The Energon Pub

I got Fall of Cybertron the other day, and I've gotten completely hooked on the multiplayer, although probably not in the way the developers intended- I love making custom characters.

It started off that I wanted to make Prowl, but I can't find a decent head (any suggestions?), so I decided to try my hand at some Beast Wars characters (before they got their beast modes, anyway).

So far I've managed to make a pretty decent Optimus Primal (using Air Raid's big gorilla-like arms and Starscream's body- the toy I linked to has him transforming into a car, but I figure that he's one of the only flight-capable Maximals, so...) and a pretty okay Rattrap, just without the exposed brain.

And, obviously once the Dinobot DLC comes out I'll be able to make a perfect Beast Wars Megatron.

Has anyone else played around with character customisation? If so, what other possible Transformers can you come up with?

Moved to video game forum

Ah, sorry. All I saw were the General forum, the Cartoons/Comics, Toys, Live Action and Video ones. Had no idea there was a video game forum.

not spot on by any means, but I've a tank dude, that in Autobot colours is pretty like Fort Max, and is a passable Scorponok in 'Con colours. If I could give them different heads I'd be sorted.

Also have one bot that's meant to look like Steel Core, another that's more like Motor Master (using Magnus' vehicle mode) and going to try my hand at Spinister or Springer as a helicopter later.

I've been trying to make Scorponok! What parts did you use?

I tend to make custom characters myself, and make up backstories and stuff for them, because y'know, what could be nerdier.

Although I did make a pretty awesome Turmoil, and one or two characters based on a Vehicon and on those background Decepticons from the campaign.
