Does it make the transformation any trickier?
Heh heh... sorry for all the questions.  I just remember trying to map out how I could do the same thing, and it seemed like it would be an awkward placement.

No probs dude, I actually had your original concept as my computer screen wall paper for a week so it'd inspire me to get it done.
The doors glue in really well and doesn't interupt the transformation at all, the only cutting I had to do was the pegs left on the arms which held the doors. I still have to fill the little peg section in with styrene.  | |

Desktop Wallpaper, eh? That's not a bad idea... lord knows I spend enough time staring at this screen every day. It might as well be telling me to do something productive.

Wow! Very nice! I've seen people make Classics Shockwave from the Shockblast Energon mold, but I'd never think about using Silverbolt as the base! Can't wait to see the final product!  Quote: |
