Depth Charge is a character from Transformers: Beast Wars cartoon series. He turns into a Manta Ray and also a space cruiser mode.

My LEGO rendition of Depth Charge improved upon his original toy by making him more proportionate (read: sexy) and less top heavy. And he finally has a well sculpted waist and abs, well deserving for a robotic warrior constantly on a hunt .

The wings on his space cruiser mode buckled when placed on the ground, so I have to prop it up with a lego-built stand to hover .

The robot mode is articulated, as usual. The tail-turned- sword used to be bigger, but I was forced to redesign and simplify it so that it can be lighter and wielded in robot mode without sagging.
