Yes. All the white pieces in the earlier pics are the GTO model kit.

What a bargain! Last 1/32 scale model kit i bought didnt even have an engine block. Then again it was a supposedly rare vw beetle kit but still...

The model kit is 1:24 scale. This figure stands at about 10 inches tall.

BTW, here's a preview of the next TF figure I'm working on. It will be in the movie bot style but with lots of G1 visual cues.

Having a good time working on this guy. Challenging but fun.

Nope. Look closer at the shapes in the legs.

I do have a Brawn planned though. Land Rover.

Is the alt mode a Humvee???
Or is that just so the robot mode looks right?

It's not a constructicon is it?

The alt mode is a Military Humvee. He is not a Constructicon.

I was thinking that but considering the last one was Movie Swindle I didn't think he would... Especially as this ones being done in movie style too...

Woot, 400th post!!!

Ok, after looking through the G1 toy list I have no idea who this is... I give up...

Really? Giving up too easily, me thinks. OK, he's '84 G1 Con. Narrows it down quite a bit.

Woot, nice one. How you going to do the chest though?
Thats what put me off him, It looks alot more humanoid than his usual typical-robotic forms.

Well I can't wait to see how he turns out. It seems I'll be following this thread for a while.

You should paint lego men to make little Rumble & Frenzy for him

I guess I should have just posted a cropped pic then. With just the legs. Sorry I confused you. Nothing has been done to the chest yet. The legs are the only part in any stage of being completed. The chest at this point is only the lego skeleton that will be covered by the many humvee parts to come.

Since you guessed right, I'll probably start a new Soundwave thread the next time I post an update.
