G1 Bumblebee!

This is my very first kitbash, so go easy on me. He doesn't transform.
He's made out of an RX-71..no..wait...RX-78 2 Gundam action figure, a Reissue Bumblebee keychain, expoxy repair strips, hot glue, sliver, black, and yellow paint.

Pretty cool, like a better version of the action masters...

Though those pictures where his back is to the camera really makes him look like he's depressed and comtemplating jumping.

Motto: "May God have mercy on my enemies, because I sure as hell won't."
Some of the molding is a little weird.

Also, it's RX-78-2 Gundam. I've never even heard of RX-71.

Yeah...whatever Gundam it was, it worked out. That yellow paint was an ass to work with and it took a good 5 or so coats of the stuff to actually get the color I was looking for. The moulding on the legs is kind of weird, it doesn't even look all that mechanical, but more of like lumpy armor. I need to take GrimSqueaker's advice and work with the expoxy in layers and use actual tools, seeing as how the moulding was worked from using only my hands. If I can some some expoxy, I'll try and make another bot...or Con.

Another Action Master most likely. :P
