The only issue with that is you need to have one before you cast it. The only bits i'm looking at replicating are the helicopter blades from combiner wars figures and Grooves windshield as the boys keep losing them. Otherwise it's all going to be my work.
Just for reference, with a little bit of clean up (still need to fill and sand some more) with Silverbolt (Couldn't find Optimus, refer to previous comment about boys losing stuff)

Just elcheapo Ucast 65d and pinkysil as a mold. Unfortunately the mold is poorly laid out (lesson learned) and its a bit of a task to demold so it wont make to many copies. Hoping to get it right next time
And yeah. It looks ok on 'bolt. The heads always seem a little small (to assist in transformation ) to me so.
I originally started out to replace cw optimus' head but the existing pin head has very little, almost zero tolerance in transformation.

Update on progress. Have made another casting, less bubbles but 1 big one so cast ruined. Now looking at getting a hotpot and camp stove to start detailing in wax first. Making this a wastemold, stepping up the detail with wax then making a master mold.
Also looking into pressure pots and vacuum chambers but thats going to push the budget.

You wouldn't mind documenting some of your process? It sounds interesting.
