    Thanks for the offer mate..but i'll keep my classics ramjet and try to pick up a henkei ramjet elsewhere...

    Btw, i'm interested to know how you are planning on making dirge? surely its more involved than just a straight repaint right? as dirge has extra small wing pieces at the top...
    Will you use styrene sheets or off-cuts etc?

    My advice is to do a small mod to Dirge. Cut the fins off and glue them to the top part of the wing.


    After all the coneheads aren't meant to be repaints!!

    Rampagess, I like your idea of the Dirge and Thrust. Never thought of it that way. I think its looking great.

    Ok well an update on thrust. His wings are now attached and working just like the other seekers. Just have to adjust them in alt mode to bring them closer to the body of the jet.







    The wings were attached by clueing small circular plastic rods on the ends so they still fit in the original holes. But the holes had to be opened up slightly.



    Should be in paint some time soon as with dirge

    No updates on Unicron yet

    That's quite a nice mod. G1 Thrust wings are probably a touch too big but the proportions are not too bad.

    This may sound like a really dumb question to you lot but i've always been curious -
    how do you make such neat cuts to your plastics?
