This is not really what I would call done. I've had this guy half painted sitting on my desk sence probly I first joined onto this site. I got tired of seeing the Orange parts from Rodimus so I got lazy and colored them black insted of the silver/grey as shown in his cartoon images.

Not high quality photos but here they are.

In case you're wandering the model in the backround is for the set of "Plaid Tidings" SRT was trowing it out after that show ended so I took it.

Robot Mode

Yea there is still some orange showing. I can't get to thoughs parts without taking him apart.

The head is from the Delux Armada Optimus Prime and the sword is from RID Scourge.

Powerlink Fire Grand (Actully Inferno but I renamed him.)

Don't know what the point of holding a sword is when you have a canon on your arm and 2 more on your back but it looks cool. :mrgreen:

Somebody help me, my arms are too freaking fat, I can't move my legs, and I still don't know why I have this sword when I have 3 cannons.

That looks pretty good. And I like your sig, btw. You should try something like this with Classics Rodimus and either normal classics Prime or deluxe Classics Prime's head.

That's nice! I have Rodimus, Inferno, and deluxe prime, and I actually tried out that very combination!

To blast opponents from a distance then move in for a nice melee style kill of course! :grin:

He looks good dude! Make sure when you do finish him you get some higher quality pics so we (well I and my dodgy eyesight :P ) can make out the details better.

The way Saber Prime was born, I wanted to make my own version of Optimus Prime but have him in Flames like Rodimus and of course he had to be a Truck so Energon Rodimus was a perfect fit. Then the movie had to go and do the same damn thing but we all know I've had my sig longer than that movie's been around. (Or at least the ones who have been here and known me before the movie do)

Anyway my point being is I don't really have any intention on doing a "Classics" Saber Prime.

Burn, sorry about the picture quality, I know they suck. Problem is I don't know if it's the camera just being crappy or my eyes not being able to focus the camera, or both, my eyes not being able to focus a crappy camera. :lol:

I'll finish him when I can actully find the proper color paint for the black bits. They should really be silver. I'm thinking about switching out the sword he's currently holding for the Star Saber Mini-con team. They don't hold togeather verry well though.

The mini-cons might be a wee bit too big for him I feel.

If you're looking for a good sword though, check out the cheap shops and in particular, their dodgy little ninja sets.

Though swords ARE hard to come by, especially ones that work with TF's.
