    Neat idea for some modern CHUG scale Conehead Seekers using the RotF Breakaway/Thrust mold.

    This project was stated by one person, sold to another incomplete, who then sold it to me incomplete.

    Just focused on “finishing” what was started. Fixed some breakage, made the feet solid instead of having “toes”, added/removed tail fins, some painting, decals, and plane weapons.

    You can’t have enough seekers. ;)

    Wow...these are great! It meets my criteria as a great custom idea, i.e., making me want a mold that I hated, and used for parts fodder/traded/gave away... dammit! Lol...

    I like how hybrid-ized they look. Unmistakably their characters, but new takes without going too far into “movie” realm. (What Bay *should* have done... ;)  )

    It’s also kinda nice how they transform completely with no parts-forming or removal of any kind, which is not common for a seeker. ;) 

    I wonder what a possible Starscream/Thundercracker/Skywarp would look like...

    Wow, you guys really respect intellectual property! :) 

    Yah you're right! :) 
    I'm not a fan of the mold, with the robot mode mess upstairs with the middle head and horiz-wings.
    But I love how you fixed the lower legs and no parts-forming. Just wish it was no Bay-forming!!! :D
