- Weapon: Double Barreled Multi-Purpose Launcher
So a while ago I was trying to find a fix for ratchet's horrible DotM voyager hands. To an extent that has been almost resolved (No really, it's probably going to be FoC shockwave's hands with a bit of modding to shorten the wrist mounts.) Anyway, somewhere along the way I was fooling with the idea to snag heinlad's visor since it was night ops ratchet. Then I decided why just go with the visor? The project is now going to be Autobot(?) Heinlad. Anyway, I have a few design decisions to make, and I need some opinions/help.
-Clock or no Clock?: Heinlad's clock is probably his most iconic feature, but I can't find a way to properly implement it into the figure. At best, I would have to mold the clock out of something and mount it on the hood, at worst, I can incorporate a watch or something on his forearm.
-Brown, or no brown?: Heinlad in Beast Wars Neo transformed into a reddish brown and black tanuki, but his robotic part colors were blue white and yellow. If I stuck with the brown and black, it would probably end up Brown Black and Blue with some yellow lights due to how much of the figure is solidly vehicle.
Autobot or Maximal?: It's not transtech, and there aren't really many vehicular maximals outside transtech that I know of, so who does Heinlad currently owe allegiance to? The maximals? Or does the master of time and space have him working elsewise, with the Autobots? Also, where can I get a faction stencil or dry/wet transfer decals for said faction?
