    i always wanted a Galaxy Shuttle, but didn’t want to spend the money on one (even the KO version). I picked up an incomplete Energon Jet Fire at a Con and did some mods to it (I always hated the head). With an easy paint job to a titans master and a quick beheading and drilling a new hole, I have a Galaxy Shuttle I can be happy with. I added a front landing wheel with LEGO and added a lego seat inside the cockpit (got rid of a piece in there that wasn’t needed).

    That's Armada Jetfire you used. Not Energon.

    I always knew that Octone mold has an Astrotrain potential. I really wondered why they made a new one and gave us that ridiculous space choo-choo that we got from Titans Return. Interesting mod on the Galaxy Shuttle.

    Oddly enough, Armada Jetfire’s transformation scheme has a few similarities to Galaxy Shuttle.

    LOVE IT. Big fan of modding regular TFs to be TitanMaster compatible. I might do this too.

    It was designed that way on purpose.

    Always here for giving TM compatibility to older molds. I've been working on retrofitting some Cybertron-era figs.

    I have to say I truly can't stand most of the Armada figures.... However, this is a really good use of a clunky figure. So much so, that I want to do this myself. Very fine idea and execution. (I also am looking to re-create many of the Japanese Transformers characters)Thanks for the inspiration. Thanks for sharing!
