    Whoo boy! I've been feeling creative lately. Now that Commander Yanmark is done, I can start on Turbo Man from Mega Man 7.

    This Mirage isn't as sleek as I'd like, and lacks features that makes Turbo Man, Turbo Man, but he'll hafta do.

    Hmm. Where to start?

    So I started with the Parakeet on the wrists, back and tops of the feet.

    Added red to the eyes and I'll hafta go over them again. The toothpick didn't work well. I added black for the "visor" which will hafta be tidied up, as well as black to the thighs and upper arms.

    Definitely Interested to see how this will turn out, I would personally suggest a head swap because Mirage's head just doesn't work for Turboman. Maybe Flywheels?

    I agree with you on a headswap, but I've never seen Flywheels in my area.

    I'm not sure about which head I would use. Maybe -Generations Deluxe Warpath or SIEGE Crosshairs. Or R.I.D.Windblade with the mouthguard.

    @Maximus Danz I'm not even sure how to remove his head? It doesn't seem to want to come off and I don't want to break him.

    Siege heads are weird, if they don't have a screw (which he doesn't) You have to pull and wiggle a bit. I had to do it once with an Optimus.
    Also, I agree with @Lunatic Prime Crosshairs would probably work.

    Thanks Maximus. And no, Mirage doesn't have a screw. Can you pop it back on if it doesn't work?

    That doesn't exactly inspire confidence. And it might be my problem. I'm a bonafide klutz. :confused:
