager Sky Byte. I have to admit that I was disappointed with this figure out of the box. I liked the shark mode well enough (and who doesn't like a flying shark amirite?) but the bot mode was kind of a floppy, hollow, kibbly mess.

    I gave him a new right hand (with wrist swivel) and forearm, so that he can actually hold 5mm peg weapons (the gun is from Iron Factory's IF-EX01 Upgrade Kit for FOC Voyager Grimlock). I just folded up his gimp right hand and turned the forearm 180 degrees. Also gave him some new lower leg pieces (parts from a junker Transformer Prime RID Voyager Megatron) to bulk up his calves. Finally, I gave him this wing configuration for his shark shell and fins back kibble so it holds tight without flopping around. He partsforms but there is no damage done to the original figure. I like him a lot more now.

    Ha! Great idea with the calf pieces. It really looks like they belong on him.
