Hi there everyone.

Casual Transformers fan and Hardcore building block enthusiast here. Recently got into the awesome Kreo sets and I love the Kreons, so much charm to these little guys. That said I always wanted some highly detailed transformers minifigs. So I took a couple of Mega bloks figures, clay, a dremel and alot of patience and slammed them together and this was the result.

Here we have my TF Prime Optimus and Bumblebee and....wait, sorry thats the wrong pic. This was my first attempt and is vastly obsolete now. Let me fix it.

Image
Not much of an update, just redid his limbs.

Prime is where its at, sporting the biggest change. Completely redid everything on him. Tried to get as much detail as possible. I love the TFP asthetic. I tried my best to capture the sleek form of the character model. The hardest part was the new legs but I feel I pulled it off.

These 2 are still a WIP since they need painting. I plan to get these casted so I can retool Optimus into Ultra Magnus. In the meantime, I'll be working on Megatron :D

Sorry if This is in the wrong place. just thought You transformer fans might enjoy them.

These are freaking awesome man! I love them, especially that V2 Optimus. Nice use of an Ironman head :D

Ages ago I had suggested how awesome it would have been to have the Halo MB sculpters take a stab at the Prime line on the MB FB page and was basically laughed at :(
This justifies that it would have been awesome.

Now I understand your interest in my Action Formers line ^__^

Neat! Those look like they take a lot of painstaking work to mold clay at that level.
