    So I scored a spare Classics Sunstreaker a while back, and intended to get an extra Classics Sideswipe, get the Repro Labels stickers, do the head swap, and make Classics Tigertrack and Patriot from there.

    Well, 2 things....

    1) Can't seem to score the Sideswipe
    2) Realized how cheesy the Repro Tigertrack stickers are.

    So I decided, f**k it, I'm still a radicon, I'll take this into my own hands. And so I did, and I'm very pleased with the results. I added the side exhaust pipes from my movie Clocker (because they look dumb on him), and modded the transformation a little. The shoulder gun is ball-jointed, able to rotate with his head, and his hand guns are from a K.O. Starscream. And yes, he can stand up and transform just fine. The leg mod isn't even noticeable in altmode. The paint and gloss doesn't hinder transformation at all. In fact a lot of his joints were worn and loose, so I added paint on them to tighten them significantly.

    Debating if I'll sell it or not. Maybe I'll trade it for stuff I need. PM me if interested.

    Nice work, I like that it's not just a straight 'recolour' of Sideswipe. Makes him more of his own character. :)
