Nah, still **** scared of effing it up. I could use having a better dremel ripoff, so I planning on starting after xmas as should be getting a new dremel. then it's just putting aside enough time when I'm awake enough...
I'm planning on the head mod ThunderThruster did - the instructions are here:
http://forums.tformers.com/talk/index.php?showtopic=77181It looks pretty cool and it's a hell of a lot cheaper than the Fansproject kit.
If I get that other KO pistol then I'll be stracthbuilding a bazooka from an old pen and I might try and find some racing transfers to add to him.

The other possibility is similar in that it's saving the back of the head but I'd be using a junker G1 cliffy head as the front. That'd need a lot of work on checking proportions though.

Cool, I wondered where that guide had come from. Really need to get round to doing that.

Thought I'd throw this question to the good ODB folk ('cos we're smarter and more attractive than all those dashed colonials): should there be a thread or subforum purely for people to bitch about repaints? It strikes me that this would free up almost every other thread in the TF Toys Forum for actually discussing the toys. :|

theres always gonna be repaints and im some case's its gud e.g sideswipe (obv a good head mod would help the repaint sell)

the internets purely here so people can bitch about ****, that they'd never say in real life, so yeh there should be a thread, at least that way if they bitch in normal threads they, can be warned/told off (not like that does anything)

Did we already know that Woolworth's had buy two get one free on all toys?

Just back from a bricks and mortar run around Middlesborough. Picked up Deep Space Starscream, Blaster, Heavy Load and the Minicon 12 pack for a grand total of £41.50ish of which only £20 is coming out of my pocket (cheers mother). I've only got Blaster to mess around with for the meanwhile though as the rest is being put away for zmas.

Woolies was pretty well stocked. Uni voyagers at £14 (although still marked at full price on the shelf tags), Minicons marked down to £17.50, Roll Out Op marked down to £25 (was almost tempted... almost) plus the Brawl/Jazz/Proto Prime three pack at around £17 as well as a few deluxes and Bumper Battlers that looked to be full price.

TRU had pretty much what you'd expect and no reductions. Still quite a bit of stock on the movie line exclusives so I might still be able to pick up the Cyb Jetfire repaint next time there's an offer on.

Nice haul waaarghlord!

Quick question: Anyone seen Animated Activators Optimus Prime in bricks & mortar?

On closer looking I'm hoping Valkfan is still making CJ heads coz I'm probably just gonna buy one.

I've only seen the first wave of Activators so far but I've not been looking all that hard just recently. Don't think there's been any reports of newer ones being sighted but I might have missed something.
