ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[ARAFAT209]

Thought i might as well post this here now.
Heres a custom ROTF leader Prime that i did for BCM's birthday.
Let me know what you think.

wow , i love it ,how long it took you to paint it?

 

[Dubcustomz]

@dubcustomz- Excellent work on that Prime! The weathering, more accurate flames, detailing on the mechanics and articulated fingers are all just superb. Outstanding piece!!!

Thanks. I have a new one coming soon that'll put this one to shame.

Hmm...cant remember exactly but i didnt rush it. I took my time on it, so a few months maybe? If i wanted to though i could get one done in under a month if i really wanted to.
Thanks for the comment.

Nice work Dubz, looks awsome !!!!!

Got some new figs, so thought I'd post.

RTS Grapple

United Wreck Gar

My Sweeps, Lugz and Terrordive

Just waiting for my United Scourge now !

We REALLY need a new Galvatron. Come on FP !!!

I really like Terrordive. Such a cool figure.

I love the way these three look together.

For the Glory of Megatron !!!!!!

Dubz,
I've seen that Prime before somewhere and very nice it is too!

Bob,
Nice pics! I didn't realise Lockdown was so tall.

Grapple looks nice with the remolded parts although I think I'll paint the crane hook and front bumper silver when I get mine. Does the crane attachment create any balance issues when reposing it?

United Wreck-Gar is VERY tempting as there's a nice mixture of shiny paint and slightly less light grey plastic bits so I'd use him
as my actual Wreck-Gar until the FP comes along.

For such a bulky robot Lugnut can pull off some nice poses and he looks another great addition to a line that's relatively light on Decepticons.

I don't like Terradive's coloring but his overall design is nice especially the trident weapon. If a repaint is released in the DOTM lines I'd certainly consider getting one even though it'd be repurposed as a generic Decepticon drone or something.

I like the Cyclonus & Scourge molds so much I'm even considering getting the clear plastic ones in the e-hobby set which I gather are supposed to represent the moment when they were "born" in the '86 Movie.

I echo the call for a better Galvatron as that Deluxe isn't really a proper update of the character in the way the other 2 are.

 

[Dubcustomz]

After seeing them side by side i think i'll go for the United Wreck Gar as well.
Im selling some toys on ebay which will hopefully pay for a united Jazz and maybe a Wreck Gar too, and if im lucky perhaps even a henkei Inferno or RTS/United Grapple.

Generations Arcee and Starscream are NOT happening, those listings that appeared in TRU or Wal-Mart store computers a while back actually turned out to be for the toys of those characters from the Prime cartoon so anyone waiting for an official G1 style Arcee are out of luck.

Even if the line continues in the US ( It ended here at wave 2 ) I expect little but retools of the more recent molds with new headsculpts.........Perceptor is already confirmed to be retooled as Reflector and from the headsculpt on the illustrations in his instructions it seems Warpath will be retooled into Hardhead.

With a new movie line to push I hardly see Hasbro spending their budget on some all new Generations molds as it'd mean they couldn't make as many new versions of Bumblebee.

unless they scrapped it, there is a Car Arcee in the works. I believe they mentioned it at the SDCC panel last year? I forget. Either way, I expect we will see what, if anything they have planned for generations at Botcon.

Custom Transformer : Masterpiece Acid Storm - eBay (item 130499203065 end time Mar-24-11 05:09:15 PDT)

 

[frenzy_rumble]

This statue/throne of Masterpiece Megatron was built using a takara Megatron, with lots of mods/changes:

• rebuilt arms
• rebuilt legs
• rebuilt head
• G1 cannon

His eyes light up thanks to a small LED, it's wiring runs down meg's back, out the back of the throne. A capacitor will be added at a later stage of this project (larger than just megs and LB) to help dim the brightness on the eyes.

Laserbeak's eyes also light up (big thanks to Big Hanks for making what seemed impossible a reality) Throne was built from lots of parts.

Here's Scrapper. Custom head care of Calloway / Shapeways. Little trimming off the back/top, but fits him well.

Scrapper will form Devastator's LEFT leg.

A Masterpiece grade seeker I've wanted to do for a long time. Went with a similar camo pattern to the Icestorm(s) I've done in the past, yet this camo pattern/style is built with flame shapes. I did some heavy modding/effects to the wings using the trusty dremel, some fire and hot glue. Of the classic/universe Sunstorms I've done in the past, this color palette seemed to get the best/highest feedback.

Masterpiece Icestorm, version 2. Made some minor changes since the original. Went with a more "sharp" style camo pattern, white feet, null rays, brighter shades of blue.

Commissioned Jazz for "the" Jazz fanatic/#1 fan out there. Only mod made was removing the doors from the leg sides and making them so they snap onto Jazz's back while in robot mode, and then back into their original slots for car mode. Used a new product (not yet available to the public) from Alclad's increasing paint selection called "Alclad Aqua Gloss" and it is hands down the best gloss clear I've ever experienced. Lays super thin, smooth and looks wet even when dry (minutes later) - only wish my photos can show it off better.

I think I'll just get the iGear Arcee as if Hasbro's still happens it'll inevitably be nothing like the G1 design as they seem to feel obligated to reimagine everything nowadays.

Thats a good thing, otherwise we'd still have G1 bricks for toys.
But i rekon they'll do good, so far with the rts/generations/universe/classics lines nearly all of the toys have been perfect upgrades. Not all but most.

Amazing customs. Amazing.

Meh, as long as she's a Pink sportscar, I'm happy.

if you're referring to mine, then thank you!
