Hi. You can do it in ICE as suggested, also... I did a quick test where I applied Pc2 cache to a blank Rock Falcon head. All I had to do was to create a single shape to edit the points. So: In the shape manager, select all "points" and scale/move them for the shape.
Upon playback, the Pc2 was well referenced with the shape edits. This solution 'may' be faster.

I guess it would also have to be above the mixer op of the cache which is in the modeling stack right?

In a tree, get kine global null, get kine global geo. Mutliply kine global of geo by kine global of null (remember the order is important). Set kine global of geo. You are done. No you can scale or move the null to manipulate the geo. Alok Lead TD Modusfx.
