    so this is a WIP thread for a custom Megatronia that I am working on
    so this is to help me bounce around some ideas
    I already ordered a Victorion and is planning to recast the heads and put them on new figures (though not 100% to the unite warriors)

    But the Hotspot mould is going to be the torso

    (how it works however is going to be different)

    Currently thinking of a custom head, since to me I want Megatronia to be distinct

    to anyone in the thread, what is the closest size of model kit to the ariel bot jets

    i think i may need to just ditch the premade body, and just do a scratch build of the jets

    p.s update
    progress so far
    got the legs to look mostly the way I wanted working on the body

    I gave up on the legs after messing around with them and hitting a block also due to load-bearing concerns 20210622_205123[1].jpg

    will need to redo the skirts , because it is off by a few mm

    and it will kill my ocd

    So I just wana mention something that might save you some hassle regarding her head.

    The deluxe class Netflix Elita-1 head would make a perfect "female megatron" head. All you would need to do is remove the horns.
