Ah. I thought he was directing it at this comment:

I swear, this man is a miracle worker and a genius. The stuff he comes up with, and what he has to work with is nothing short of phenomenal.

Like he thought I was against the idea of the Arcee figure. I was going to say, that wasn't the case, nor was I being sexist.

Your explanation makes more sense though. You'll have to forgive me, I've changed from being a nightowl to getting up in the mornings now. It's done nothing short of wreaked havoc on my system and mind. >_<

Like he said, it was just a joke about how a female is naturally a nurse rather than a doctor.

Your interpretation took some work though.

My interpretation came from painstaking work over many sleepless nights. (I.E. I haven't been sleeping well, brain shuts down, pieces of it work. I come up with these crazy posts.)

You too can be like me. Just...don't sleep. >_<

No. In Armada, Red Alert was an ambulatory vehicle.

Doesn't 'ambulatory' mean it can walk?

I didn't get that either.

Ambulanciary? Ambulantic? I don't think there's an adjective for "like an ambulance". If there is, don't tell me, I'll have to remember and the info might shove the memory of some of these gorgeous custom toys out of my head. The Headmasters combiner was cool, as were the triple-changers and Blaster. The Steeljaw that went with Cyb Blaster was bloody amazing though! I want!
Anyone notice Wolverine?

Believe it or not it's valid. the word Ambulance is from the "hôpital ambulant", which translates from french to english as "walking hospitol", which is that an ambulance is, a hospitol on the move.

2nd to last pic... who is the badass with the rocket on his shoulder?

News Credits: 49 · by **Scaleface** » Sun Oct 28, 2007 8:39 pm

That's just Cybertron Defense Red Alert. He was actually a bit of a Shelf Warmer in the US back when the Cybertron line was out.

Is Scuba a girl? I mean he was original a "male" Maximal in BW wasn't he? And this guy makes a custom of him and turns him into a chick. Great job, but just a little...wierd. Poor Scyllia.

Is that repainted Energon Arcee supposed to be Wolverine? :lol:

It is a rather fetching color scheme, though.

What's the base figure for that big chunky Arcee in the last pic?

It's a repaint of Armada Sideswipe with a custom head.

Now that's a literal description of an Autobot Medic.

Who's that red figure that looks like a catwoman? The one with white boobs.

News Credits: 49 · by **Scaleface** » Mon Oct 29, 2007 8:23 am

The red catwomanlooking one seems to be Cybertron Thunderblast with the wings removed and head remolded into a version of Beast Wars Scuba/Clawjaw.

Or maybe it's a non-Transformer figure?

But these boobs are square handles of the Matrix. While the catwoman bot has round boobs.

In case you're wondering, his repaints cover everything from G1/G2 (American and Japanese), to BW/BM (American and Japanese), to outside references and beyond.

Most of the repaints you see are of BWII/Neo. The one repainted Chromia/Thunderblast is supposed to be based off of the very rare, Japanese only Ikado Tank (looks like a giant Octopus/Squid).

If you're not familiar with Japanese TF toys, try and familiarize yourselves with them a bit, so you can at least figure out what he's making here. Believe me, I had to take a crash course in it myself. LOL

His Overlord is inspired, but doesn't quite cut it like the original G1 does.

...still, the man's incredible.

So, what does this violet girl transform into? Alt mode?

Not originally -- that's pretty clearly a custom repainting job. But oh wow, is it ever awesome!!!
