CF would be rad gamblor!

Failing that, I'd go for the Blue with Silver bonnet. Wouldn't feel right not having him in some sort of 2-tone

I wouldn't say the box art shows a white bonnet. Compare it to the white of the legs and you can see its not the same. It's blueish silver to me like the face and missiles.

...I agree there, so I'd go with the closest choice...

Paulbot makes a very good point.

I'd copy the actual Diaclone colours. You know they work, and you don't have to worry about interpretation.

I'd leave the side mirrors in place. It looks like they'd interfere with the doors flipping out in robot mode if you moved them back .
