    I've decided, as I guess a lot of folks have, that I have to own a Beast Hunters Optimus after watching "Rebellion." I liked the look of the figure before the episode, but after looking at a few galleries and video reviews, I love the design.

    The only problem is that head...has anyone tried to put an RID Prime head on? Please post pics if so.

    Not without some serious mods, Rid's head is on a ball joint on the neck, BH Prime's head and neck seem to be screwed directly into the body.

    Not without a lot of headaches involved.

    Damn. I guess it would be easier to attempt a facemask...

    I wish. I'd actually consider buying BH Prime if I could easily swap that shitty looking head.

    You can't swap the head very easily as it's glued on but you could just take a small thin piece of bent plastic or really anything and just wedge it in between the vents on his head, which makes it look like he has a face plate.

    Even if it was possible, the rid head looks a little small for the bh body.
