    This was the first modded figure I have ever done, and the one responsible for me getting into the kitbashing hobby as hard as I have been.
    He was done somewhere over 18 months ago, and as he's my first, hes a bit rough, but after all, I had to start somewhere ;)

    I also resculpted his right hand.
    UNI Ratchet's right hand was some sort of wierd projectile launcher, which I have always hated.
    There was only one course of action, and that was to resculpt the hand, removing the launch mechanism, and instead replacing it with a 3/16" peg hole, allowing him to hold a vast majority of the Transformer weapons out there.

    I tried to be light with the pics, with a larger gallery of them being shown here:
