Chubby with one arm undersized, that is not a "cute" minicon.
I didn't know about his mechanical abilities to drill while pushed.

Sorry about the delay on this one.

Welcome to day 7 of the minicon advent calender ressurected from page 2.
Hope you enjoy your next minicon treat.

Japanese Store exclusive again and its a special repaint of the land military team.
Introducing Bonecrusher - cos he crushes bones apparantly
Japanese name makes a lot more sense: Bomb, given that hes loaded with explosives seems more fitting
Image
Yeah im sure that name made a lot of sense back on cybertron

Alt mode is a missle truck and is quite similar to the energon construction maximus limb.
Image
Image
Image

This guys got an elbow
impressive for a minicon
Image

Packing firepower to boot
Image

Image

And obligatory awesome pose!
Image


Thanks for dropping by therell be more for you tomorrow.

Comments or complaints will be accepted gladly! :P

I like the colors on this one, they're bold without being repulsive, but the design doesn't do much for me. i'm not really into the missile firing minicons, but yeah, the elbow is a pretty nice touch.

If you just cut the fingers off now, then no one will have any thing to compare them too :HEADHURTS:

I am surprised you got him to balance like that.

Given that its after midnight here in the uk would you guys like the net minicon now or should i post in the morning?
Its probably too close together for the two really so ill leave it.

Overcracker your dead on ad i didnt eve realise it myself id give you a cookie if i wasnt currently trying to purge the image of that unholy embace tht caused this bizarre love-childfrom my mind.

Bonecrusher ballances very well thanks energon cube good shaped flat feet and a the cannon arm provides a good counterweight.
Also i am keeping my fingers i need them for transforming things among other uses

'Tis true, it is the love child of Triklops and Trapjaw. I heard they were registered at Target for both the wedding and the baby shower.

YAAAAAAAAAARRRR MATEYS

Its the eigth revolution of the earth since this caleder started.

Might be a tad early for those across the wide and expansive atlantic but today ivegot work and then the office xmas party so no chance of it being posted later.


Another minicon you say

Ocean glide i retort.
Image

Oky pretty much the first minicon that hasnt been japanese. This one was part of th unicron battles assortment denounce i for not beng a rare as the others if you like but i love the colorscheme and it was one i had to go to lengths to tack i down given as it was never released in the UK

Image

TH solar sail on oceanglide has full rotation and up and down movement as well a housing the misile launcher.

Image
Image
And dude - its a ship with flames on it doesnt ave to make sense to be cool!

Image
Very strange head on the robot mode im not sure what it reminds me of but if anyne can come up with something insprired (like trilops yesterday!) they in an energon cookie.

Awesome spe sexy pose sequence initiate now (been watching too much perfect hair)
Image

the sea teams bio links them heavily with the decepticons and tidal wave in particular. Oceanglide is the leader of this vicious bunch of pirates who tech specs state their motto is:
"These small few know the triumph of vicious intent!"
SO while most minicon teams had an ambigous nature operating as a 3rd faction theres no question as to where these nautical villians intentions lie.
Also pirates - pirates are awesome


Comments, requests, death threats, praise, critism and random incomprehensible jibberish are all welcome here if you want to contribute
see you later everyone wih minicon number 9

He does remind me of Powerglide.

I never did pickup the sea team, always found them kind of weird, but this guy looks awesome in flames. Guess now we know where Movie Prime got his awesome deco.

Pretty Nifty.


Ohh, and apologies to megadave and anybody who pictured the moment of conception of minicon number 7.

Skeletors gift was I believe an evil Ram skull tip for the little guy's rocket arm.

I think if pikachu was a robot, he would have that face with the red spots on his cheek and all.
I agree with the above post that it does look like the he-man face also.

Minicon frenzy on the boards it seems.

Welcome to day 9 - where are the days going? unicron eating them.

As Xmas approaches and i make preperations in the nuclear bunker designed to keep out the robot santa i think another minicon is in order dont you?





This has to be one of the most Unfortunatly named minicons ever!

Introducing from micron booster voloume 3
Image
Hi my name is PLUG

Seriously plug

Image

i think the white realy shows up the details in the sculpt well on this minicon.

Image

Plug was origonally blind packed meaning you didnt know what minicon in the assortment youd be getting in the box.

Image

for a minicon, as on all of the stree speed team, robot mode details are hidded pretty well in alt mode do to the innovative and origonal transformations they use.

Image


Robot mode is excelent on plug Very poseable!
Image

He can even do the robot
Image


Accidental but cool picture of a pose he adopted when i knocked the desk
Image

The whole team is excelent and one of my favorite sets of minicon molds. I have the micron legend Dvd volume one exclusive super stunt team on its way to me which should hopefully arrive before xmas
Cant wait to get it because i love the linkage comic. A comic from the minicons perspective that is actually alot more in depth and mature than the armada series actually was.
This set of molds feature heavily in it and is definatly worth checking out.

Hope the calender continues to live up to your expectations.

Tomorrow being Day 10 means a specail extended gallery again.
Hope you come back and check it out.


Any comments, questions, observations, if swerve can come up ith another he-man reference, complaints or gifts( :P ) are welcome please feel free to contribute opinions!


EDIT - made a little mistake and to clarify this minicon is not a repaint of the street action team from armada but infact a repaint of the cybertron Remolds with more futuristic sculpt in veicle mode.

Glad i cleared that up i would have let that one go but plug was staring at me and letting the knowledge i was misleading people knaw away at my soul. Damn that plug
