okay guys this is a joint effort between my brother and I... to show off the full spectrum of it's abilities I devised a massive pic strip no putty on the feet or stands or cunning string tricks nor even a hong kong wire team where used in this presentation of Alt Kickback

Image

the purple is vibrant but turned out very dark in the pics on this monitor at least

a simple size comparison of Kickback to an average Alt.

Image
sabotage vs. security

Image
sabotage wins "put down the gun...now"

Image
too slow old man....

Image
remember where I got my name?

Image
here's a hint!

Image
***CLANG***

Image
what's wrong prime no witty comeback

Image

Image

Image
DON'T!

Image
Prime's patented uppercut almost knocks Kickback down...the agile warrior takes offense to being bested

Image
GAH!

Image
I'll rip out your OPTICS!!!

Image
but first let's see what makes you tick...

Image
HAHAHAHAH!

Image
a series of corrosive oils pumped directly into a lasercore

Image
checkmat...what the...

Image
pathetic vermin!

Image
there's no escape...

Image
point and click

Image
BLAMMO!

Image
well done I'd say, the young are always tender

Image
YOINK!

Image
Swoop rescue!

Image
Damn... out of ammo


the convergance of mind and bodies

Dude you pulled it off with Kickback! Swoop is sweet too, love the head and colors.
You must show how you put it all together for Kickback. Very impressive!

I love Swoop, but Kickback is pure genius! The splicing of car parts fit perfectly!

Nice work, very nice. I especially like how the cricket mode actually looks something like a cricket. I never would have expected someone to have pulled that off. My only nitpick is that the original Kickback was a grasshopper.

Size mostly. Crickets are tiny, while Grasshoppers tend to get pretty big. Also Crickets do the chirping thing which I don't think Grasshoppers do. Sweet custom though.

Actually grasshoppers do the chirping thing, too. Any insect with those ridges on their legs does that. They do it by rubbing those 2 legs together. That and grasshoppers tend to be more green and crickets are black (or is it brown?). Crickets are also more beetle-like. >.>;

oh we had to find the last part of the chaos engine that Mok/Quickwart calls Alt. Kickback

the seemingly reason the Insecticons always seem to come back.. their diclones, core units that house the true persona of each of them

seen here as the Powermaster engine for Alt Kickback... enjoy

Dude! This custom was awesome enough, but the engine transforming? That's not something I expected and you did a great job too!

These look great! Kickback is the favorite of mine. My only critique of him is that the kitbashed car shell parts make the car itselt a bit odd. However, I see this as both negatively andpositively. The negative side is that the alt mode isn't a "stock" car; the positive is that the alt mode isn't a "stock" car, thus making the car mode itself a custom ride.

Again, great job man! VERY impressive!

Man, that Kickback is an amazing piece of work. The powermaster feature just blew me away.



(Also really liked the photo story)

Thanks

Quickwart and I both appreciate all your compliments and he scurried off muttering something about an idea to redoing the doors so they stand up in bot mode
