    Why the slag can't THIS be part of the G2 BOTCON set, and repaint that Sideswipe as GOBOTS Megatron?

    Get rid of that awful water gun for Pyro, and do a Classics Prime as Clench?

    Classics Alternity Prime, maybe? Looks good for such a simple set of modifications.

    Oh I wish I had an extra Sideswipe kicking around. I have an extra bendy OP for the head. I like the BW Op head better, but man...

    Looking pretty cool. The head does seem to work great on that body.

    That link doesn't seem to work for me. Takes me to the main board page. I'd like to see how he did the legs as I really do hate those legs on the Sideswipe mold the way they're designed to be.

    Thanks. It does look better but only cos the lower legs are black and manage to somewhat hide the hollowness. Don't think that would work as well if they were a brighter color.

    I'm not sure I see a difference between the completed version and the WIP pics. Looks cool though. Nice job.

    Unfortunately, it looks like he removed the old WIP pictures. I don't believe his head crest (and a few other details) was painted blue in the WIP pictures, but were gray...
