After coming to the conclusion this dude wont make his pretty little sounds anymore i figured what the hell and go for broke. He wont transform all the way because of the neck mod but i am going to fix that. Little fine tuning and a possible hinging of the fingers and i think we will be done. I have to say i was a little scared to try this as in Canada they werent as readily available. Plus only ever doing Diecast customs i was thinking i couldnt pull it off. But i found it soooo much easier that the stuff i was acustom too. My wife helped me with the detail and after many hours of waiting for paint to dry and second guess her as well as myself here he is...Enjoy!!

Thanks to all that helped and Jin Thanks for all the tips!!!

Hey that's great. How did you do the neck?

Lucky enough i have a huge collectibles toy story right up the road from me and they have all the bit parts i could every want for free. its an arm and shoulder ball joint from an older TF. like i said before it won transform all the way because i posted the post to high up of his neck. I am figuring a little exacto magic will clear that right up.
