    An excellent custom, and especially well-timed with RiD turning 10. :D  Any plans for making more of the RiD bots?

    Yes I plan to do some more of the Autobots and maybe the predacons. The decepticons were just repaints of older toys, so I doubt I'll do them. But the Preds as vehicles is a thought.

    You know, when I first saw this I thought the mold still was too Lugnut-ish, it just didn't scream Skybyte to me. But the more I look at it, the more I realize how awesome this is! You've seriously done a great job on this! And the headsculpt is perfect!

    You have this way of putting out things that are no-brainers that Hasbro should have released. This is fantastic, but you knew i felt that way. :)

    Good job. THe work is great. I just don't really feel like that mold suits him very well, though I understand the logic behind it. Still, great job.

    The more I look at him the more I not only love it! but feel It should be a sea plane (being he WAS a shark) and the easiest way of doing that is to have a pair of pontoons clip inder his wings (the 5mm pegs look like a good spot) and have them double as blasters... just an idea ..think about it.
