    I bought this a while back on ebay and when I first saw it I knew I wanted it to bash it into Jetfire. So I just switched out the heads of Jetfire Classics with white Starscream head and added a ball joint. Also added some Repolabels decals and I was done.

    That head fits really well on there.

    Great paint work too.

    Great idea. Took some real bals to kitbash a Botcon Exclusive. Not many would do that. I'll be kitbashing this very mold later this year/early next year. Hopefully it isn't too hard to replace his head with the one I plan to.

    Not trying to be a downer in the thread, but he didn't actually paint anything (as far as I can see anyways). Although if I hadn't already known they were added, I would have said the decals looked like they were already there.

    The head was a little complicated to replace I ended up breaking the tab on the bottom during removal but I think it is still usable if I have plans to reuse it elsewhere.

    That's good. I've done some head mods before, so I think it shouldn't be too hard. Just as long as I keep from destroying either of the heads, I should be fine.

    Opps, that'll teach me for not thoroughly reading. I'm also unfamiliar with this mold or any/all exclusives.

    Cool mod man. The head looks a bit small but it works
