    Sooner than expected.
    I paid attention during the film and dark blue is accurate, the toy isn't far off. So here's this guy. I'll probably do a black one anyway.

    Hasbro should've used this mould to make the Triple changer version of Drift. Anyway, nice job!!

    After seeing Drift turn into a helicopter in the movie I instantly wanted a toy that did that. With Springer being the closest thing to it, this custom had to happen, and you sure did it well!

    It works as Drift, but given the opportunity to pick it up in store I would not buy it. The character did nothing for me. And he did even less in the film.

    Very nice. Makes you wonder why Hasbro went with the mold they did and not this one.

    That's awesome sauce alright. I'll bet that the front end could be modded to look even more like the Bugatti front end too. I wonder if the pauldron's could be made to come down over the outside of the shoulder too? Probably not. Regardless, even as it is, it works amazingly.

    Can't see this being one-upped until folks get the AoE Voyager Drift and give this repaint a go with that figure's Head and Swords.

    Even more insane would be if someone can reshell the car to use Bugatti Veyron shell parts... if that's even remotely feasible.

    Whoa! This mold works so much better for Drift than his AOE one.

    I kinda figured sooner or later someone would make a triple-changer Drift using the Generations Springer mold. That was cool that Drift was a triple-changer in AOE..but using the DOTM Skyhammer mold would not work as a triple-changer.
