I saw this guy in Walmart and I couldn't resist the urge to change him into Brawn. (That and the fact that I got him for $5 cause he was missing his planet key :lol:

) So here's how he ended up.

He still probably needs some touch up here and there and I think I'm gonna paint the tires flat black for more realism

Not bad. My onloy suggestion would be a new head sculpt to more closely match Brawn?s; particularly the helmet.

I dunno. Maybe it just needs to be framed properly. I don't know though, that might not look right.

Brawn! The coolest of all mini-bots. "Nobody's calling me a robot chicken!"

Yeah I thought about that but his head becomes part of the spare tire, and I was too lazy to try and sculpt a heat that would be more G1

To bad Brawn has such a fat face or you could just shave them both off and swap it out!

I was thinking about making the a similar custom. I wanted to make an arm mod though. My problem was i couldn't get the torso apart. Any similar problems on your end or did you just paint th chest while assembled?

Yeah everything is held together with pins except for the lower legs so I just painted the chest while assembled. The arms on him are pretty retarded you can get them to do some good poses but I increased they're mobility slightly by shaving some plastic off so it would rotate better on the ball joint
