You've got the touch...

He required more work than I had originally expected, but it was pretty fun.

I wish they cast those connector parts in colors other than Allspark Blue.

CP, your gifs are amazing. Brainstorm had me mesmerized.

Wow, if that didn't trip some nostalgia in my brain. I actually know what that is and where it's from!

Star Wars Action Fleet, released by Galoob under the Micro Machines banner. A line of small Star Wars vehicles with pilots, as well as a few playsets and some multi-figure "battle packs" like the one pictured above. I used to have a whole mess of these things, and they do indeed make great Diaclone pilot replacements.

My CHRUG Rodimus

My Review

ROTF Mixmaster was on my "must buy" list for a long time. I missed both him and Long Haul (another must buy) when they were first released. Thankfully, a stray wandering through a flea market bore fruit! I managed to grab BOTH Mixmaster and Long Haul for $10 apiece!

Mixmaster is another great example of the more unique robot modes that RoTF brought us before everyone screamed "WHY DON'T THEY LOOK HUMAN? THEY LOOK STUPID!" to which I replied "YOU LOOK STUPID!" Of course I was sitting alone in my apartment at the time, except for my cat who didn't care what the hell I was saying. The neighbors downstairs were cross with my screaming though, as they started banging on their ceiling with a broom handle until I shouted "HAHA! YOU HAVE TO FIX THAT!"

. . .

So yeah! Love his look! Now you can too on my Twitter!

I hope you have the ROTF Buldozer as well. I have a brain fart so I cant remember his name. Anyway, his CENTAUR robot mode sure is dope!

I got his name by googling his picture but I don't wanna type it.

@Gema; Sweet shots, especially the alt modes on the flight stands.
Well done!

It's always fun when things work out like that.

Thanks! It's actually a custom floor mounted door hinge sample. I placed the clear base of a figure stand on top of the bearings and put that on top of the bearing enclosure. The drinks and tray came with Maketoys Trash-Talk (Swerve). Getting everything to balance for the photo was quite tricky. It all came crashing down shortly after.

That's the one. I've wanted to recreate that picture for a long time. The Warden add-on kit (leg guns) finally arrived so I had a chance.

Perceptor turned into a bad-ass pretty quick didn't he? What was his big contribution before? Corrostop? Discussing gamma-waves and their effects on navigational calculations with Ultra Magnus? What does he do now? Now he puts speed holes in Decepticons heads for The Wreckers! That's a hell of a job change.

Look, look with your special eyes!

Well, Starascream, Hasbro, the toy, the game, and everyone else on the planet called him Rampage. The credits and Michael Bay says his name is Skipjack.

So his name is Rampage

and yes, I have him too! :KREMZEEK:
