    I picked up both Nitro and Cyberfire BB in Family Dollar the other day ($5 each, can't beat that). Anyway, I am pretty frustrated about Nitro Bee's inability to hold MechTech weapons in his hands and the lack of a forward elbow joint. If I bought another Cyberfire/regular Bee, could I switch the arms around? Or would that affect transformation (the main reason I got Nitro in the first place was because of his alt mode).

    But Cyberfire's hands flip in, making the arm length shorter. I wonder... it just might work.

    youd probably have to cut the yellow bits off the Cyberfires arms to make it fit

    edit: yea youd have to modify the arms and remove the yellow bits on the side of Cyberfires arms, and the sockets would need to be messed with as well as Cyberfires cant go flat

    Darn. That's a bit disappointing. I'm not the type to go cutting up my TFs. If I could find a tutorial, though, I might do it.
