Upgrades

Alright guys here is my kitbashed TF energon Ultra Magnus. I saw a simmlar custom a few months ago. It was done useing Armada bendy prime, and the energon mini-fatimus prime from TRU. I wish, I could remember who did it. I really liked that guys kitbash, and I wanted to do one of my own. I didnt however want to steal his thunder, or rip off his idea totaly. So I decieded to try something a little diffrent with mine. I took the arms and legs off of the Battle in Box Magnus. I then attached them to the mini-fatimus. I took a little fileing on the arms to in order to get bendy prime's lower arms to fit. I took his feet off, and cliped the the thunder thighs. This way he co…

ok, my grand plan is to repaint a show accurate rm beast convoy, retool the head & repaint rm lioconvoy -->"rodimus primal" and retool the head and repaint a big convoy or rm beast convoy for a magnus figure. in g1/dreaqmwave, optimus and ultra magnus were basicly protoform brothers, so with that logic, i could use a rm beast convoy in white and call it magnus. on the other hand big convoy has a matrix, and some similar sculpt patterns to g1 ultra magnus. because otimus primal did not have the matrix, he was not a true Prime, but if i used the big convoy mold, magnus could be called Magnus prime. any input would be great. oh, the rm molds are still on preorder for…

All right, I’m about to start painting my Deluxe Energon Ultra Magnus. But I can’t decide which version to base it off of. Cartoon :thumb or toy :tdown . I want to keep it close enough that I can remove his “Armor - Droidsâ€? that he’ll still resemble Magnus. Therefore I’m leaning towards the cartoon colors (White thighs and Blue waste). Also, I did some color sketches and I can’t decide which blue to use. I don’t really like the light blue, but I can’t decide Royal or Navy Blue. I don’t want him looking too much like my G1 accurate Energon Prime. Give me some opinions please. I’m wanting to start this weekend so I’ll have it done for when I open u…

I had posted these pics in another post but figured I'd throw them out there for everyone to see. My first real repaint it's not the best but for a first shot I'm not complaining. Enjoy.

im wanting to start a MPOP trailer, i realized it would be easier to find a truck model kit, and cusomise the trailer im just wondering, what scale is the truck mode compared to an actual 18 wheeler? is it 1:24 like the ALT's, or is it different? Purple-Bot

Shot with Sideswipe and my semi-repainted Mach alert to the side: (Oops! Too big! Will repost resized image...) Here we go:

So why havent we seen ANY Cliffjumper Kitbashes out of the Mazda mold?? My understanding is that CJ and JZ were the same type of car (only a mini-bot for price-point reasons). There is no reason BumbleBee and Cliffjumper have to be the same mold/transformation scheme etc. I mean if we did get a RED mini-cooper that would be nice. But we dont we have a RED MAZDA so why did has-tak give us a RED remold of Jazz and name it something lame and make a lame clonewars story about it??? Where is Cliff Jumper???? Did Kasey Kasem sue or something? I would do it myself BUT i still have not seen EITHER MAZDA in my area and i am kinda a crap kitbasher I just assumed …

I'm not too fond of the Alt Wheeljack that is scheduled, I think he should be more of a sleek vehicle and look more like his G1 counterpart (and what's up with the sword??) So I've digibashed my own version, as a Tracks remold which I think would have worked better, and I think would have been a much better remold than Battle Ravage, but that's my two cents... EDIT: Added a quick digibashed vehicle mode, based on a Viagra Prime's Alt StormShadow pic, where I added some stripes (I was too lazy to take a pic of Tracks and digibash a spoiler on it, and VP's already had one...) (used a BT-tracks pic from bwtf)

I can't find pics of that one Masterpiece Starsaber scratchbuilt custom. It was SOOO cool and i wanted to look at it. I'm pretty sure it was a WIP. Does anyone have pics or a link to the pics? Thanks. PS - I THINK this goes in the customs section. I also notice bodycount's not "leading" this section anymore. Did he get fired or what?

this is a digibash of alternaters Windcharger. I got the idea from black zarak.
