I thought since KO TFC Neck Breaker should be easy to do, I decided to start last night... The main job is on the bulldozer's blade (the "shovel" piece) and the push frames. The blade-lift cylinders are removed as I am... PURE LAZY... Cut off Version 1's push frames pieces and will add extender pieces with stopper, to be fitted into Version 2's empty frames...
This is the extender piece with stopper, also cut and shaped out from the Version 1's remaining push frames waste... Super glue and hot glue are used for joining...
After assembling, a cover piece from the waste plastics is secured on top... Minor touch ups like thickening the pegs for tighter joints etc are also done...
Also cut off the 2 ball joints on the head as they look ugly on the head...
Here's the gestalt arm mode... looks good... at least to me...
... and the bulldozer mode looks quite decent too, although the blade-lift cylinders are missing...
And the robot mode, with the 1/2 blade as "foot". Will look good if the 1/2 blade part is not so big (i.e. the authentic version one)...
This my preferred way of feet-transform configuration... I also painted the head black to better distinguish it from the green back-piece...
Back of robot mode... The 1/2 blade pieces help to stabilize the robot well...
You have a real cool blog. You inspired me to start a Transformers blog as well: http://anothertransformersblog.blogspot.com/
