    I bought Red Cog just to use him as Delta Magnus’ Powered Buggy/Powerdrive sidekick.

    Get some flame effects and he would be golden.
    And you could have TLK Megatron as Megatronus when he was with the other Primes and have Scourge as when he betrays them and becomes the Fallen.

    Also, with the new Skyquake mold coming out I will use it as his Cybertronian form and have the Prime version as his Earth mode. And same with Dreadwing.

    probably one that's done by a lot of you already but as I just got him recently: Universe Overload as G1 Flak.

    I'm also thinking of at some point getting CW Ironhide or Trailbreaker and changing the head to make a SG Off Road.

    The most I've done is putting a damaged Autobot logo on the Deeseus Army Drone and a knackered Decepticon badge on the Sparkless Bot to make generic Siege background guys. I am not a creative person!

    FOC Roadbuster as Cybertronian Hoist.

    Swap all the heads with the FOC Combaticons and the FOC Wreakers and you got a SG Combaticons and Bruticus. And a SG Wreakers and Ruination.

    Gundam infinity head joints are almost exactly 5mm. This means that you can do as many Lego pop n swaps as you want. You can use them as generic troopers or ocs to your hearts content! PXL_20230113_192615463.jpg

    Looks like a wing zero in different colours but my gundam lore isn't that strong.
