    Couldn't wait to get this guy done...a Coronation Starscream Tetrajet! I spent a little extra time on Starscream, after all, he's the man! Based on the Starscream-Supreme figure, I used his removable tailfins that came with him (finally found a use for those ugly things) to create his shoulder armor and made his removable cape out of felt and rivets. I then gave him a ball-jointed neck and thanks to Frenzy_Rumble a pair of articulated hands that really tops it off! I also scratch-built his custom display stand to resemble the top half of Cybertron, which I was very pleased with...

    Oh, and he's up for sale on E-bay :wink:  Custom Transformer G1 Starscream Coronation Tetrajet - eBay (item 140363832136 end time Dec-06-09 18:18:58 PST)

    No doubt it would be possible, but very tedious for that scale--Isn't the LOC like 3" tall? I'm experimenting with the Voyager scale and even that size is a PITA.

    Yes, these are resin-cast Gundam hands reproduced by Frenzy_Rumble, he's had them on e-bay recently. They make a huge difference!

    Oh, Skywarp is engraved on the "Must Do" list, trust me. :thumbs2:  After all, he's one of the first Tetrajets we ever saw in the original cartoon. His colors are bad-ass, can't wait to apply them to this custom.

    I noticed you're in Ohio, did you get a chance to go to Botcon there last year? I went and also got a chance to see the "Bodies" exhibit while I was there. That was interesting. :eek:
