    Nope, sorry. Either they're already in use or have been bought for future use. (Unless you'd want the Star Saber, but I have no idea where I left those.)

    Does anyone have a masterpiece prowl they can check to see how the shoulder cannons (the chrome ones) look on the Subaru alternators?

    there were 2 types of sets both called 'binaltech arming'

    one set was ain a multicolor box with a single launcher, a star saber sword and a set of lightsabers
    1 x gray launcher with silver star saber (+lightsabers) or 1 x black launcher with gold star saber (+lightsabers)

    008.jpg 009.jpg 012.jpg 013.jpg

    the second type had a monochrone box in either gold or silver with two launchers and a star saber sword - no lightsabers
    gold star saber with 2 x black launchers or silver star saber with 2 x gray launchers.

    these seem to be less well known but more desirable as you can dual-equip a character one pack without ending up with 2 star sabers and 6 lightsabers

    I'd love to share some pics of my Hound and Sideswipe figures on my work desk, but they've been stuck in a closed building for the last 9 weeks.:( 
    Hang in there guys...

    Oh, that's nice!

    He was creating a custom for the Classics line. He wasn't making an Alternators custom.

    Well, over a decade and all it took was a global pandemic, but I finally got around to doing the tfmaster leg mod on this guy. I still bet it was the original designer's idea to make them like this. Probably failed a safety test or something.

    Now I just have to decide Hoist or Trailbreaker.

    And as far as thunderwing goes, yes I remember the classic from Megatron version he did. Just thought he also used the head on an alternator. It's been a long time; I could be wrong. IMG_20200517_224110.jpg

    Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner :lolol 

    I can just hear people screaming "Pay your talent Lee!", just like it was yesterday.

    But enough about that ass-clown, bring on the Alternator pics!

    Yeah, the leg mod always works well when it's done. Nice work! :) 

    Nah, he didn't make an Alt version that I remember. He did kitbash a lot of parts to make whatever it was he wanted at the time (as many of us do/did).
