![[Blitzwing] Transformers Generations Voyager Blitzwing had a lot of quality control issues right out of the box, so many in fact that people started returning him. I set out to fix each issue and make him a decent figure starting with the shoulder assembly that falls apart when you move his arms. The mod is to unscrew all five screws in his back, open him up, and sand down the edges of his inner torso you see circled in red, about a quarter's width. Then sand down the peg posts the same width so the two halves snap back together with no gap. To fix the head not fitting in the nosecone take a large engraver (bladed ball) bit and Dremel out some of the soft rubber, then use acetone to wipe the rest of the purple plastic out from inside there so it doesn't rub. If his faces are stuck unscrew the head and sand the yellow paint off of the rod the faces spin around. Done! After all those mods I gave Blitzwing some panel lining, scuffed highlights, an additional secondary color shade, and added two back](userimages/customs/50000/49976-1.jpg) Blitzwing | ![[DARK LANDMINE (Decepticon)] I removed the head, and modified the upper part using Apoxy Sculpt and eliminating the visor, I also sculpted over the Autobot symbol on his chest, I proceed with a full paint job, and added custom made decals on his chest, and each side of the battle station.](userimages/customs/50000/49803-1.jpg) DARK LANDMINE (Decepticon) Transformersby shakaI removed the head, and modified the upper part using Apoxy Sculpt and eliminating the visor, I also sculpted over the Autobot symbol on his chest, I ...1 comments on eBay Now! |

I have to say that I new found appreciation for the guys that customize Transformers. I dont know if I will ever try another one of these again. I started by taking him completely apart. Some of the pins were a real pain in the you know what. Painted all the parts and then put him back together. I did not change him into his truck because I was having a terrible time with the paint rubbing off. I also did not add the wings back onto his back, I didnt like the way that they look.

Her neck mod involves buying a set of the double ball joints from Big Bad Toy Store and removing her old one, drilling down into the neck piece so you can glue in the ball cup. The other ball post end snaps perfectly in her head socket. For her ball-jointed elbows I used TF Movie Depthchage's elbows, cutting the originals off at the red swivel peg and drilling into that to mount the gold ball cups. While Ripclaw's bio mentions the character is a 'She' there's still argument in the Transformers fandom. Here I went to put an end to that buy sculpting a brand new chest plate to show off her new assets.

Hot Rod was painted with metallic red Testors one coat Lacquer as his base and sealed with their Wet Look one coat lacquer clear which really holds up in terms of durability.

For my classics deluxe-scaled version, I swapped the legs (so the thighs are backwards) to help differentate him from a regular Bumblebee figure and from my custom Goldbug. I also modified the bumper, and added some styrene work so the bumper doesn't look hollow when in Bot mode.
The doors pop off, and I used a bit from the Infinity War I set (red) to create the energon forearm blade assembly. I usually display him with his doors 'on' though.
Painted with Mr. Hobby matte black lacquer paint & Gunmetal, sealed with Mr. Spray UV Cut Super Clear matte.
To keep the black/black colorscheme from looking too monotonous, I used a metallic black on the windshield/windows, and a Citadel Gloss varnish on the bumpers, runners, and above the wheel hubs.
Thanks to the lacquer paint and proper sanding/prep there's zero paint rub after many, many Transformations.

-3rd Party Beelzeboss "Growing Pains" Custom Kit (head + guns).
I used Aves apoxie sculpt to redo the bumper, headlights (Q.C issue on the original - jagged edge/misaligned), roof and back half to remove the spoiler and chest tech. Also added magnets in place of the rotating screw-peg on each forearm. Added styrene piece on the front of his thighs + aves resculpt to help differentiate him further from the stock Bumblebee mold. I replaced the wheels using WFC Optimus wheels (reattached with cold-heat soldering tool + resculpted hubcaps). Windshield (inside and out) was overlaid with a piece of thin styrene, cut from a pattern created using masking tape. The original windshield's surface suffered a mishap (FYI: Krylon black paint + Mr. Sprays sealant react very badly!), so this was the only real solution without scraping a 99% complete figure. The end result turned out really well despite this setback.

![["Overkill Is Underrated" Leader Class Ir] I love Leader Ironhide figure. It has great proportions and makes this autobot look very tough. I decided to modify my figure, to make it look even more Badass. First of all - color. I don't like blue paint Hasbro is using, so I repainted whole figure black. I added some drybrush and outlined details. Black, gold and silver really match character, so I stuck to those colors. My second complain was lack of big guns. It's Ironhide - he should be armed to teeth... Voyager version has bigger guns than leader. That is why I modified voyager Ironhide's cannons, added DOTM laserbeak's guns and few minor changes to give him this "Overkill is Underrated" look. Guns can be switched and placed in many ports. This gives Ironhide different looks depending on weapons he needs. Finally - Ironhide got his own working lights. Each headlight has it's own LED and battery, so You can decide whether one, both, or none of them is turned on. I hope You like it.
