    Nice! Really like those Energon swords, once you've got them thinned down just a bit they'll look awesome!

    that fusion cannon mod for wfc prime is great, and the blades for classics prime finally give the kibble a use. They actually make that kibble look acceptable to me. Great stuff.

    For the record, regarding the Prime blades, I've been modeling several variations on the curved-sword theme. However, I will accept any user-submitted ideas, as long as the designs are not overly complicated. PM me with sketches or other graphic media, so that I can accurately transfer your ideas into printable models.

    I believe I've also finalized the modeling for the fusion cannon adapter. Orders for it will open once I receive my next batch of parts.

    I only have the female side of the adapter finished. I'll be able to model the male side when I receive my Energon Prime. Sadly, I don't own a Wingsaber.

    Hi process, regarding classics prime blades, why don't you extend the attachment part, including L-shaped handles, L-shaped handles just like the one Universe/ROTF Onslaught uses for Fansproject's Colossus' (Bruticus) double-barreled backpack in normal robot mode? Of course, to not be too tricky, is better if they go on top of the fists, and not under them. They 'll look bulkier and more solid in my opinion ;)

    My original idea was to completely cover the fists, but I decided to go with the simpler clip system to minimize cost and visual clutter. I could make different clip systems in the future, but for now I think it works fine as is. I'm more interested in designing different blades at the moment.

    Or what about something like this? They could act both as blades and as wrist-mounted rilfles ;)

    Design-wise, if I'm happy with what I've done, I'll certainly consider alternate kinds of blades and attachments. I've already stated in this thread that I'm happy to model any ideas you guys may have.

    Color-wise, I'm neither painting nor selling these parts personally, so if you want red blades for your Nemesis, you'd have to paint them yourself.

    I should have some news to report tomorrow on the swords and WfC adapter.

    In the meantime, I thought I'd share this. This is an idea I've been playing around with for funsies. It's still in a very early conceptual phase, and there's a good chance I won't ever be releasing a finished design, as I'm anticipating that this will be fairly cost-prohibitive.

    Anyway, the idea is to take the electronics from the smaller gun of the TFC Gear of War 2 set, and to simply drop it into my G2-styled backpack/rocket pack for Classics Prime, with some weapon attachment points and other knick-knacks. It's in two piece at the moment, because I was testing the backpack fit and the circuit box seperately. The aluminum tape is there to compensate for the translucency that the build material has because it's only about 1mm thick; the LED is only supposed focus on the lightpiping.
