I was wondering about the wings for the TFCC Run Bros and so got out my Wheeljack and Tracks to see if I could come up with a decent way of hiding them without removing them.

The best I came up with was this.

Wheeljack has one way and Tracks another.

Essentially hiding them behind the arms. Tracks ended up with theback of the car a bit higher, but I thought this ok, as the originals have a cap of sorts anyway, however it doesn't clip in very well at all. I guess hiding the doors behind the arms is a bit of a homage, as the doors and side panels make the arms of the G1s as well.

Thoughts? Comments? Other ideas? I am most eager to find a way to hide the wings.

I have seen another way where the doors are folded diagonally across the back and then the weapons have been clipped onto the backpack pointed down to go between the doors and the back of the bot.

The shoulder mounted weapons don't bother me that much as that's how the G1 figures held them. I usually stash the wrenches for WJ anyway.

I used Tracks' wing configuration for my custom omnibot Camshaft, which was made from a Wheeljack.

Aaaah, cool thanks guys. Still not entirely satisfied with even that video, but it's pretty close. I think I will wait and see how it looks once I have him in hand.
