AOE Leader Class Grimlock transformable and heavily modifiied (light gimmick Parts-former)

Postby Joshimus » Mon Jan 12, 2015 10:03 pm

This is a custom I wanted to do the moment I saw the leader toy and how awful it was.
Age of Extinction Leader Class Grimlock turned into a parts-former but it got the look I was going for so...oh well.
Still very much a work in progress, needs more paint but this is him so far.

Some things to note:
-Being a parts former, I made everything fit together but to transform to robot, those parts come off and get placed aside. His entire underbelly comes off. Both feet come off (attach to the hands for dino mode), the dino head comes off and part of his back comes off. So yeah, parts parts parts, but I am happy with his dino mode so...I don't care.
- mace weapon can be swapped with either fists
- will be extending the big mace/sword thingy at some point. Too short imo
- bot head is on a ball joint
- bot shoulder dino heads come attach for robot mode but I am working on getting them to fit inside Grimlocks dino mode
- dino head has hydraulic-like parts similar to the movie, just not nearly as detailed
- dino head has light gimmick
Dino mode:

Is that Slash painted up G1 style in the last pic? Anyways great looking custom, will be neat to see it when the robot mode's paint is done!
Shhhhhhh... I was never here. You never got anything from me.

Made a few adjustments. Dino head horns aren't as long as before (no pics yet, sorry) and I have bot mode weapons updated. Mace is interchangeable with hand and his longer mace weapon staff has been extended for his size.
