...see what I did there?
I wasn't happy with the original figure's clown shoes so dug around in my parts box for some replacements.
Turns out G1 seeker feet can slot right in the combiner port!
If you don't have a spare G1 seeker, the feet from the Universe/Classic mold can also fit.
It does make it a parts-former but it makes for a much more streamlined figure.

wow, old meets new! I don't have the figure, but I'll be opening an elita one at some point. I'm going to inspect.
Elita One's feet are more streamlined than Starscream's - I think you may like them as is.
BTW I transplanted the stickers from Starscream's original feet on to these new ones.
Wow, that custom modification is no mean feet. You could say Starscream is putting his best foot forward.
Personally, I am glad Snaketales’ creativity is not taking a backwards step.Quote:

Can't tip-toe around the fact the original oversized feet stunk. Points to you for making this figure so much better that I'm almost soled on getting him.

Guh, these puns are sole-crushing.
Do the new feet work just as well in jet and gestalt torso modes?
And you know what they say about bots with small feet.
They leave small footprints.
Looks way better, well done
Though now he's no longer putting on the riiiiiiiittttzzz!!!
Smaller socks tooQuote:

I don't like the torso mode and haven't tried it but I doubt they could be integrated. The feet use the combiner ports to stay on, which are used in gestalt mode by the limbs.

Was experimenting while working on another project and you can jam the feet inbetween the legs and shin guards on the torso's back.
In this example I used a universe Seeker's feet, but I reckon G1 feet would fit too.
