Oh, what's this?

Looks familiar?

This is something I made using bootleg Lego parts. So, yeah, limited parts...

Also did some modifying of my own...

Do you know what it is? Here's a clue.

Yes. It's G1 Ironhide's roof/battle station/tank thing.

And, as I've mentioned earlier, I was limited by the parts that I have. If it were up to me, those blue parts would have been black.

But it does work, yes? Those guns fold in storage. In lieu of tank threads, I just used ordinary wheels so it could still, at least, roll in "alt mode."

The rear hatch unfolds into a ramp and has an extra set of wheels for that "tank" look, and so the ramp wouldn't just drag itself.

Admittedly, I'll just leave this on my table in the "deployed" mode.

I just wish that I have more white parts so I could build Ratchet his own...

Slick concept, and it really works for a Kreon concept. Little rough looking in its truck mode, but that could certainly be ironed out later if you aquire additional parts. You've got me thinking about that small Optimus Prime set as a basis...
