I was limited on time, so I did a small repaint. Hope you like it.

I am tempted to try and De-Kibblefy my Leader Prime. The First obvious target would be his Coat Tails/Back Wheels. Next his Sleaves/Cab. I think both of these could be removed in such a way that makes them easily and securely refasten during transformation. Anyone have any other suggestions? I think His backpack might be modifiable but, I don't know if its worth it to go that far. But, I am a pretty novice KB'er though, I do enjoy messing around with my figs once in a while. So, I am curious if any one else has already tried this or has suggestions on how. If I get the courage up to do it - I will post pics.

http://www.firebladecomics.com/customs/landmine.html Read his featured comic: Guns are the Answer! You may have heard this already but Landmine is an AWESOME figure, he really is. He is very articulated, very posable, each wheel has shocks, and there's limitless potential for repainting/customizing! So here we are with what is mostly a simple repaint of 6inch Movie Landmine into an Army green scheme with white decals. Very much like the Artillery Strike Wreckage I did recently. He includes his mounted gun, but I made a removable fire molding for it so it looks like it's shooting. He also includes a custom made mini Allspark cube because his hands grip things so we…

First I'll say that it was the MP Soundwaves built by Dio and Computron that inspired me to start kitbashing (Alongside Jaffs MP work) Ever since then, I've wanted my own Soundwave to go with my collection and here I am. So anywho, here's very early pics of Soundwave 3 in the process................... I don't even know what this d00ds name used to be, but he's getting his ass chopped and hacked like all the other suckers that end up in my parts bin. The piledrivers will be attached. His regular arms will be rounded on one side of the upper and lower forearms to look tubular from the front. The lower drivers will be covered with full tubes and those…

I've never repainted a figure before but I recently saw a Movie Clocker (redecoed from the Cybertron figure of the same name) and I found that its vehicle mode looked a lot like a cross between Hot Rod's sportscar mode and Rodimus Prime's space Winnebago mode, and thought that this might make a good Scout-sized Hot Rod that could duke it out with the Deluxe Galvatron that they're releasing as part of the Universe line. Has anyone tried this, and how difficult do you think it would be to pull this off?

Hey fellas, I'm back working on HOS Prime's mods on the joints and other issues concerning molding and casting to eliminate the problems i encountered in his first molds. Now I'm moving on to his trailer, would want it to open up now, but I have another problem: its empty. So anyone can suggest or even be kind enough to draw up some sketches of how the inside should look like? Old thread's here

hey guys, commissioner wanted an OS more themed to the G1 colors. He's currently 70% complete, but I took some pics last night, which I seem to like a lot. no light tent, not even a tripod, and the lighting (or lack of) seems to capture a good menacing mood to his 1st photo shoot. Anyway... let me know what you think!

I made this custom for the "In Honor of Vector" contest over TFW2005. It's made from a RID Optimus Prime. Ladder was replaced by Cyb Defense Red Alert's rocket to make the vehicle mode a rocket transporter/carrier. Color scheme for Magnus is based on Vector's Alt Magnus custom. Ultra Magnus is of course based on G1 colors. I also modded the chest to make it look more Ultra Magnus and replaced the head with a Hydrospanned (and modded) Energon Superion head. Oh, you may notice some of the pics of UM lacks the yellow highlights. I added the yellow after I took the initial pics. Edit: Saw a base mode for the RID OP on TFU so I played around with it and came up with base…

Is there a safe way to remove pins w/o damaging the figure. I have a GF Galaxy Convoy who's chest pieces won't close cause the tabs snapped a little. I have a Cyb Optimus I have started painting for the Final Battle one where he's all gold. But I didn't do the chest and I thought that it'd be nice to swap them and they're held with pins. Would a hammer and nail work? I'm a little hesitant. Any help would be appreciated.
