Tweaked the legends Pipes so he's not just a "blue Optimus" as one of my kids called him.
The hood idea came from the TFW 2005 radicons boards. I used the handle from a cybertron Blaster gun, which fit into the back of Pipes' head and had a hole in it already for the pin.
The pipes are from a robot heroes Optimus. They're on a screw so they can be rotated in vehicle and bot mode.
The mouthplate was cut from a piece of toothpaste tube that was already blue (phew). Cutting it to fit was a pain.
I might do the same to Huffer later.

Nice work, I already thought this mould made a better Pipes than Prime from seeing it in pack in the store. Now you've really locked it in.

Truck mode is pretty good but that robot mode is absolutely brilliant! Well done!
