Classics Optimus Energon Axe Idea

Hey guys. I’ve been brain storming this idea for several days, and decided to begin work on it. I’m going to build a custom energon battle axe for Classics Prime. The design is to be updated like the figure from G1. I got one design I really like, attached below. The axe will be digitally sculpted, then 3d printed. Never had a model 3d printed for myself before, so it will be cool to see in person.

Anyways, below is the design I’m thinking of going with. The base will attach to Prime’s hand, and conceal it from all angles except the bottom. There will be a peg to secure it into his hand. The blades will be translucent, and the base will be all silver, with etched panel lines. I also had another idea to add to the battle axe. What if the axe half could come off and attach to a long handle, like Animated Prime’s axe? Or should I just keep to the design below? Anyways, all comments and suggestions welcome!
