    I think the upcoming Rook figure would make for a better Roller.

    I think a breakdown into wildrider and a firefly to slingshot conversion kit would be good

    How about all new front end sections for all four cars that pull off to become the hands and feet? Those are huge pieces that get used for nothing in robot or combined mode.

    The forearms aren't pinned, you just unscrew the forearms.

    This looks promising and I'm eagerly waiting on your trailer hand feet idea for Motormaster/Menasor, do you already have something drawn or so, can't wait to see this. I had the same idea but shapeways was too expensive.
    And with this I'm subscribed to the thread!

    (PS: I'm buying a 3D printer if you want cheaper test prints of your stuff, the bigger stuff, heads will not be good I think, will try of course, you can always give me a ring (email or PM :p  ). Since shapeways can be expensive and FDM printed test shots for seeing if it fits or so are always good for a test ofcourse. I'll pm you a pic of something printed when the printer arrives.)

    I would order 1 and 2 for Megatron.

    Suggestion: maybe a replacement head in G2 style. The D:< kind of mouth that most of them had in the comics.

    Could you make a new head for prime that splits in half and the two halves flip down on the shoulders so that section still rotates around to hide the head?

    I think that Jerrymiru is spot on with the seekers idea. I would love to see it.

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/1023621-combiner-wars-head-project-wip-shapeways.html

    Conversion kit is funny but need lot of research work, may finish up all the add-on stuff first.

    Need to study...Rook to be a roller, won't it be a bit large?


    haha, you got me. Yeah, no love on RobotsInDisquise. btw i m designing an axe for idw Chromia, let see i could redesign the details & fit for CW Prime.


    Cool if it is the only hands, however to make the whole forearm will be too expensive. sorry to disappoint you.


    Let s see if i would make a Powermaster head & try this method. but, wouldn't he look like slice in half by some Decepticons?

    Cool idea, could be attach on arm in separate robot mode. wrote down. :wink: 


    i dunno if this would help you to solve the problem:
    http://static.seibertron.com/images/toys/uploads/1424559215_m9.jpg

    Just little change of the transform method would a bit correct his scale problem.

    As "Boldform" working with their Motormaster & add-ons, i might keep on my style of feet project first.

    i m not G1 freak, so every single head design for Stunticons or Airielbots? Not my cup of tea also.

    Thx for your concern & support. Though i hope to use your help, i lived far from US. Anyway, still feel sweet & please let me see what your 3D printer looks like.

    Stay tune. :cool:

    I live far from the US as well, don't know where you are from but I'm from Belgium and prints are small and not heavy so shipping of stuff is like nothing.

    I was thinking about a piece that can connect Classics Scourge to Galvatronus's back. Same idea for Classics Cyclonus. Another crazy idea I has was to have Classics Cyclonus connect to Galvatronus's arm to play off the Arm Cannon trait that Meg/Galvatron are known for.

    Also I thought of an idea to make the orange cannon to replace the long cannon to Suprion's gun for Galvatronus.

    OK, pm me & let s talk about it that time. :D 

    If there is V Optimus to form combiner, i think there will be that size of Megatron/Galvatron to form with combiners. Should we wait for it?

    Crazy idea I had: connectors to combine CW Prime with Energon Wing Saber. I always liked his limb modes despite their lack of poseability, and they'd look pretty cool attached to the new one. I've seen some Energon-to-PCC connectors so that might be a place to start.
