    Last year I made a Chug take on junior headmasters Minerva using the Minerva Titan master from the God Ginrai set, now I've used the Cab titan master to do my take on a Chug Cab. The base figure is that of CW hotspot, modifications are a redesigned bucket at the end of the ladder, the head area cut away to allow for the new 3D printer head cover thing (can't remember it's name), a new 3D printed head joint what allows the use of a Titan master and a new 3D printed chest to give it more of a Cab look, all the 3D parts are from shapeways.

    Now I know he's to tall for cab since he is meant to be the same size as both Minerva and Go-shooter but it's not my fault Hasbro don't make deluxe fire engines haha.

    Thoughts?

    Nicely done! I currently have Energon Inferno standing in for Hosehead, since he's the only "deluxe" fire truck I knew of.

    I didn't even remember this character. Maybe if he'd been given such a good treatment back in the day, I would have!

    Awesome work!!. Hosehead and Nightbeat were two of my favourite characters from G1. I may have to hunt down a POTP Inferno now.

    That’s great. Love the tires on the new chest plate.
