Description

Over in Japan, they did these kits based on G1 characters that came with pieces of gum. These kits are most notable because they gave us two new Protectobots, one of whom was a red VTOL jet named Skyfeather. He got a nod in Western fiction through the club bios for Medix and Ratchet, the products of the final year's customization class, and I decided to try and get a version of the character for myself. Lo and behold, Hasbro was kind enough to give me someone I could repurpose - the G2 version of Combiner Wars Firefly. I got a new gun for him from Shapeways, and painted it to match the guns he came with.

Said gun is available here - www.shapeways.com/product/VC66… - and was painted using Testors Spray Enamel Semi-Gloss Primer, Testors Model Master Custom Spray Enamel Bright Light Blue, and Testors Model Master Semi-Gloss Lacquer Overcoat.
