Unicron
I put my sculpture degree to good use and made this. Tell me if you like it, and i'm also entertaining offers.

Wow! I like it.

When I first saw the prototype, I laughed at the arms that were supposed to orbit his body but now I see it as an iconic image of the 80's era of toys.

This is a nice homage to that. Very cool.

I sculpted it in clay, made silicone molds, casted in fiberglass resin, and sanded and primered and spray painted it foreverrrrr. Then screwed it all together, its a little bit fragile tho, i think next time i need a stronger resin. Here are a few more pics, it does transform but the arms dont link and you have to take off the legs.

Motto: "If I win again I'm still the champion. If you win HAH! that's just impossible.

Weapon: tea cup."
It's absolutely hideous and looks stupid - it's almost a perfect replica of the real thing! :APPLAUSE: Well done, I'm really impressed. :APPLAUSE: I'm sure there are people that would pay good money for this if you made a few more.

Again: really great work.

That's good work, especially for a first attempt.

Funny little story about this figure (I least I thought it was funny). I was browsing Seibertron galleries one day, and my GF (who had no interest in TFs) was looking over my shoulder. Of all the figures I looked at, THIS was the one that made her say "Oh, that one's cool, who's that?"
