Currently in my collection there are two figures just sitting there, collecting dust for being redundant. Spares. These figures are a pair of Titans Return deluxes, Hardhead and Misfire, which were originally bought as custom fodder. Unfortunately due to my somewhat fickle nature neither has actually been torn apart and turned into a new figure. I've never really done customs but have been rather eager due to the Titans Return line being such a nicely customizer-friendly line (shame its already over!). Preferably I'd try to aim for some figure which would have a faceplate on Shapeways or some mean of customizing a pre-existing Titans Return faceplate with green stuff.

I do have a few ideas but i'm throwing this one out so people can shoot random ideas at what I could turn these two figures into!

Edit: Another new idea I've had is to make Titans Return figures into larger bodies for the upcoming pretenders Decoy suits, replacing the emblem/matrix backplate with a face.

Beast Machines Tankor and G1 Cyclonus (with a front-mounted hull extension)?

Right, let's see...

Misfire I reckon would make a really, really nice Cyclonus. I'm not sure how you'd do the head is the only thing, but otherwise he'd make for a pretty sweet reinterpretation of him.

Hardhead I have an idea for too. Armada Demolishor! Replace the faceplate (there are Shapeways offerings available), replace the stock cannon with a 4-barreled gun of some kind, repaint, and bam! Not perfect obviously, but it should look good.
