    Need some help guys,
    i have a project(which i will keep secret at the moment)
    and i need some help with it.
    i need to know will a TFA Legends Bumblebee fit into TFA Grimlocks chest in Dino mode?

    Also i want to bulk up the legs, fo the up coming project i do not like the fact that the legs are sooo skinny(Go Eat Someting! lol)
    any ideas on that one? Replacing it with something else?
    LMK im really stumped on this one.


    Thanks guys :)

    Sounds like an interesting bash! I have an idea but I won't post my thought! As far as Legends BB, I never grabbed him :) ()so I don't know if he will fit where you want him to fit. Grimmy's chest area isn't all that spacious actually!:thumbs2:

    Well, if you pick up Legends BB and he doesn't work out, I'll buy him off ya! I passed early on with the Animated and Cosmos/Rodimus/Wheelie/Warpath waves thinkin' they'd be all over. Boy did I miss out! So maybe that will motivate ya!

    legends bumblebee is small. but i'm not sure it will fit in the chest cavity (just under his head yeah??). if you took Grimmy's robot head out and hollowed out a little of the chest it may do. but i think it would take a bit of trickery. would you want him in robot or alt mode sitting in the chest?

    Look, i have 7 Legends Bumblebees, and i don't think it will fit. Considering Grimlocks Chest Cavity has to move during Transformation, you can't alter the part it slides on, and the Bumblebee's never gonna fit in the yellow section.

    You'd have to mod it so much i'm afraid you'll either find it doesn't work at all, or it makes your Grimlock's chest extremely fragile.

    In other words, no. In fact, no matter what part you have planned, i have major doubts.

    As for bulking up the legs, whose legs? If you mean Grimmer's, well, they retract for Robot Mode, so they can't be bulked up, and you said you were removing the bot parts from Bumblebee anyway, which includes the upper legs. Why you want to remove the robot parts i don't know, as they don't cost any space in car mode; they're tucked away.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh how did you know..... darn well the cats out of the bag lol
    as for bulking up the Dino legs i figured something out and i personally think it works and looks good :) 
    i am doing the work on it but i wont post it untill i get a my Animated Megastorm up then after will i post Gigastorm after.

    But by the sounds of it some of you guys think the TFA Legends Bumblebee is a bit too big to it into gigastorms chest.
    i dont want to use Minicons just because it wont look....."right"...i mean i dont own any Legends figures but iv seen them.
    i just wish someone could just show me and provide me a pic.
