Hey Community!!

Along with the Ultra Magnus Upgrade/Accessory kit (Check out my other Topic post) I am designing a minor accessory kit for Siege Prowl. The figure itself, in my eyes, is damn well amazing and there is nothing to improve upon but he does lack in weapons, mainly his missing shoulder cannons and that twig that comes with him.

Currently i am designing his shoulder cannons but would love some input of what you would like to see!!
I'm drawn between either giving him large traditional rocket/laser cannons to compliment the G1 and IDW aspects the Siege was based upon but it would clash with the sleek car design

OR

Give him smaller machine guns in pursuit to fit the size and build of the figure as well as the sleek car design.

OR

Both??
Let me know what you think/ want

Any and all feedback always appreciated!!

Many thanks,
SD

I’m not a prowl owner, but maybe try the narrower design? It would be a little more consistent with Smokescreen’s small/tall shoulder guns, and helps balance out the larger, smoother shapes of his upper body.

He's small and sleek and I love transforming him. He is aesthetically one of the most pleasing bots in the line but I totally have been hung up on the lacking shoulder weaponry. Although I think narrow barreled lasers or guns would be neat (and if he'd already come with them I'd have 0 complaints) but really with his smooth curves I think a more subtle rocket design would look great. Something aiming slightly upwards like at a 30 degree angle. I think of how Hound has his shoulder rocket with the option to put a missile cap in the barrel. I don't know if he'd have the clearance for something quite that big but my gut just tells me rockets. I removed the shoulder rockets from my Generations Prowl since he's broken anyways just to see if the colors matched and the size would work for something I could modify but the peg holes are very uniquely sized and the whites were off. The size wasn't too bad though and the rockets looked pretty cool. It'd also be more G1 I think and that's kind of the push of the line. All this is just opinion - I think it's super cool you're working on this. Good luck!
