That's it exactly... didn't want Hoist to be as tall as my Prime, Hun-Grr, and whomever my Nemesis Prime turns out to be.
The head comes from a G1 Hoist junker I bought from BBTS specifically for this custom. Grabbed it on sale for about $9 or so. The visor comes from an Alt. Meister custom that didn't need it (Wildrider, if you're curious). I couldn't figure out a way to attach it permanently without reshaping either the head or the visor, so it's just fitted on with sticky putty and can take it off as necessary. It mixes the toy and cartoon heads neatly that way.
As far as painting the tow rig goes, it's possible - but for the moment, I'm out of orange paint, so it'll have to wait.
