I'm going to guess that those hood ornaments were very variable, considering their size, and what you describe is pretty much what's left of mine.<br /><br />The canopy could be a paint to fit over his shoulder, and probably would have been better made from fabric rather than rubber, not least so it wouldn't restrict the movement of his left arm so much.Gordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528405483770868212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035193998266419227.post-80065481970761608992017-10-21T23:50:19.046+01:002017-10-21T23:50:19.046+01:00Sorry to drop a Monster Reborn on an ancient entry...Sorry to drop a Monster Reborn on an ancient entry, but I must say... despite the Mack dog head breaking off, I'm impressed and a bit jealous that your DotM Megatron actually HAD the hood ornament properly molded on. Mine was nothing more than a puny little triangle shaped spike that looked like it could've been a gun sight or something. I've since lost the canopy to my Megatron...not that it matters much, as it almost never fit properly into the shoulder for robot mode.
