Superion's Right Arm....?

Whilst collecting models for my 'Bruticus Bash', i found myself with a spare Harrier Jet that was begging to be messed with. I recently purchased an undersized bootleg of Superion for reference purposes, and spied the wee jump-jet that made up his right arm - and have decided to make a 1/48 scale copy!!

After a bit of sawing and filing, i have the kit in the basic bits I want - the transformation is going to be almost identical to the mini transformer, only much more poseable! I always liked the way the nose and tail of these figures form a 'jet-pack' on the back - it's a very signature look!

I'll post some pics when the parts are assembled a bit better - for now, any input would be appreciated.....actually, does anyone know off hand what this character's name was? The KO called him Aiddecampe, hehe....

Body = Silver bolt
Left Arm = Air Raid
Right Arm = Sky Dive
Left Foot = Slingshot
Right Foot = Fireflight

I Believe is the Figures from the Superion

To add to what Evil Ratbat said,
Body = Silver bolt Concord SST
Left Arm = Air Raid F-15 EAgle
Right Arm = Sky Dive F-16 Falcon
Left Foot = Slingshot Harrier
Right Foot = Fireflight F-4 Phantom

I cant wait to see the completed custom :D

Thanks guys! The KO obviously had the limbs all mixed up - although having said that, i'm pretty sure i've seen other folks on this site use the F-15 and F-16 as the legs - I guess all the parts are interchangeable!

All the limbs are interchangable. That is why the Japanese series was called Scramble City. It doesn’t matter which one becomes an arm or leg. However, the listings of the character anmes and their alt modes, as stated by J.T. Silversmith, is accurate.
