    Great job intergrating the Lego ball joint things. I could never get them to look that uniform with the figure

    Looks good so far, though the one thing I'm a little weary of is the use of the bionicle ball joints. Are they being used solely for connection purposes with the joints a separate part or as the knee and shoulder joints themselves. If the latter, I'm afraid the combined mode may end up being unstable with it being made out of voyager class figures; at worst a floppy mess going off my own experiences with bionicle joints. Just my two cents.

    Otherwise, nice job.

    so are the previous two made entirely from scratch? maybe just heavily modded?

    I actually made sure that the
    connections were very stiff and sturdy
    so that problem could be adverted.

    Swindle and Blast off are heavily modded Crossovers
    Jeep Iron man and Flying wing war machine respectively.

    Added some silver highlights
    and added some small details of purple
    to homage the Original vortex toy.

    Vortex & Bruticus Update!

    Here's some of the touch ups that
    vortex received.

    Vortex and Blast off with
    Fall of Cybertron Optimus prime.

    And finally:

    Funnily enough, Vortex needed NO modification
    to fit Bruticus' hand. Isn't that weird?

    ENJOY!

    The combination ports have
    been added to Onslaught.
    The leg combination ports
    required the most work.
    will post pics soon...
