Image the pics are bad its time for a new camera. any who trimmed and sanded the hands. sanded down the front of his upper leggs to make it flat instead of coming to a point. the head is from cybertron hotrod. hopefully i can get some better shots when he is done. the gun was borrowed from another megs. i am making the vehicle mode color sand because most of the in action vehicles would be in the middle east and sand colored.

the head is very similar to my barricade megs here but i left the new one with a little curve left so as to blend with the figureImage

I was actually planning on doing this once I got my hands on one. I am pleased to see some one else had the idea too.

cool im glad im not the only one who sees megatron in him. people seem split on it. i saw a pretty sweet one at tfans. they had mentioned cybertron galvatron colors being good colors. i have to admit those colors might be just what wreckage needs. i am going to graft two shoulder pads on him to box him up a little. i have already sanded down the top of his upper leggs. now i am going to do the sides to square them up too. and possibly lose the gut gun. i found my movie deluxes at kaybee.

I thought about it too. I was gonna use the Classics 2-pack Megs head, but I ended up painting him in traditionial green and making him an Autobot.

When I first saw that mold, I had a completely different character in mind for a custom. Believe it or not, I think it could make a good Elita-1, though you couldn't keep the top of the head visible in vehicle mode like the original character.

Gotta agree with you Tramp. I thought this and a couple of the others had a more "feminine" vibe to them. Maybe it's the slenderized bot modes.

Ya know, With the hips, and the tapered torso, it does look kind of girly.

Image i changed it today to rodimus but i think after adding bigger feet to him he would make a better magnus? the head tranman is from cybertron hotrod at least until now its my classics hotrod head that my son broke.

Interesting switcheroo there. I think it'd be better as Hot Rod than as Magnus, he just doesn't have the bulk. Although actually, the yellow chest makes me think of Springer.
