Hey guys!
I finished another one in the last few days! I think this is some sort of record for me, as I usually have about 3 going on at a timeand never get to actually fininsh any! lol:D

I took a shot a Jazz this time. I tried the chest mod, I liked how it bulked him up abit. The stickers are from Repolables. I used the regular G1 Jazz set but I think if I were going to do it again I would use the BT version and cut them down to fit.
Anyway on to the pics, hope you like, C&C's welcome of course! :D

**I forgot to mention that I got the head for a fellow customizer named Wheeljack over on Sector7.com. It is a a recast of the Shattered Glass exclusive.**

It looks awesome!

Comments:
1) maybe add a red stripe around the bottom of the car?
2) could you turn the hips and legs around?

thats a pretty good use of that mold,and the shattered glass jazz head looks good on his shoulders.did you have to shave the head down or modify it to fit the transformation?nice paint apps too!!!

Thanks guys!

Tusko--Red stripe is a good idea, might try that. The leg thing I tried but I couldn't get the legs to fit right for transformation, also there was a big gap in what would have been the shin of the leg.

Chans Formers--The head fit pretty well on its own, probably could have been shaved a little bit. For transformation you have to turn head side ways instead of backward for his "horns".

Bruticus82--All I did was take an exacto knife and make a straight cut across the fender just above the clear part of the headlight. Then just crazy glue it to the chest. Mine has just enough clearance for the shoulders, so you might want to try a diangonal cut to allow for more movement.

That looks great! I had the idea of using the Prowl mold for Jazz when I bought the figure, but I have never before kitbashed and I know I would have messed up and wasted $14.
