    May have been done before, but here's my take on the way I choose to display my HA Leadfoot. You can transform this guy in so many different configurations and that in itself makes you like him more and more. Grows on you like a fungus. Well, here he is mistransformed/not movie-accurate and with gundam hands.

    That's mostly how I have mine transformed, just not the front end. Man, is there anything that that OP gun does not look good on?

    I actually did a small hole on the back windshield the size of a mechtech port so that I could have Steeljaw be on top in weapon mode, Targetmaster style. I also futured the joints to be tighter, and drilled a small hole in the base of the missile for him to hold Steeljaw as a hammer in bot mode.

    Still, I really like the Gundam hands, that gives him a lot more flexibility for tools. Nice!

    Looks kind of like how I have mine. I do like how you have the shoulders. I will try that.

    They're a pair of Zildjian's casted 1/100 Gundam modified hands.
