That looks great! Folding back the doors and bringing the head forward really improved the figure.

Now I'm looking at my poor Soundwave and Mudflap...

Very nice. I used the ROTF Head and swapped it with the Premium head. I also swapped the back heels with the 07 Ironhide. That way the Premium has the black heels instead of white. I don't mind the guns. In fact, I also gave my Premium Ironhide the ROTF guns too!

Careful. It's tricky with all the gears and little pieces but I think it makes the "premium" figure look a little MORE Premium. I would have also swapped the white shoulder joint but couldn't.

That's the thing about the premiums that annoyed me, they improved an LOTS of stuff but made little things like that look bad.

I don't have a dremel either. It's dangerous but I heated up a thin alan wrench and poked a hole through the plastic. I used pliers to hold the wrench. Just have to go very slow and very careful.

Not sure if it will work for this mod though. I've tried it for other stuff.

This is phenomenal!!!!!! I love the door mod though, that REALLY helps the look of the figure.
