DON'T LOSE YOUR HEAD! Part Swapping is FUN!

:BOT: DON'T LOSE YOUR HEAD! Part Swapping is FUN! :CON:

;)

Here in the United Kingdom we love a bit of Part Swapping and have done for years in the hidden farm roads of the North to the back streets in the South.
Whenever we get the chance we've been taking our parts and screwing them into other figures, making a beast with two backs or just getting a little head!

Feel free to show your own parts off in this thread. Your photos and accompanying stories are always appreciated.

I once tried to put Gen. Goldfire's head on JP Gen Gold Bumbleebee (same mould, or so I thought.)

That head is now broken.

Megs

Just dug this fella out from the back of a shelf. Not a bad old kit actually, made a fairly good representation of a G1 style Megatron with a couple of parts from a Classics Voyager Megs!

That's the Marvel Crossovers Hulk figure from a few years ago. He turns into a big green tank! ;)

Well Ive just found that the DotM Human Alliance Basic Half-Track has the same size ball joint as Universe/Classics Mirage which mankes for a very easy head swap!

Some claim to have heard tales of those that use Megabolt Megatron as a head for Fortress Maximus... Insanity some said... Or perhaps twas genius said others... Maybe the truth lay somewhere between.

Some have also placed 2007 Movie Bumblebee weirdly folded, as a Fort Max head...

Okay, I want to see this. I've heard of Megabolt Megatron but never Bumblebee doing this.
Shhhhhhh... I was never here. You never got anything from me.
