My favorite too. But, only because Brawl didn't get extra shoulder articulation. (I had a Brawl, when I was a kid. I'm kind of partial to him.)

I hope you realize that now everyone is going to want to see each combiner team get devastated.

Damn, these are all great! I love when the old ones are customized into something this good. Makes you wish they were designed this way from the beginning.

I will kill to own the four of them, but I like this one the most too.

Most of the joints came from Mini-cons. I had a small stockpile of them I had amassed in anticipation of this project. For Screemer, it was the same deal. His shoulders and upper thighs came from the Mini-con jet that transforms into a claw. His elbows came from the space mini-con satellite. His lower thighs came from an Energon Saber Mini-con, and his waist came from the Space Mini-con truck.

That's okay, I'd like to see the same! I'm sure I could do them all, but right now I'm not sure what my next project will be.

Man these are awsome... Are you going to have these at the Botcon? That is if you are going. I wish Hasbro would actually do something like this for the classics line

Computron is probably who I'd want to do next. Him and Predaking are the last two gestalts I haven't done that I think are totally kickass. SOmeone else was working on a Predaking so I'm probably not going to do him. We'll see what the future holds.
Yes, these Combaticons and another project will be at the convention this year.
Here's a list of most of the paints I used:
sky/light blue
blue
dark blue
white
black
light gray
gray
dark gray
red
dark red
clear red
light brown
brown
light purple
purple
yellow
maze/dark yellow
dark orange
custom olive green
gold
silver
Some of the colors I did some aditional customizing with, but that's pretty much a complete list.
If, God forbid, you were ever not married Hobbyist Prime, you can give me a call

Bruticus is up!

Ya know, if you hate Minicon's so much... I can always take them off your hands.

Hehe, nah, I really like most of the mini-cons. It really pains me to cut them up for my projects, but they just so perfect for what I do.
