Finally fixed my H.A. Leadfoot today
Posted: Sun Feb 07, 2016 5:51 pmHuman Alliance Leadfoot has NEVER been my favorite figure. Not even my favorite wrecker and probably one of my least favorite TF toys I own. He looks so awful with his gut, and because the god awful skinny shoulder/doors not folding, peg for a torso issue(s). His robot mode looks awful out of the box. So today i said "im sick of looking at you. Im going to fix your issue." So i got out my hot knife and trimmed up some of the door pieces and door...barriers... that were keeping it from moving into the position I believe they should be. So WAHLA, heres my fixed Leadfoot.
It at least makes him displayable and nice looking from a straight on shot. He still looks like a bunch of floating panels around a stick body if you look at him from the side though lol. Oh well. Here he is.

Originally it had plastic barriers to keep the door from rotating up or down (think of a lamborghini door). But i shaved them smooth to allow the door to rotate upwards and cover the front shoulder area.
