Minor mods/upgrades to ROTF Onslaught and Brawl

Postby Banjo-Tron » Sun Feb 23, 2014 8:17 am

Motto: "My banjo is everything; defeat is ukelele"
So a couple of days ago I gave Brawl a footjob and Onslaught head. Before you think I'm exploring the murkier depths of Fan fiction let me elaborate. Brawl is obviously the weakest link of the ROTF Bruticus set, and I looked at the various ways to improve him. I thought about the headsculpt, or making the 'wings' somehow removable but eventually I decided that the worst thing about the figure for me was his feet. I cut the feet off a spare ROTF Air Raid and now I use these as 'shoes' for Brawl using the same method by which the tank plugs into the combiner foot. I colour matched them best I could.

Then turning my attention to Onslaught, I hated the headsculpt with a passion, in particular the princess Leia-type hairdo bugged me. So I heated up the pin and removed the head, and then shaved down the neck on the G1 head and drilled a hole dead centre. Then I heated the pin back up and job done. I also used the top parts of each FansProject shotgun and wedged them into the backpack. They hold in place pretty well, although I also removed the combiner head to allow the backpack to close up enough to hold them. I think these 2 changes made this look a lot more identifiable as Onslaught.

Anyway these minor mods only took about a couple of hours and I think they make the Combaticons look more passable and coherent as a unit. I hope you like them.

I think the new head for Onslaught makes a huge difference! I've been looking at swapping over the head from a FoC Onslught myself, as I've got a junker.

Thanks! Nah I just remove them for the transformation, I couldn't see any way to attach them.
