This is actually more like version 1.5 of Chainclaw, as I was originally gonna have his arms mounted on assemblies that slid out sideways from his central torso (I didn't like them being mounted on the side/door plates, it seemed too flimsy in appearance to me). But the idea didn't work out, so I constructed the armatures that the arms are mounted on now instead
This made his shoulders stick out of the cavity a bit in vehicle mode, so I had to add the extra armour to widen him slightly. The missile pods were made out of a knock-off Cutthroat's torso, sliced in half and decorated with a few bits of odd plastic. I chopped up his elbows and rebuilt them properly, also allowing the forearm to rotate just in front of the elbow for more interesting poseability. The upper legs were cut through just below the hip and a rotator added, this really is a simple and incredibly effective way to make a bot look much more dynamic I reckon! He can mount his weapons on the sides of the missile pods, and on the underside of his torso in robot mode thanks to the small holes that his forearms peg into 
His tank-tread chainsaws are mounted on ball-joints, allowing them to be placed pretty much anywhere he needs them The shoulder shields are also mounted on rotators so they can be shifted to accomodate his arms in various poses In future I plan to do a better version of him, with more detail on the upper arms and leaving his internal structure intact (this one can't fire his chest missile as I gutted his insides to make way for the abortive first version of his arm mounts), but for now, what does everyone think?
Love the half-track mod there, and the missile launchers are a great addition too.
), but I can easily draw the mechanism when I get back from work tonight and stick the pics up on here, no problems
