A RAM?! That's intriguing, to say the least, and certainly unexpected. Nice idea. 8)

Is he going to get hydrofoils? :wink:

ummm...no to the hydrofoils;however i am considering adding the back cannons..hey ram what were you expecting him to be?

I have no idea, to be honest, nor am I sure why I was quite as surprised as I was. But for some reason I was particularly not expecting that.

That probably makes no sense at all. I know I don't understand it. :P

Actually, thinking about it, Cyb. Unicron might be an interesting one... :wink:

unicron.....now i really would never have considered him,bw snapper is actually on my list for a snaptrap upgrade as well as gatortron as skullcruncher

now that i am thinking about it i might do the bw halfshell too as alternator and i will keep the unicron idea in mind

i guess this could turn out pritty well, snaptrap on wheels is a cool idea i always wanted to do a set of seacons out of boats and subs,

dunno if it would help but took a comparison pic of the heads

should the truck body have two tone on the paint job or relegate the pink to the robot body?

I'm baffled - what's with all these votes for neon pink eyes?

Was he a G2 Autobot all this time, and nobody told me? :?

i made the suggestion because i think it would be interesting possibility,i mean look at optimus prime;he has red,yellow,and blue

Oh no, fair play for suggesting it. What surprises me is that it's winning the poll!

Neon pink is just going to look like faded red when it's actually applied to his eyes. Stick with what has already been done and your finished project will look more recognizable in the end. My opinion only.

thanks man am looking forward to seeing how yours comes out i gotta sort out the turn area underneath the bonnet. Are you going to make the duel cannons for him as they could mount on the rear legs.

i am still debating the back cannons

you could use the cannons from a g1 snap trap Cut down the Sides then it could work as thats what i have done

hey,erb,how does the mustang transform into the turtle mode

PostPosted: Wed Feb 28, 2007 8:15 am
by evilratbat
good question
with the turtle mode you put the figure forward then the beast head comes through the bonnet the legs are twisted 180 and then put in a l shape will take some pics later for you

at the moment am reworking the Section in the Figure And will be Cutting the Bonnet Section so that the beast head comes through the bonnet. will take some pics when i figure out where i put the camera this week
