    Made this Alpha Trion from a BIS Cyclonus and an Energon Quickstrike head. I know from the photos I need to go back and touch a few things up. I'm working on modding the front of the plane to fit the head in alt mode, which seems pretty doable at this point. I shaved the sides of his head, removed the visor and drilled the matching hold in his left hand because that always bugged me :D 

    I'm also looking for more Quickstrike or E. Bulkhead heads to make a couple more of these in different color schemes. So PM me if you can spare a head or 2

    I simply cannot believe nobody ever realised that head was perfect for Alpha Trion. Excellent work, and sure to inspire many others.

    Yeah I'm trying to figure out where he will go in my display. The obvious choice is the pre-earth era shelf but Alpha is always changing his look based on what it says in the IDW-verse
    Thanks
    IT does feel a bit like magic.
    Thanks, not a lot of it is my paint work. Just the red, silver and his head. I always pic molds that don't require a lot of paint.
    I doubt mine version is the first version to use this head. Thanks for the kind words.
    Well it's out there now if you wanna tackle it.
    Thanks
    Me too!
    Thanks
    Thanks
    I think so too
    Word. It was indeed. I hesitate to call him that because I want an Alpha Trion in my collection.
