    I love this! Is it bad I like the gun more than the toy?

    Speaking of the head, how big is it compared to Generations Sideswipe, because I like this head more than the Gen version

    here's a shot for comparison...
    head size is comparable, but they attach in exactly the opposite way... CHUG Sides' is on a ball joint, while FoC Sides' is on a neck stem with a ball joint, so...
    ...
    nothing a dremel wouldn't fix...

    Yup, dremels are your friend, my only concern was size and it looks like it could fit nicely and look damn good, specially with the new addon kit

    Hmmm... You need to cheat a little... pivot the gun in his fist so it swings across his chest, then stretch out the other arm so the hand grabs onto the small cannon port thingie below the main muzzle...
    you'll need to rotate both shoulders forward a little until you get the pose I got, but it shouldn't be too hard to do, and he's stable once you get him in place. Then he looks like he's got a giant minigun or flamethrower... XD
