Well, Henkei Sunstreaker is a different shade of yellow that I like more anyway, and that'll provide some extra-cool contrast between him and Tigertrack.

Plus, if I spend $20 on toys I already own just to take them apart, I'll feel bad. Especially with my lack of cash lately. I'm just glad there's nothing much coming out soon--yay Hound and Cyclonus, but that's about it.

Cracked open the other Sideswipe I bought and promptly did some parts swapping:

I did some extra stuff to Tigertrack. I put the lower legs on backwards and then turned his feet around, giving him this retro no-feet stump look that some early G1 toys like Wheeljack and Jazz sorta have. I might paint part of his legs black for contrast. I've also got the rear bumper on Spinout up covering his upper legs, almost like Galvatron-style thigh armour. Variance!

And yes, I know those photos are horrible. It's my phone.
