I haven't posted here in a loooooooooooooooooooong time!

Regretfully...life, boredom, and new ventures took me out of the kitbashing game. Since then I have watched others make some incredibly creative kitbashes...and have always meant to return...but I just couldn't regain that "spark" of creativity.

I used this custom to play a trick on some of the other message boards...I had them thinking I was making a G1 Frenzy out of Rumble, but hopefully this guy doesn't disappoint you guys too much:

Hope everyone likes him, and thanks for looking!

He he.. and nice job on the con, too, you sneaky get! :lol:

wow, didn't see that one coming. I like the new arms. And the chest. And the head on that body.

I'll be damned. Back from the dead, and look what you come up with.

And yeah, you had me fooled too. Didn't see this one a mile away. You brought justice to the character, and I think he fits in well with the others you've created. Excellent job.

And I love the fact that the head is the same.

That is a nice job. The mods you've done really help make the bot look less clunky.

My Rumbles should be tomorrow, so I haven't had any first-hand experience with the mold yet, but I too have extra Vipers that I'm going to take the hands from for this mold.

I was going to install them in the trunk and have the arms rotate 180 to use the hands, but I like the mod you've done (obviously since Sideswipe doesn't have pile drivers, it's a bit simpler). Did you have to make any pieces to fit the arms in, or do they just clip on where the pile drivers go?
