Sweet! Sideswipe looks even more amazing! I hope you find that Alt head for him. If I had one I would be all about giving it to you.

Very kind of you and thanks! Hopefully sourced one, should find out later

I had decided that after Mirage and Shockwave that I'd be done with customising and just wait for third parties to fill in the gaps but I've just stumbled across a 1/32 Porsche 924 shell.......so now I need another CHUG Bumblebee so I can do Cliffjumper!

Will it ever end??

LoL At least it keeps you busy. I wish I was able to do customs. But I would just muck up any figure I came in contact with. But it looks like it's a lot of fun.

And thanks for the friend request!

Have to comment on this. I am with you on robot mode display! I only have a few that stay in car mode right now due to either space issues, duplicates (I have a Classics and Henkei Sideswipe and Sunstreaker so one bot one car) Or i really don't like the robot mode like his the 03 bot con Sideswipe and Sunstreakers.... but they're the twins so I had to have them lol

I don't do it for fun! lol tbh, for me at least, the satisfaction is near the end when it all comes together. I hate the actual process and the amount of time it takes but if I want the figures at the sizes I want I'm gonna be waiting forever for an offical HasTak release and probably slightly less as long from a third party.

It'd be rude not too! Don't get me wrong I can totally get why ppl like to fiddle with their figures and display in their alt modes....after all that's the main gimmick but for me it's the character and all the character is in the robot imo. To be brutally honest, if I wanted a shelf full of 80's cars I wouldn't be buying TF'ers, I'd be getting the diecast finished articles.......which gives me all kinds of ideas.......not until I has a mancave tho!!

There's a guy in the radicons that does leg extenders and arm adapters that lift his forearms treads up to their G1 position. Makes him taller and wider....I am planning on getting them and when they are painted and installed I'll up pics

lol thanks......I think!

He was always one of my fave Autobots so I'm glad he turned out so well.

Decided to paint Soundwave's chest to be 'toon accurate. Also painted Thundercracker's thighs:
