I was working on this before I got carried away with Predaking.
I took inspiration from MP Grimlock's raised shoulders coz I thought it looked pretty tough.
The head has been moved forward onto the Gold chest torso, since it looked terrible so far back.
Transformation is the same except the head needs to be tilted as to not get in the way.
Everything on it is meant to look pretty stock just with articulation.
Still requires work, filling and painting. WIP.
Will post more pics when it's complete :)

Wow... you actually took apart a vintage toy to make a custom!
Not that there's anything wrong with doing that, but it's not something you see every day. :o

Haha, all good. This one is not authentic, it's one of those KO when they first got reissued years back, and the QC was terrible. So bad it couldn't stand up. It was due for some surgery for a long time, finally booked him in :)
They look 100% the same except for the QC and bad paint job on the crotch area. Everything else including the chrome look great !!!
