Had an idea whilst driving in the car today of a jet powered insertion pack so that a team of Joes could be dropped from a high altitude plane and all fly in covertly under their own steam as it were.
It can be attached facing any way right now(But i will be adding a harness section that will firmly say "seeker" to anyone looking at it...). And likely everyone here will know what i used as inspiration... Here are some pics of it on in different ways on a Duke figure, and WIP images afterwards(It has taken about 25 minutes to get it to this stage so far). Comments welcomed.

this is a great idea. I am loving the seeker transformers influence on it. I would buy these for my guys in a heart beat. Please keep us updated.

I'm definitely going to be casting it in resin anyway just to have a few for me. How many do you think you'd be after? I am going to be adding the harness and the back padding section before I cast it though. If you have any ideas for parts you'd like to see added, be sure and let me know. |

Man, that looks cool! It reminds me a little of the cobra claw. I wouldn't mind having one like you're doing OR one that looks like the Gryphon. Good work!
