Perhaps remodeling her canopy in vehicle mode by basing it on the Mach 5 from Speed Racer might give a more female shape???

i might take part in this, i hate override, i bought her last night, and realised i wasted my money, i should have gotten clocker

Clocker is an awesome looking figure. I love the repaint of him that was shown at Botcon this year too.

i probably wouldnt have a problem wiht override if she was a he, cuz when you first saw pics of the figure and the name, nitro convoy, u knew it was gonna be male, but nooooooooo hasbro had to confuse and anger us, but making him a she, and to anger us, they made her wicked bulky!

it's not hasbro's fault. Cartoon Network is the one that wanted the change. They wanted more female characters. So Hasbro had to do it. I find it worked out well for the show, but the toy does need some work.

How on Earth would Cartoon Network have a say in how many female charaters the show got?

I mean I guess its possible, but I jsut don't see how or why they'd care. Its a cartoon aimed at little boys, they have one main female character in Lory, don't see the point of changing Nitro Convoy like they did.

Well, now they have a female per faction. Autobot, Decepticon, and human.

so they want the little boys attrated to female transformers?

The reason why is that Cartoon Network also wants to attract the female audience as well. Even if they don't buy the toys. More female characters attract more girls to the show.

Even if CN had nothing to do with the "gender" change, theres no argument that the "chemistry" between Override and the girls in the show just works. Having watched Cybertron and seeing the interaction between Speedia and Earth females, watching GF would just seem weird because haveing the nickname "little-sister" go threw my mind and haveing Nitroconvoy talk would just seem to "Transvestite" like.

"Override TRANSFORM!!!! ::soundeffects:: (deep voice) So how about we watch girls jump up-and-down?"

a smaller chested Nitro Convoy/Override, so it is possible
and look: clear feet (not red)

It certainly works better.

I like the Sideways and Firestar ones as well.

Hm... I wonder how they shrunk it down while maintaining all the parts... *Mind begins to fomrulate how.* Yeah. I can see it... But that's a touch extensive and only somethong to do if you really wanna. Otherwise it seems pretty futile as the upper body is still pretty wide. The difference is maybe about a half an inch on either side.

looks a whole lot better!

I can't tell anything from those pictures. I see those black bits on the back are lower, but I have no idea why.
arg. I wish the caps on the backs of the torso weren't glued on on mine.

If it weren't for the comparison pics i wouldn't even see the difference. Yeah, it's thinner, but it still doesn't look female.

It is a Japanese site so whoever did this probably wasn't going for a female look just more reasonable male body proportions.

They were attempting to feminise it. Quoted from the poster (translated awkwardly, of course)

Whoever did the conversion wrote:Width doing to stuff the body of the nitro convoy, it tried making the somatotype which is visible in the woman.
Because it has made expansion and contraction system, there is no strange feeling even with vehicle mode, becoming the sea urchin, whether the る.

The color ring burns and sprouts from DarkMatter of the board.

I dissasembled last night my Override trying to figure how the heck they did the mod, but i could find an answer (and reassemble the figure was pure HELL)

I have a version comming soon. it's almost done, just need another arm, and the secong headlight. then painted. This one looks pretty cool.

All they did was hack bits out of the back part and compress it all together. As well, if you notice, the black part her head is on the person also made able to lower/rise in bot mode. (Or just simply lowered.) Then there's the already mentioned clear headlights and... That's it. *Shrugs.*

You're seeing things. O_o;; (Unless you mean the headlights and/or lowered back part.)

What I'm talking about can easily be seen in the upper right pic/part of the pic.

THIS is a Femmy Override, anyone mind trying their hand at making the closest representation of what he Racer mode would look likt with a Bod like that. Im thinking Stylized Dragster (with such a small canopy.)

Yes. Or at least the female ones do. Face it, female belly buttons are sexy. If it was a male bot it would look stupid, but on a female it works for some reason.
and that's what I think anyway

Yeah...? All I'm thinking is "lust." *Goes back to drooling, making a mess all over the thread.* @m@;;
