NEED HELP!!!!!!! I have got to know, have any of you ever made a kitbash for the original G1 Ironhide and Rachet molds? What I am looking for is someone who can build a chestback, head, and shoulders to fit into the open "chair" area behind the windshield on the orignial mold so it looks G1 acurate. I have always hated how the toys never looked like the characters. It doesnt have to tansform with it, I would prefer if it just plugged in and out of the open space. I only want it for display purposes, I have had this idea for awhile and just dont have the skills, materials, or time to be able to design one myself. If anyone out there can make me one each for Ironhide and R…

Hokay... I wanna turn my Smokescreen Alternator white. As in, all of the blue parts changed to white. Should I dye it? Should I paint it? I know how to get the decals off but so far my experiments with bleaching plastic haven't resulted in any color changes... Although it does seem to be okay for removing decals. I can't find any white fabric dye (I'm assuming because bleaching would be the standard method) and yet I imagine paint would chip too easily with all the tightly-arranged connecting points and pivots. I've heard the Krylon Fusion (the sprayt paint that bonds with plastics) doesn't work well on TFs. I want something transformable. Advice? …

I have that itchy paint hand again, and I'm thinking about painting my Masterpiece Starscream. However, at a $100 price tag, I keep going back and forth if I should do it. I think my skills are good enough, but still can't bring myself to go down to the hobby store to pick out the paint. What would you guys do? I would be dissapointed if they came out with a Anime Starscream, after I went through all the trouble of painting mine.

So I'm trying to take apart my spare Alt. Meister to repaint him. Most of his disassembly isn't too much trouble, except the following: A: The pin/nail-thing that holds the black inside of the front doors to the white outside B1 and B2: The 2 pin/nail-things that hold the black inside of the rear doors to the white outsides C: The pin that holds the rear door to the white chassis D: The pin that holds that section beneath the rear doors to the white chassis part Could anyone give me some strategies in plucking those out? For pins A, B1 and B2, I've tried using DLP's solding iron trick and it doesn't seem to work. For pin C, I've tried tapping it out wit…

I was surfing around lookin' on e-bay, and found a swoop up for auction and I found that I am still annoyed by things such as his chest being red when his toon incarnation had a blue chest. It is for this reason I have decided to get all 5 dinobots and repaint them into their cartoon selves. I have a gen2 slag at home I can use, and I figure I can get gen2 Grimlock and Snarls for cheaper than G1 versions, but so far I am having trouble finding cheap Sludges and Swoops. About the best I've found so far is $50 for Sludge and $95 for Swoop, plus shipping and handling. So I have a few questions: 1)Anybody know where I can find a cheaper Sludge and Swoop? 2)I haven…
