    Think of the children. Please post NSFW when posting these kinds of perverted pictures. Not everyone wants to see how little Sky Lynx are made. o_O

    I'm getting him still, but I'm really hoping for a 3rd party upgrade kit to completely replace the front turret assembly into something much better (and also capable of working as the shoulder cannon).

    Yeah, the head is easily removed. At least on the Siege version, the easiest way to do so is to grab the front of the neck assembly part with one hand and then with the other hand grab the head and push it forward.

    It takes a little bit of force, but it's easily doable.

    It's freaking epic! definitely a big fan of the type of creativity that is coming out of this new modulator system! We are really getting to see things that have never been done before!

    Huh. I can't see how it would work. That looks like it'd be easier to do with the gas station one.
    The ramps for Airwave don't touch the ground.

    Yeah - it was cool to have cybertronian versions, but the ER molds are where it's at.

    Not sure what you're asking for? Airwave's more of an aircraft carrier/roadway than a fire station.

    I can't get a good configuration to match the G1 version without using extra parts. It's mainly due to the ramps not touching the ground because of the treads, and lining stuff up to form boxes on top.
    Sorry.

    Question: Are the modulators any good as weaponizers for other figures?

    I mostly see folks using them as bases- which makes sense. But I’m not interested in that.

    I initially I was not interested in the Siege weaponizer concept but I love it now. I just don’t want to miss out on another cool gimmick. Thx for your thoughts!
