I just KNEW you would make this Jin! He had it written all over him, didnt he?

 

If you like obscure bots, how about:

 

- Movie protoform starscream into either banzaitron or one of the other decepticon actionmasters?

 

- cybertron smokescreen repaint into Rad (as this is based on him anyway, the work needed would be minimal)

 

- The rest of the actionmasters (that never featured a transformation in their only original toy form)

 

- The animorph figs:

 

- lion as Steeljaw

 

- bear as chainclaw (the idea being that they have fused with their pretender shells. you could even give them their backpacks and helmets for their beast modes!)

 

- tiger as Catilla

 

- wolf as Carnivac

 

- Three people that become a dinosaur as anyone you want!

 

ETC

 

The animorph figs would only require a new head and chest sculpt plus some way to change their "claws for gloves" plus the ridiculous tail-as-an-arm for one of the dinosaur bots.

Awesome job as usual Jin. I just had this thought last night and you beat me to it. Thats ok though I have some other ideas for this mold. One question though how did you get the hands to pop out? I haven't tried yet so I was just wondering how hard it is to pop them out.

genius

one of the first things i posted when i saw the sideswipe/sunstreaker toy was "P/PC EXCLUSIVE COMING PLEEEEEASE???"

 

if they do one & it's even half as good as yours i'll snap one up - cool job dude!

I recently rewatched the "Rebirth" G1 episodes and forgot how bad Punch/Counterpunch sucked as a character.

 

"Hey guys, my autobot brother is gonna be nearby. Just lemme step outside the doorway for a sec!"

 

(two seconds later)

 

"Haha!! I bet you didn't know I was here!"

 

Ugh terrible character.

 

Jin's work is of course awesome as usual though! :thumb

 

Terrible because the writers sucked hard core on that episode. They did a better job for Headmasters

Very nice indeed! What with all the reversable joints, it almost looks like HasTak intended for people to made this custom!

Question Jin: Why did you choose to make the roof chest Punch?

 

I mean, if you had chosen hood chest, and gone with a subtle orange-to-blue-fade job where the seam was, wouldn't it have looked a lot less random?

I was thinking the same thing... This is a really great piece and it inspired me to possibly create a punch/counterpunch as well...

 

I was thinking something along the lines like this:

 

And again as usual excellent work Jin :win

Bib Overalls? :)

 

Awesome custom, Jin. Just hope nobody sneaks up behind him.

 

*Imagines Punch/Counterpunch sidling against walls everywhere he goes.*

 

Aw man, that makes me like this fig even more. Cheese is delicious!

That sucks that the vehicle mode can only be autobot, but otherwise nice job Jin!
