THEY ROCK!

I'm not 100% sure but they look like the hands from the robot stikfas. Could be wrong though.

Sorry, but no. Stikfas robot hand has ball joints between each nuckle, This one has hinge joints between the second nuckles and no joint at the third. Plus, Stikfas robot has the balls coming off the hand and the socket in the first section of the fingers, where this one has the oposite, balls coming off the fingers into sockets of the hands.

The strange thing about that pic is that, from the way Optimus Primal is positioned in the first pic, it looks like he has Darth Vader's helmet.

It's made from a GF Megalo Convoy (aka Cybertron Metroplex).

Wow! That is one awesome Runabout! I never imagined someone kitbashing that mold so extensively.

by **jimsloth** » Sun Apr 23, 2006 12:08 pm

yea, I'm really impressed with how they took two really crappy molds, put them together, and somehow managed to get one good looking fig out of it.

I posted info abou the contest over there and went to google to try and translate the text to the best of my ability.

I hope to see a few of their customs over here entered into the contest and if not at the very least possibly pull some of those great artists over there to hear and possibly post some of their work.

It's kinda cool. After translating their responces on google.com it seems that although they think it sucks that it's hard to translate between english and Japanese they actually mention that it's a cool fact that people across the ocean (Us) have a great love for this hobby as much as they do.

It's flattering.

I really do hope to see a few of them end up over here and post some pics.

that skids confuses me to no end. Where the hell did that idea come from? Who is it supposed to be referencing? Is there a reference at all? Is it a headmaster, since the little guy can only turn into a head and the big bot is only a vehical without him? And whats with the armada hoist overdrive combo next to him? Someone enlighten me.

it's cybertron defense/vanguard skids i think. and why wouldn't you get overdrive's head on hoist? must there be a reason to 'bash? maybe the guy thought it'd look nice.

twincast, yeah thanks.

That Shockwave is pretty cool

Wonder if it lights up?

by **wldchld0783_338** » Thu May 11, 2006 8:53 am

dear god are those japanese kitbashers over there awsome. that shockwave looks better than the original toy proportionally speaking. I wish takara/tomy would produce something like that. Heck, I hope the Neo Shockwave looks like that. I think hes in there somewhere anyway....
