I was looking at the starscream and thought i wonder if you could kit bash a screamer classics into a Blitzwing. Any ideas would be Welcome on this as It could be done due to the Wing Fold up just means Some Scratch building maybe Needed to be done

Look at this:

If I were to kitbash Blitzwing, I'd buy this KO Kabaya that is near the good size and I'd use his parts combined with another TF to make my own. Or you can buy this kit and use Shockinis joints to make him more posable... At the price the kit sells for, it's worth to try.

I got 3 of them kits: Sideswipe, Blaster and Frenzy/Ravage.
Sideswipe is poor...
Blaster is good.
Frenzy/Ravage...I don't know, I have not assembled them yet.

Plastic quality is cheap. But it can be kitbashed.
Good for parts

Hmmm with a Mod the the Waist area on the Starscream and use the arms this could Work

if you have one of them blitzwings can you give me a size Along to the Seeker For reference because if thats the right Size

A: mae a turning section on the Seeker
b: Use the seekers arms inside the astrotrain
c: paint and would be done

I've been trying to figure that out for a while. Your going to have to figure out a new head transformation if you use SS as a base though. the nose cone get's inthe way in both tank and plane mode.

I thought about the Ways of Doing This And One was to Reverse the Legs in General and theres a Few Other Ways i Thought Up. Either way the Head Part i am working out a Idea on Thats at the Moment Maybe a Cut in the torso So that it Sits in there on the nose Nose Would Work As from what i Can see on the Figure theres no Bar Like the Old Action Masters.

For the Head Dril down the Torso Section i Would Say then it Will Sit inside That Area

Classics Blitzwing needs a new transformation. maybe. well, Starscream's the only one that's stayed so close to the original.

I've got the vaguest of vague ideas how it might be pulled off, but a lot of scratchbuilding would be involved. A new set of folding wings would need to be made, and the tail wings would need to go.
I'm wondering if the missile launchers could be modded to combine into a double-barrelled turret in tank mode; I've no idea what could be done with the treads at the mo.

I checked the Toy for Refernece and to be honest its shorter then the Starscream so maybe if i use the top section instead of both parts will work

Might Ramjet work better as a base? I've just had a mental fiddle (mucking with my SS and imagining it's a Ramjet) and I think it might work. The basic shape's closer to Blitzwing's jet mode anyway, and theoretically the shorter nose should be easier to hide or obscure.

ramraider anywhere other here in the uk selling ramjets that you know of

I don't know anywhere selling 'em; I've haven't seen 'em yet, and I'm keeping an eye out for new stuff in all my local shops. That's why I was imaginating with one of my Screamers...

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Transformers-Classics-Ramjet-Action-Figure/dp/B000IJNR1W

But, ouch. That looks over 2x what it costs here in the US. Dunno if that's just the normal cost out there or if it's due to being from some other Amazon vendor.

No, they're generally £9.99, but that's still close to double what you pay.

I have figured out the head Problem Now when thinking about it If i Use the Top Half of the Starcream And put this on a Base With a Pivot that will mean

A: the nose goes into the body and
B: the head moves Left to Right Easy

All i Will Have to Do is Build up a Base for the Torso and this Will Work So its like the G1 But instead of that having the Pin Via the head It would be on the Piece underneath.

I have to Pick up some more screamer either Way so Will Be Able to Start on this Rather Quickly. The Arms will not Be in the same Place as is on the Screamer but in the Wings like the G1 counterpart Giving Better Access and more True to The Deisgn Will do the Concept Pics Later on. So others get a better idea of this

Is a shame i cant use the orginal figure with him but a rough look to the Way he Looks in Size compared to Blitzwing

Cool. Now lets see a make shift tank mode:)

a quick mock to the paint the Tank Will not be that bad to do really.

Gotta do the stryene cutting for the wings next and back torso

Dam you, I now have to spend 15$ more to get another SS!
I need Blitzwing!!! Looks goooood!
I want to see how you'll pull it off 'cause I'll do the exact same thing!
I had no faith in having G1 Blitzwing as a classics but now it's happening!
Bless you ERB (and that little dancing chick of yours!) !

I'm so excited!!

I Will give you all the details as i go through it privates
