For once, something that is not a tank? Something taht is not a plane?
An Autobot.
The madman strike again with a custom pulled out of his ass in less than an hour!
AUTOBOT JUNKION!
This is not a triple changer. This is not one of Blitzwing's familly.
It was just a matter of taking some trash and make some ball-joints pop-out and in, then figure out how to make this work. Only a little shaving of the kneecaps was needed. No unscrewing, no glue.
Sure, it's hard to tell the front from... the front. But who really care?
Hey, this vehicle work! it's, hum,... Cybertronian.
Yeah.
ALMIGHTY ROBOT MODE!!!
(The ball joints could use some super glue or nail polish.)
He have no weapons. His only goal is to run toward the 'cons, shouting and flailing his arms around to draw all the fire.
He is the perfect decoy. An obstinate decoy that regenerate!
The only true modding was to take an Exacto knife to shave off some kneecaps so the knees bend some the other way to allow the car to be level.
Appart that, yup, just part swaps. I'm amazed at how much parts ar compatible with each others. That junk lot of mine is like a big box of Lego!
That's why I may do a "junkion" series.
At least, this time, nothing new or unbroken was used.
Next step, painting. What color (appart ****) should I paint him?
Meh... this suck...
Forget this one. I came up with a much better design:
I came up with the prototype in less than an hour, but I was not satisfied.
Here's the perfect version:
It dont roll at all because there bits or arm underneath that dont clear enough, but it's no biggie.
This is not Cybertronian anymore. This time, it's really Earth based... if the protoform felled into a scrapyard, of course!
Only the green "smokestacks" need to be painted. Maybe a nice silver.
Here's the vehicle mode 2.0:
FLIGHT MODE!
Tons of Transformers pull a "flight mode" out of a ground vehicle by just popping out some wings.
So shut up.
This mode make me use some features of the legs that I would not use otherwise.
It's not too shabby for a bonus mode.
Robot mode next post.
