    LMAO!! SAVIO BEE TOO THE RESCUE!!! :lol  SAvio, that i SSSOOO NOT what I thought you were doing bro. As similar as our idea's are, we have totally different takes to them. Hell, I'm already rethinking the hood mod!! LMAO. I just need to get my ass back in gear tomorrow and start working on him again.. I'm just.. freakin out at the thought of accidentally scrappin the one I've been workin on.. Perhaps you would be so kind as to simply mod one of the roof parts that you have extra for me?? :D

    lol thanks! I'm digging your door wings mod too! Really creative!

    It's not what I had in mind either. Originally I wanted just the wings to flip down but the triangular yellow corner would stop it, so I split the back window apart, added a hinge and attached the mini wings to the yellow triangles. I am done modding him!!! Time to paint him!

    Pm me about what exactly you are wanting and we can discuss more. Cool?

    He is so fun to pose, and I gotta say the mini wings have to be my favorite mod out of the rest.

    I don't know whether to thank you and OMEGAPRIME1983 or hate both of you.:wink: 

    I told myself I wasn't going to touch his one other than the first wing mod I did, now I have scratch made gauntlets and new small wings!

    Thanks!

    BTW, kick-ass job on this!!

    Oh man... I need a break from all the brain work! :crazy:  I would need 2 figures to do the mod, so there's a start! My mind and enthusiasm is still in decompression mode from finishing the mods... send me a pm and we can discuss further.

    Thank you, and good luck with yours! I can't wait to see how yours turns out.

    Very cool! :dj  I had similar thoughts but I wanted the mini wings to be separated from the window. I like how it looks though! You dig the windshield-on-the-butt ala Twins style? I didn't mind at first and went with the ball joint under the roof approach, but scrapped the idea after the fact because I didn't like how the inverted canopy assembly changed his physique. Looking at your pics though it doesn't look bad. And a PLUS for your approach IMO, is that the assembly can be compacted closer to his body!


    Prime is my homeboy! I'll take any crap from Prime with dignity and honor!

    :thumbs2:  No prob!

    That is fantastic! I love it! I hope you don't mind I just made an avatar out of it!

    I'm honored sir!

    Maybe they will? The movie line still has a long way to go what with the third movie and all. Wouldn't be surprised that they'll come out with an even better mold next year.
