From the 1st time i saw Cybertron Thunderblast, I said oh my god its Scourge's girlfriend. Well she is a boat not a Space Ship/Hovercraft but its close. With some careful well chosen mods she would make a nice Sweeps I think.

Thunderblast

Robot Mode

Boat Mode

G1 Scourge/Sweeps

Robot Mode

Space Ship/Hovercraft Mode

They are not far off from one another. I'm looking for a junker Thunderblast to use as a basis for this custom rt now. (my daughter begged till she could play with the one I had till I gave in, so she could play transformers with her brother, and now it "disappeared".) And from the looks of it someone could give Thunderblast a sex change to make a "classics" Scourge/Sweeps from her with work. Was wondering if anyone has done either mod yet? And if so could I get some pics and pointers on this project.

I haven't heard of female Sweeps before, just female Seekers. I've seen that mold used as an updated Scourge but the female idea works well - it seems to have a potential 'bust' chest.

As soon as i find where my daughter lost mine or get a replacement, i plan to start construction. I will post W.I.P. pics and write ups as it progresses :grin:

I bought an extra Thunderblast for the same reason, but never got around to it. Have there been many fanfic explainations for why she appears to have the matrix embedded in her chest? Well, when I put those 2 aspects of her appearance together, something dawned on me: If Scourge had kept the matrix past the end of The Burden Hardest To Bear and just continued mutating...is SHE what he'd have eventually turned into?

Hey, it tried turning Starscream "good" in the G2 comics, so maybe in the cartoon universe it worked had even more mysterious designs in mind...

I don't know about that, and I will be changing that little detail on mine filling on that part with putty and sanding it smooth. Same thing with the holes in the forearms. Then when I have her done ill be starting a Scourge to go along side her.
