alright here is what i did. the part i used was the left arm from a beast machines motorcycle drone. i removed the yellow fingers and took the arm off the ball socket. i then took the only screw out of the arm to allow it to separate but not come completely apart as this is held together at the top with the black cap.

all i simply did was then separate the arm enough so that it went over blast offs crotch/waist, like in the picture and fits perfectly. now granted, it make the piece look weird but this is mostly hidden by his legs when configuring the arm.

the other end of the cycle drones arm does look better a little, but in order to use that side some cutting and moding to the arm of the drone would be needed where this quick stand in requires no cutting.

one cool thing is that he can still transform into alt mode and it will stay put and looks like a cool booster.

The first pics are to show how it all works out and then i did a quick paint of the piece to blend it in a little more.

Again just kind of an idea, but i think i will reverse the cycle drone arm and mod it so the other end sticks out as the flamethrower end.

So until someone in shapeways of a 3P creates a piece we will have to just keep trying!

That looks amazing! It's great to see what other weapons work for Blast-Off. And very nice paint job as well, very cool

Both mods are awesome. I think I have one of those drones laying around somewhere. Time to dig it out and give that mod a try!
