You and your zombies. :lol:

Still an amazing piece none the less. Mind-numbing details.

But now that you have a Prime and Mirage zombie, are you aiming to do the rest of the Autobots too?

Gotta say the whole Zombie thing doesn't work for Transformers. It's a good bash, seems more along the lines of "War Torn" than Zombies.

I wonder how a transformer would become a zombie? Bitten by a toaster of the undead?

It doesn't ? #-o ...not for the cartoons, comics etc... ?
Hmm...ghosts & energy vampires are a no-go as well then ???[-(
There is a difference between dead and damaged, no ?...:-?
Well, I only think they "work" cause I remember them in the story lines so if it's good enough for the cartoon/comic book creators then it's good enough for me :grin:
....That and they fetch a pretty good price so somethings working...:wink:
Thanks folks !

I LOVE IT!!! It looks so.... DEAD. The car mode looks like a real junkyard piece of scrap. This was very well done and it is extremely inspiring. I love the energy vampire concept. I've loved it since reading the TCC comic. Great work, very very nice.

I gotta be honest with ya...ive been watching you do this for a while and i gotta say i dont like the idea of taking these toys, especially alts, and doing this kinda thing to them. It just seems like such a waste...that said i can appreciate the skill and craftsmanship that has gone into this, and the detail is really good.

The zombie thing doesnt work for me either but nevermind.

Heres a suggestion though: Why dont you make a dead Prime on a table? Like in the '86 movie? Now that would be something worthy of beating up a perfectly good toy for.

So whats wrong with trying to find a spare part and restoring the toy? Or just leaving him in bot mode where the missing door wont even be noticed. Or scratch building your own replacement?

Hey thanks !
Hope the inspiration leads to you trying your hand at this or something similar....TF customizing isn't limited to repainting movie figures.... :)

Hmmm... a fellow customizer telling another fellow customizer - it's a waste.... :? ...a little discouraging to say the least.
I don't expect everyone to like it but a fellow customizer saying it's a waste ?...as I've said before:
It's not "ruining/wrecking/wasting"...it's customizing... :DANCE: - You're a very talented customizer, if anyone, you should know that.
I mean....OK....I own an Alt. Mirage mint loose, I own an Alt. Mirage MISB...I found one for VERY cheap missing a door with the stripes horribly scratched(not likely to find a better candidate than that), its not like I took an AFA'd one and opened it and started pullin' pieces off, come on bro, look at the big picture... 8)
If I repainted one would that be a waste ?
of course not - what's the difference ? - nothing, it's customizing right ?
Taking a factory toy and making it into something else.
I didn't sign up here to brag but just so you know, most of the ones I make get sold on eBay.
This one in particular sold for $160.49 U.S. - That's aprox double the MISB price. I hardly call that a waste... :ic$: ...especially considering what condition the figure was to start with.
As for scratch building a door...what do you charge for that ? cause thats gotta be a lot of time & money , no ? - just for a door anyway.
As for the suggestion about the '86 dead Prime, if I've seen it done more than once I don't do it, good suggestion none the less.
Anyhoo, no harm done here bro just letting you know the method behind the madness, hope it makes a little more sense now. - :D

I, I really don't understand how someone could not fully appreciate this piece. To each their own and all, but I know it's not always easy to take a toy and make it look like a real wreck, but not like a broken toy. I don't why why it bothers me, but it does. It's very skillfully done. Is that spiderweb style cracking on the windshield like a sticker or something?

Seriously though, everything you touch ... is gold. Even the stuff you try to destroy, apparently. MAH GAWD!!!

Sorry if it sounded discouraging, i didnt mean it that way.

Maybe using the word "waste" was a little harsh. Im just a big fan of the alts and im sad to see their numbers dwindling bu the day, so when i see one used for purposes like this i get a bit upset as i think such rare toys need to be kept in good condition or restored. I probably wouldnt have given a crap if it was any other toy. :P

What i am saying is, dont take any notice of what im saying as it doesnt matter cos im an idiot. I didnt mean to discourage you or anything, thats the last thing i wanna do. I think it was just the mixture of not really digging the zombie theme and seeing such a rare and discontinued mold battered up like that which made me react that way. So yeah, forget i said anything, my opinions are worthless any how. Keep doing what you love. (btw im not trying to sound flame-y or anything, this is my way of expressing my self hate for making you feel discouraged)

Good job on selling them for those prices though...jeez i wish i could sell mine regularly for those prices.

Clusterprime: Yeah like that, but using the MP Prime mold instead, just like he did with his dark awakening one.
