    Huzzah! The Masquerade group is complete! How about some weapons to fit the heads? Like, magnet weapons for the Dead End figure as a companion weapon for the Magnetic Charger head, and a blaster for the Punky Operative head?

    Received Sideswipe and Jazz!

    Sideswipe is all good to go.

    The head must be turned 180 degrees to transform - fit very snugly but will work.

    On Jazz, the ball joint holder broke after 3rd time getting on/off the neck. I have thickened the walls and added filleting to a few places to make sure it does not tear. It is also good to go!

    hey steamshield, i have a couple of more ideas if your interested. both ideas are pretty tough, but i think you can do it.

    1. a groove conversion kit for alpha bravo. similar to...
    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...29-combiner-wars-appreciation-thread-757.html ...just in case hasbro doesn't do it.

    2. four bladed rotor for vortex. i know a couple of people complained about vortex having only two, and i thought if anyone did the groove idea, they could use the extra blades for vortex. you could also make extra blades for people that don't do the first idea.

    the only downside i see from these are getting off the old rotors, cause i had a rough time with that,

    EDIT: when you get these guys
    3. either A, new arms for rook that'll let him hold weapons like a normal bot, or B, a sword designed specifically for him

    4. a new set of ears for the combined mode of battle core optimus prime (maximus) that look like cannons or missile pods.

    PRETTY PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    (parden double post)
    so aside from those kits mentioned above, are you still going to make heatrock from rook along with the other,older ideas?
    i can see an extending shoulder drill in a 3 piece set, shoulder front, back and a drill that has a barrel inside and has an extend-bar/button that lets it click and slide up and down for transformation, while his gun serves as vehicle-mode cockpit.

    Wait! You forgot one thing... Adaptors for Skydive and Rook to combine together for the torso of Gaia Guardian, and adaptors for them to become the chestplate (Rook/Heatrock) and shield (Skydive/Skyfeather) respectively for God Guardian!

    Edit: And a head for Rook that looks like Heatrock's might not be far off!

    @Sa173533 and @marvel_b You guys are turning this into my day job! Can't quit that yet... :p 

    I am definitely looking into ideas to make a better bruticus, including a conversion kit for Blast Off and some mods for Vortex...the others sorry mate will have to wait a little while longer. I have them all on "people's wish list" though.
