you really think he look like jazz, maybe i should put an alternators jazz head on this kitbash!

He could work as Jazz yeah, but I mainly mentioned it because there are rumors that point out he's going to be a Pontiac GTO.

I'm thinking a Throttlebot; either Chase or Freeway, probably. Especially considering how much your first reshell looked like Searchlight, and Rollbar's seen release (albeit in a funny colourscheme), maybe an Alt Throttlebot team is in order?

Sorry for the late reply.
I'm glad that you don't seem to hate my suggestions. :wink:

I'd go for Runabout personally, but I guess it would also work as a throttlebot as others have suggested. Are those front doors intended to have a folding mechanism later on btw?
They look kinda cool in sideview as they are.

yeah your right, but the feet would look to long, i made some modification
man wait until you see the final result!!! i am impressed with myself!!! :twisted:

Alternator Kup?

i rather go with the majority and they say that he look more like alt. Runamuck/Runabout, so i will stick with that

by **TM 1987olds442** » Mon Aug 21, 2006 10:04 pm

I think that Runamuck would be a fitting name for this character since the original G1 Runamuck was a Pontiac Trans Am. A Pontiac GTO would be a fitting upgrade for the character.

well that different, i figured you where going to fold them behind the legs like the suburu and rx-8, although im really humbled by your skill.

by **alpha_alternator** » Sun Aug 27, 2006 11:52 am

hey what do humbled mean ?

by **incecticons forever** » Sun Aug 27, 2006 12:04 pm

Showing deferential or submissive respect. ive tried and failed to reshell two differedt alts. the first looked awsome but didnt transform, the other i cut the body wrong on the car so i scraped the project.

Looks good AA....any pics in car mode?

by **Ramrider** » Mon Aug 28, 2006 4:26 am

Nice gun there, too. Gundam?

by **Dark_Fool** » Mon Aug 28, 2006 7:07 am

Runamuck's a good choice, going to make a runabout too?

by **alpha_alternator** » Mon Aug 28, 2006 9:24 am

i like the head that i used but i paid for a cybertron toys just for the head!!!... that wrong ahahha

yes this is a gundam gun also!

i am not sure if i am going to make runabout... maybe my next reshell

PK; i could transform him into the car (partially) but i do not have enought pieces to complete the transformation

i hope you like guy like this custom i made!

That was exactly my point. I half expected somebody to mention those.

It's going to be one of the best alternator bashes of the year if I may express my opinion.

Uhm, I guess you might make more cash on ebay if a lot of kb-fans come along, but why not put it up for auction here first? More fans and no ebay-rates make it a better option, eh?
Man, I'd love to have this one (as well as a similar bash of runabout), but I gues my bids'd be snowed under before long.

Of course, a strong argument against selling is that it might be too hard to give up this kick-ass kitbash. :twisted:

by **Broadblasts short shorts** » Wed Sep 06, 2006 6:16 am

i cant believe how clean that is!!! all your reshells are really great, wish i was that clinical.

by **alpha_alternator** » Wed Sep 06, 2006 9:21 pm

wow i appeciated all the comment

i just add small spring to the kitbash for the car suspension, they look nice !!!

also
i can make 3 same custom
the problem is, i do not have anymore ATL. grimlock and i won't have anymore spare head( but i can solve this problem, it's just that i will make the kitbash more expensive

if anybody interested, please PM me
i will take only 3 order!( 3 highest bidder will be the winner)
if not, i will sell it on ebay!
