The Energon Pub

Hello again, all. Morgan's hand painting minicons again, prepare to be afraid.

So, I aquired an Arms Micron Mantis guy for a project to be posted later, and he was sold in a lot with a clear blue Ozu. Gee, what to do with an elephant? Top Heavy? Nah, there's actually a rhino micron... i know, let's do a search online.

So, who the heck is Shuffler, anyway? Well, in Japan, Takara sold booster packs of Headmasters that turned into nebulans and animals and things. Extralittle head guysn one of them, was an elephant called Shuffler, and is now a $500 brick of plastic for the genuine article.

Well, i have no love for Headmasters, but i do love paint. So, an eavening, two cans of Rustoleum, one Ambriege and another a pinkish color,and some cheap-o Meijer acrylics for detail, and voila'! One obscure elephant gun.

Must admit, had I understood better how Ozu went together, I would hve painted things differently. The slide barrel is extremely stiff and tacky, no clearence and too much paint. And had I a redo, i might've gotten w second can of rattlepaint, the light pink should be more lavender, but it looks good and for no biggrr than Shuffler is, I really don't mind. So now all I have to do is figure out what team to pair him with.Prime? Jazz's Spec Ops? Some Wreckers?

Enjoy!
