    I posted the WiP thread for this last week (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/744347-wip-topspin.html).

    Summary of parts used:
    G1 Topspin - Head, chest, crotch, forks on back
    WfC Megatron - base figure
    WfC Cliffjumper - forearm skeleton, elbows, hands, tops of shoulder detail
    Cybertron Skyblast - forearms, wings on arms
    I used styrene to fill out certain parts - upper arms, backpack and knees.
    Paints used were Citadel Acrylics

    Overall I'm really quite happy with how this turned out. I wish I'd finished him sooner and not left him sat on my self incomplete. In completing this and finally getting him displayed, it has made me want to take another stab at Twin Twist.

    That looks legit. I really like how this uses the original mold and just updates it.
