Me neither. Morally, a Transformer should Trans-form, not Lego-form.

But I do agree, if you have to you have to (especially for your own awesome custom) .

Kinda hard for me to give you an honest yes or no as I gotta have it in hand to determine what would work...I'm not dak :P

From what I remember though the one time holding the toy he's got thin arms but I can't imagine them working inside of my head...show me at AFX if you don't figure something out by then

[chans formers]

have you tried looking at bw basic figures?some of the have some really useful and small joints you may be able to salvage.(bat primal and drillbit come to mind....)

[Retread]

Would it work to use one of the wing bits as your hinge point? If the piece you cut was glued on where the exposed wing bit is (not much area there, would have to reinforce it somehow) should swing up around to where the hips are I think...

i am going to see what i can do with the arms of speed dial, and if they work i will be done, if not, a small hinge will be embedded into it, i don't want to parts form

I like your TF-morals!
