I wanted to do one of the background Seekers from the pilot, so I took some spares, painted them blue and aluminum, added Reprolabels stripes and sigils, and scratchbuilt a pair of guns. Since they were all unnamed, I call this one Slipstream.

Nice job but it leaves one question: do you consider it a female?

Nifty but Slipstream should have Purple on her chest not silver. Wings and Legs are about spot on as you can for the original mold.

Hnn, I haven't done a backstory on this one, so I've never really though about it.
It seemed like all the Seekers were male.

You have unknowingly recreated the lone Female Seeker in G1 form.

Then you, my friend, are a prophet.

However seeing that her first appearance was June 2008, It is easily possible that she was dreamed up for the show in late '06 - early '07 regardless.
