Custom TRANS-01 Valkyrie (Arcee)

Ok well like everyone i was dissapointed with the figure, but over a few days came to like it more and more. So i decided to fix the few things i didn't like

Firstly fixed the chest so that it tabs in, went to toys r us and bought a cheap lego set and just super glued small lega onto it, then used Apoxie Sculpt to hold it in place

Than i decided to change her head as it seemed a little to big, i swapped it over for the head that came with my MC Axis Kit Model kit and it looks so much better

That's a great idea to swap the heads over, it looks so much better.
I'm going to steal that idea :D

The smaller head does make a difference. Looks much better.

Its not going to be easy to find the MC Axis Kit as it was made in the 80's and there hard to find now. Mine was a repo one, i bought 2 on ebay from someone who had the original and made 50 casts of it. I think gamblor916 has one maybe he might be able to make a mold and cast one, but im not sure.

Heres the two side by side

As for the lego its the small parts they use for headlight on the lego cars.

Yea it looks much better with the smaller head the original one was just to big

A marked improvement Rampagesss,
She doesn't look like a bobblehead now - much better proportions apart from her thighs. :p:D

Another impeccable example of customising done tight from Rampagesss IMO. :D
