Ideal for Hallowe'en at the end of this month - a decepticon dressed in a skeleton costume! :wink:

I've started work on a decently poseable rendering of this popular Decepticon Pretender's famous outer shell. Expect to see 'in progress' images as time passes.

Let me guess, ML Ghost Rider as the base?

Not quite - it's the smaller version from that 'Superhero Showdown' (or something similar) series. :wink:

He has a poseable head on a skeletal neck.

Interesting - looks like MOTU figures were used as a base.

The magic of the crystal ball, eh? :wink:

Glad you like it so far.

now if only that figure could fit inside an exosuit style tank transformer to completely confuse the whole pretender thing.

that would just make it an ultra pretender like roadblock!

Ah, the irony

...perhaps I will, purely for the comedy value.

Here's the second pic, showing some extra details on the torso, skirt armour and the start of the lower leg armour.

I like this guy so much. I love how the sholder and thigh pads are squared off but with chamfered corners. His back is very cool aswell, looks like a bug. I really want to see this guy in a tank suit for some reason.

If I ever find an appropriate tank model you'll be the first to know

Glad you like him

...and he's painted...

Just a 'laid on the scanner' image - I'll replace it with some proper photography when I get some batteries for my camera
