    I've been making some mockups of the combiner head, but I'm not sure I like the direction I took. Looks too much like a welders helmet with diving glasses IMO. It has flip up goggles with creepy bug eyes underneath, but I'm not sure it even needs it as right now flipping it up serves no real purpose other than to make the face look less like a face in gun mode. If you can't tell those are supposed to be big teeth on the sides of the mouth plate.

    It doubles as a rocket/gun pod, which I do like.

    Any ideas to make it look better? Maybe it will look better in different colors, I'm thinking blue head with red goggles.

    The design itself indeed does look odd. Try making more compact goggles and maybe change the "big teeth" to a different design seeing as how they just look like triangles.

    I slimmed the goggles, but I made more teeth. Changed and added a bunch of stuff. I think it's an improvement but not quite there yet.

    I dunno, I may scratch it altogether and start new. Making a head that has to cover another head AND serve a secondary purpose is tougher than it sounds. It just doesn't match the style of the combiner IMO.
