    Just curious, has anyone designed treaded risers for either MP-27 Ironhide's (or MP-30 Ratchet's) "battle platforms"?

    I'd love to lift the platforms about an inch and a half, to two inches, but have no idea where to start. I look at the platforms and only see that episode with Ratchet's having treads under it like his G1 toy.

    Hoping someone might be able to point me in the direction of where to find some small treads to help add some height to the platforms.

    There are plenty of toys that have tank treads you could bash for this. I'd recommend not just thinking in terms of "Transformers" as well.

    Oh I realize that, just my problem is my lack of toy department options. I can't simply run into a nearby store and look over "parts candidates". Any ideas on toylines that fit the size options?
