    I always thought CW Rook had a pretty passable scifi truck mode if you left his backpack up as in his combiner arm mode. All it really needed was a "windshield". So I finally made one!

    There's two parts here. One is the windshield part, which should fit reasonably snugly into the space. It can stay in place in robot mode, but needs to be removed if you want to put him in his original altmode.

    The other piece is an insert to fill in the gap in his leg area, with a peghole to let it work as a trailer hitch for something like Earthrise Optimus' trailer. It is a snug enough fit if the legs are pressed tight together, but must be removed for robot mode. It has a peg on one side so it can be slotted in to one of Rook's shoulder pegholes or wherever you prefer.

    I printed in clear PLA, but silver for the windshield and white for the hitch might have been better.
