    That is so great. Brilliant idea, and it's amazing how well it works in both modes. Man... I don't want to damage my SG Junkions by doing this to the real thing, but that almost makes we want to try repainting a Junkheap or something.

    Really nice work.

    Actually there is no damage or modification required to the Junkion body, at all.

    You just pop off the original head, pop off the shoulders, and then put the insecticon head and wings on. When first installing the wings and insecticon head, you may need to pop them on and off to get the fit just right. I would sand a little of the wing and test fit it on the shoulder. Take it off and sand some more. But nothing I did has affected my SG Junkion.


    I need to find a junker bombshell and shrapnel. The problem is that their heads look a lot smaller than kickback. So im not sure how well it will work. Bombshell might be able to work. But Shrapnel will be difficult due to the stag beetle jaws. I just dont see a place to put them that wouldnt be permanent. Im trying to get Madein Japan to help me out with this.

    That makes it even more impressive. Nice!

    If you could find a way to build a swivel into the jaws, you could mount them the same way as the wing... just have them ride alongside the wheels in cycle mode, and then twist 90 degrees in robot mode to stand parallel to the chest.

    That's great. But it needs a Decepticon sticker.

    Or you could try to find a way to angle the stag beetle pincers back, so they slighly resemble exhaust pipes? They have that angle in them so they might fit around the kickstand area perfectly.
