I've been working on these for a while now, but now I've gotten all my pictures taken, and it's time to share!

Arcee

Testors paint was used to give Arcee a more screen-accurate appearance. I also chopped down her original blaster and added a ball joint. Finally, I added fakebusker83's Blades.

Bulkhead

Again, detailed with Testors. I also disassembled his weapon, which now fits into a hole I drilled into his fist. A C.L. GR is substituting for his blaster.

Bumblebee

No modifications to Bee, just paint.

Cliffjumper

A bit of paint, Reprolabels, and fakebuster's blasters.

Optimus Prime

I did a lot of work on OP. Repainted, Bare Metal Foil used for his vehicle mode chrome, and Reprolabels. I also purchased Fakebuster's blades and smokestacks, Lorddragonmaster's "Celestial Sword", and Dr. Wu's blasters.

Ratchet

I did a little bit of painting on his feet and wheels, everything is Reprolabels

Wheeljack

Repainted his swords, forearms, hands, and thighs. Added Reprolabels and Fakebuster's blasters and grenade.

Wow that's some great work man! Everything looks very top-notch. I am so tempted to get one of those Star Sabers for my FE Prime...

I'm particularly interested in how you drilled the hole in Bulkhead's fist... would it be possible to see some pics of the mace end that plugs into the hole, and the hole itself? What size of drill bit did you use?

Thanks!

The mace:

The fist:

Basically I just took Bulk's weapon apart, then used my Dremel to remove the gray piece the mace attaches to, exposing a 2mm pin. I used a 5/64ths drill bit, then used some filler putty to get the hole sized.
