Well I've started a kitbash to create a Classics Motormaster. As of yet I just have this here concept pic and my rodimus -head and arms. I don't know what I'm going to use for the cab yet as it will become his arms and head (if all goes well). Anyway just thought this looked bada$$ on paper and figured if anyone else wanted to do it b-4 I did that would be cool too.

looks pretty good. trailer might be a bit small though.

Yeah like I said it's just a concept. We'll see how it pans out. I've already disected rodimus and I'm going to primer and paint tomarrow.

Well, Rodimus does that already, so you've certainly got a head start...

Whoops I meant the trailer. IDK what I'm going to use for the trailer. I want him to really be Motormaster otherwise it's just a repaint *blah*

Souns touh, bt I'd love to see the finished product.
Motormaster's been ignored in ofiicial TF history for a while. Not a lot of 'bashes either.

Sweet, I can just picture the robot mode, hehe. MM would have pretty big feet

True, Rodimus had big feet tho and it looked ok. I just need to find the right cab. I'm going to all my resale stores today to look for something I can work with for the trailer. THAT will be the tough part.

I just had a thought; are the cab and trailer going to be permanently connected, or will they separate and recombine? The bottom of Rodimus' torso mode is inside in truck form.

Of course, if you used the recombine method, you might be able to salvage the Powerlinx port from a junker 'bot and install that into the trailer for its 'pants' mode.

Another thought is that since I'm assuming the cab itself won't have its own robot mode any more, you should be able to give him proper robot arms and hands instead of the bricky moulded ones he has already.
