That works well. Pity the arms would cost a fortune to buy now.

That looks great. A little busy with the flashy hands but the rest is nice.

Opened up Grimlock. He is fine though badly misses not having any weapons. Needs gun and sword!

Yeah, I don't know what they were thinking with that. Well, aside from saving money.

How can you not be satisfied by sticking large feet to his arms!?

How can you not be satisfied by sticking large feet to his arms!? Which, in turn, are also large feet.

Loads. But the recent ones involve buying weapon sets for the whole Dinobot team and not just Grim, so it gets expensive.

So, I've reproed my PotP Rodimus, but I have a bit of an impasse.
I'm repurposing the toy as Beast Era Rodimus, following the old Botcon Wreckers lead. During the great upgrade, Rodimus had his new body maximal body built to look like his old Hotrod body, and can combine with a set of armor to mimic his Rodimus Prime form, which boosts him to Autobot size.
My conundrum is this: I can't decide which form I want to put a Maximal symbol on, and which I eant to put an Autobot symbol on. Any suggestions?

Maximal for the smaller, Autobot for the bigger UNLESS your headcanon is that the smaller Rodimus is Micromaster Rodimus in which case it would be vice versa

Well... a micromaster Hotrod would be the same size as a Maximal Hotrod, in a BW display, as micromasters are similar size as maximals and predacons.
This headcanon is that he resigned leadership, but is now an emissary. He was one of the first transformers to downsize in the Upgrade, to encourage others to do so, too. He had his new maximal body crafted to look like his old, and he had his old body converted into a Rodimus style trailer that he can combine with to boost himself up to autobot size.
And I've always leaned to Hotrod= Maximal symbol, and Rodimus= autobot symbol, too. However the reprolabels come with whole chest stickers, and sticking a symbol ol in now permanent. I need to be absolutely certain which direction I wanna go in, or else I ruin the whole sticker.
I'm using PotP Optimus in a similar way, with the headcanon that after millions of years of being a wartime leader, Optimus wants to fade into obscurity. He had his new body crafted into something no one anymore would recognize: Orion Pax. Though Rodimus had his old boxy crafted into a trailer/exosuit (against Optimus' wishes). So Orion Pax spends his time running a bar. And occasionally Mother-Truckin' Optimus Prime turns up out of nowhere like a superhero to stop injustice.

Very worried by all the comments in the thread on that site saying "OH BOY THAT LOOKS GREAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT!!"
But to be fair, that mold needs all the help it can get.
