    I wanted a small Perceptor from Iron Factory with G1 alt-mode

    what's done:
    1) a completely new eyepiece/ocular - i used part of pen as a base pard of the gun of Optimus alternatives (rear end) and the LEGO as an eyepiece with glued mirror sticker (used for sights of guns for Gundam).
    2) made retractable eyepiece arm - everything works without PARTSFORMING!
    3) as alt-modes of the microscope has not been scheduled by designers - the Microscope leans back
    To avoid this, made an additional support, which rotates in the robo-mode parallel to the top back (black lever)

    I just ordered an Iron Factory Perceptor/Soundwave two-pack. I don't suppose you could provide some instructions, could you?
