    Both nessesary figures are still available in stores. Finding a springer is a bit of a pain in the ass. maybe your not in U.S. ? I do want to get another springer and make another one, then see how much it could sell for on ebay.

    What? They aren't oriented correctly? They look the right way up on my iPhone and iPad...

    Nice work! Always cool to see the different takes on this character with this mold. I like the fact that the green on the legs is a bit different also. Springer was a mix of varying shades of green (at least two), so it definitely works. As for the painting, I dislike it at times too, man. haha! I love kitbashing & scratchbuilding parts, I just tend to put off the painting side of things for a while.

    I've had issues with my iPod Touch photos doing that. Even if you turn the device to the side to snap a landscape type shot, it still uploads it in a portrait/vertical style. Good thing my Galaxy SII doesn't do this......& it takes MUCH better photos. :)

    Wow, that's awesome. I love how the wheels are a lot neater than other mods of the figure, and how his legs are bulked out. I wish there was some way to make him taller though, since he looks really short next to RTS Jazz.

    The leftover Prime guy needs a new head and you BS him up a "submarine" altmode.

    A little creativity and a guy could come up with a promising insecticon.

    I'm scared of when one of you talented bastards does it. Cuz then it will make my triumph look like a turd, in comparison.



    These forums currently have enough insecticon mods buzzing about. Someone needs to spray some raid. :p

    This is good, but it's really missing the knee guards. The lower leg looks too short. I know it would be a pia to mod free floating knees, but that would take this to the next level.
