Welcome, peoples of the Interwebs, here are more of my Mini Models. This batch is a variety of G1 Minibots with a few G1 Megatron repaints tossed in. I'm hoping to get through the G1 models I've done in the next few weeks so I can move on to different series, and there are some that I really want to show you after G1 is done :DANCE:

(feel free to guess) :-P

Lol sorry I'm not very knowledgeable on G1 repaints. Cool designs! Isn't the black Megatron from the Marvel comics?

Not quite sure where he is from, all I know is that he was an e-Hobby exclusive repaint of the mold so I made him, but according to the TFwiki he is an homage to the original Microman figure he could have been in the comics though. :???:

Megs had a black helmet in the Marvel comics because their artwork was based on early pre-production art for the cartoon, which gave him a black helmet for some reason.

Welcome, peoples of the Interwebs, here are more of my Mini Models. This batch is the first of the the final three batches of G1 models :DANCE:

. Now this doesn't mean I'll stop making or posting G1 models, they will just be less frequent and not the focus of these posts, probably mixed in with models from other toylines. I'm really excited to move on from G1 as I felt it was a good starting point as it was something many people knew but I don't think they are my some of my best(don't get me wrong though,I really like some of them {cough cough "Powerglide" cough cough"). After that monologue, here is the start of the final 28 G1's (for now.

Welcome, peoples of the Interwebs, here are more of my Mini Models. This batch is the second of the the final three batches of G1 models, as well as the last one with individual bots. As I have said before the G1 models aren't gone, especially since there is still a lot more to make, they will just be less frequent. I am extremely excited to move on from G1 and onto something a bit more creative, but anyways here is the second to last batch of G1's.

Welcome, peoples of the Interwebs, here are more of my Mini Models. This batch is the final batch of G1 models. This is probably my favorite batch of the final three and as I have said before the G1 models aren't gone, especially since there is still a lot more to make, they will just be less frequent. I am extremely excited to move on from G1 and onto something a bit more creative, but anyways here is the final batch of G1's: Guard City and Ultra Magnus.

Is Guard City from Diaclone?

SillySpringer wrote:Is Guard City from Diaclone?

No, he is from a Japanese comic/manga series, called Operation Combination, that was published in a Japanese magazine. It was only nine part and was the final piece of media produced for G1 in Japan. He is a straight repaint of Defensor and some aren't even changed that much. His arch nemesis was Battle Gaia, a straight repaint of Bruticus. If you want to learn more just look him up on TFwiki. that is where all this info is from.

Hoping to post some more by the end of the week, and they will be more "original-ish" then straight G1 models.

Maybe some FoC/WFC models or IDW models? That'd be awesome!

Actually if you did a G1 Predaking that'd be SWEET. =3 Just a few cool ideas.

I have actually done some models from WFC/FoC, No IDW or Predaking yet. Either tomorrow or Saturday I want to post the first batch of what I have dubbed "Generation M". It an idea that I had and is turning out really well so far. :-D

Nice! Looking forward to it!

Welcome, peoples of the Interwebs,to GENERATION M.

Generation M was an idea I had in witch I take models I've made from that are based on the movie toys, and repaint them into their G1 counterparts or other G1 characters. I would also like to do characters from the comics or television show that didn't have toys, but I don't have a list of those characters or how many there are :HEADHURTS:

, so if you know of some then please feel free to let me know. I know it is not the most original idea but I really like how they are turning out and this is only mark 1, after I finish the repaints I would like to create custom versions of the characters using parts from different versions of the character(combining G1, classics, different movie .etc models together) and eventually add vehicle modes. Who knows at some point maybe they will transform without parts forming.

But without further adieu, here is the first batch(btw the batches will be smaller as I want to show the backs as well.

).

MAN Optimus looks awesome!!! He looks like an official set or something! That's really accurate for a small Lego model!

Thanks

. It is a repainted model of the ROTF Leader Optimus Prime, with the trailer I made for the G1( I'll do a separate post on it). In case any one is curious Megatron's base is DOTM Voyager Megs, Starscream's base is Leader Starscream, and Jazz's base is Human Alliance Jazz.

so... over the past few months the servers crashed... and I lost pretty much all of my pictures :-(

(RIP). so instead of reposting them here I'm just going to make an entirely new post, with new pictures and they will also no longer be on the siebertron servers, so if the severs crash again then the pictures wont be lost.
