3D model description

Look at the hinge on your Earthrise Ratchet or Ironhide. is it cracking? mine did. while trying to remove paint it completely crumbled (yes I'm well aware this is my fault). However, after posting about it, several people showed off that their hinges were in the starting phases of cracking, and I can bet given enough time their windshield will follow the same fate as mine. Seeing as how nobody should have to pay to have get this stupid design choice fixed, these are being provided free

So I remade the windshield, and while I was at it I remade the hinge piece too so that it looks a little more flush with the vehicle mode. this is entirely optional as it's been designed to allow the original hinge piece to be used

To get at this piece, the bumper/chest section comes apart with three screws and then it's a quick replacement. If replacing the hinge, you'll need to extract the pin and insert it into the new piece
