From TheDevastator:
The trickiest part of this custom was figuring out how to keep his "backpack" from interfering with his poseability. Eventually I just clipped the spring down a bit and loosened the screw that holds the backpack on.
In the show, Vortex's arm guns were mounted in the same place as they were on the toy, but they were a heck of a lot smaller and were blue. I don't think they were ever used to fire. In addition to his wrist guns, he also had two guns mounted near his shoulders that were gray. I decided that the guns should just be mounted on his shoulders with the top half painted gray and the barrels painted blue.
Vortex comes with a modified 3" Titanium Starscream. He's super-poseable with show-accurate colors! This was meant to be more of an accessory for Bruticus, but in my fictional toy universe he'd be packaged with Vortex.
