    Well this is the reason I am selling my BT Prowl made from Alert. I finally got around to doing the head swap and painted the forarms. I am going to add some reprolabels to it but I have not ordered them yet. I will post updated photos when I get them on. I have so many Subaru molds already so I thought I would make my Prowl out of the Mazda mold and it turned out great. Not quite as G1 accurrate but still turned out nice.

    Great job. I did the same thing to mine but I also swapped the lower leg with the black one from jazz to give his legs more contrast. I am jealous of those darn launchers I could never get my hands on for a decent price. Hopefully Darkov's repro parts are cheap enough for me to buy several sets

    Not really sure why you have the feet TF'd the way you do but whatev

    I was considering swapping the lower leg/feet parts to Jazz as well. I will try it and see what it looks like. With the feet transformed like they are the figure stands taller.

    I picked up those launchers from board member Cascadia just last week for $8 shipped. She actually sold me two complete arming sets with 2 launchers and a sword in each set. Awesome deal at $16 shipped for two complete sets.

    Kick@$$!!

    Thank you for using Alt. Prowl's head, instead of just repainting Bluestreak/Ricochet/Smokescreen's...it's never looked like Prowl to me...that looks like Prowl to me!!
