    I never liked the CW Powerglide(I think the movie Powerglide is better), so I opted another version, Cybertronian Alt-mode.

    This is actually a really good mod for it. It defintely pops better. Good work.

    Very cool. I like how just a few tweaks really make his alt mode feel completely different, yet his bot mode is distinctly Powerglide.

    Ooh, pretty neat. Though I would've either filled in the arms to get rid of the missile pods, or used the arms as missile pods in vehicle mode.

    Interesting take and leaving the nosecone retracted makes for an interesting look for the ALT mode. I'm curious what it would look like with the rear wings the classic Powerglide red as well. Regardless, wonderful work here.

    Hey thanks guys! I think that some of you are looking at the plane in the wrong direction, the front of the original toy is now the aft of the new plane just some fyi if it was not clear.
    Look at my drawing that I based him on below.

    Oh Jus09, the arms can be positioned to have the missile pods, face forward :)

    Wow, Awesome! :) 

    I suggest sawing off the nosecone 'cone' part, to make it more of a thruster. This'll make it look more like the back than the original front.
