Motto: "Nobody has to look for trouble."

Weapon: Reciprocating Laser Cannon

I've recently noticed that the Ridemakerz line of model cars that you assemble out of various parts that you can mix/match includes two different sets of rocket/jet thrusters:

They look like they might scale nicely with Leader figs, such as Starscream. They also have some big exhaust pipe and hood scoop sets, FWIW.

I also noticed that the Zhu Zhu Pets subline, Kung Zhu, has these armored tank things that have various large weapons attached. They were clearanced at TRU, buy 1 get 2 free, so I bought 3 of these:

The big gatlings rotate via the wheel underneath. The whole black gatling module can be removed from the tank via a few screws, I'm going to try to turn them into TF weapons. They are pretty oversized and lack detail, but it's worth a shot. The top cannon also comes off easily, FWIW.
