G1 style UNICRON custom... fully transformable and made to look as close to cartoon ver as I could

Postby dat70sdude » Thu Apr 05, 2012 1:54 pm

Hi all,

I'm an old TF fan with an unfortunate dwindling passion as we go through different phases in life >:oP
Just sharing one of my customs I'd done when I was at my full-on TF craze phase...
A Unicron custom made out of a SW TF Darth Vader.
Chose this mold as it could transform into a perfect sphere which best represents Unicron's planet mode rather than the Armada toy I had then... didn't like the fact that the Armada Unicron wasn't a full fledged ball of a planet.
Anyway, here's a couple of old pics of the toy (which no longer resides with me :-( ).

More pics can be seen at my old blog http://dat70sdude.blogspot.com.au/ with pics on how I made this bot.

He's up for auction now over here... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ws/eBayISAPI ... 0852322142

Being informed that this bot is now on Ebay brought fond memories of the whole customising process and I'd just like to share this custom with all before it disappears again! :D

Welcome. That is amazing work! Missibg it's planet rings, but that's still the most perfect unicron I've ever seen created! Especially from that mold.

Flippin awesome!
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

Thanks! I've been working on another custom but other life priorities have only dragged the process by months! :lol:

Weapon: Switch Blade Tail
Wow.

Amazing work. It's kinda crazy how much better THAT mold works for the character than the previous offerings. As stated previously, it's missing the rings, but that could be an easy addition. As for the robot/planet itself? :APPLAUSE:

Hasbro? Take note. THIS is how you do Unicron.
