    been working on a custom FOC style jet optimus lately, he is a combined version of optimus and jetfire with optimus being the FOC figure and jetfire made from generations dreadwing.

    he is going to be part of a set of figures i plan to make based on there arival to earth after the events of FOC.

    although not pianted in this picture, the optimus is already all painted up but i was wondering if i should do jetfire the classic white or go with movie black, what do you guys think?

    Thanks guys, I like the sound of doing him like armada jetfire, the design of the figure and its transformation would work great, energon wing saber would be good too but I think the colours would clash too much with prime?

    Don't have to do him exactly wing saber colors, just the style would be great IMO with matching op colors. I mean both of them were basically flying wings after all.

    I'd like to see some more pics of how you came up with this combo.

    Hmm yhh I guess clash isn't the right word, I think with them being the same color it would look odd and be too hard to differentiate the two, if that makes sense?
