What? That's the only action pose I could post without censoring. :tflaugh

 

Very nice shot of Lio Convoy. He's often said to be particularly hard to photograph, isn't he?

 

Also, those wst dinorobots are awesome. Just how small are they, though? (Like, maybe a comparison of Grimlock and animated Grimlock.)

Hey mom,

Did you just unscrew Wreck-gar's backpack from the black bar running down his spine? I got him today and I'm thinking of doing that so it can be removed/replaced at will.

Thanks

 

WTF, is that an upcoming Arcee you're thinking of doing?

 

No, I still haven't done a repaint yet, but that's a close guess!

 

From my site:

 

The recent repaint of classics Mirage into movie Fracture classics Crasher was very successful in the collector community.

 

Perhaps a little too successful.

 

Reasoning that it worked for Mirage, HasTak execs decided that fans must like gender bended repaints.

 

And so it was that Trixie taught us the real truth behind hood chests…

 

Unfortunately, the character was not a g1 homage so fans hated it.

 

Released in Japan as WonderChest Wonderfest Classics Arcee, the figure was a resounding success.

 

At first her torso was all pink, but then I thought, "You know what's classy? A belly shirt!"

I made a few small changes to Universe "Grapple"...

 

(painted his head and added a bot symbol)

 

Transform and Rise Up!

Transform and Rise Up!

 

Now, only gotta wait for Henkei Dirge & Thrust. :shrug

And also, for my Energon Slugslinger to arrive.

 

Then it'll be rearranged into..

 

Front :: Starscream, Thundercracker & Skywarp

Right Flank :: Ramjet & Dirge

Left Flank :: Thrust & Acidstorm

Rear :: Slugslinger & Cyclonus

Middle / Mobile-Logistic :: Astrotrain & Octane

 

:lol

Soren's Megatron's Throne sketch made real.

 

 

Alternators Ravage and Power Rangers Chrome Prowler Tiger Zord:

 

 

The alt mode on the Prius-Zord is spot-on, very nice. Cat mode is lacking some basic articulation but it's a fun piece. EDIT- I should add that the Prius-cat's shoulder cannons can be stowed by swinging them down, and swinging the door back. Gives it a whole different look. And there is a folding/rotating panel on each back leg that I can't tell what it's for, but it also adds the chance to change his look up.
