I have had the Classics Thunderwing for a while now and although the mould is fairly basic something has always bugged me.

As I was flicking through some of my old TF comics I realised that he should have a Cyclone cannon (well at least in the comics).

So Set about designing one.

I split it into two halves to stow underwing in jet mode.

Somehow I managed to order in both the white strong & flexible and also metallic plastic (which is a massively better material in my opinion, as all the detail comes out much better)

I am working on a scaled down version, as I feel the gun overwhelms ol' Thunderwing, so making maybe 2/3 of the original size would look better.

This is my first go at this so would love to have some feedback.

I can't seem to upload the pics I took as they are too big so I have put them onto the Shapeways site.

Thanks for looking

Looks awesome. As a fan of Marvel comics Thunderwing this appeal to me greatly. I just wish he had been a Voyager figure rather than a Deluxe (should be a rule about no Deluxes for any character that has been a major leader of a faction unless they already have received a Voyager or Leader Class figure.)
