Making a new thread for these since the "famous alternator mods" thread is composed almost entirely of dead links now

I'll repaint these two sooner or later, but here they are with just the mods. I made the hood detachable so it can be used as a shield, slightly modified the backpack so it can be closed over the arms as a new chest, and altered the ankles slightly so that the robot can stand with its legs rotated around and actually have knees.

Basically, these mods eliminate most of the kibble and increase the articulation. They don't alter the vehicle modes at all.

It's pretty simple for Sideswipe. There's a notch that keeps the trunk from folding up. Just cut that out.

It's more complicated for Sunstreaker since you need to remove a large piece of yellow plastic that sits under the rear window, and also cut off and remount the window on the front, but it's the same idea.
