Ok, well I haven't come up with a name for him quite yet and I'm still working on a color scheme, but here is a "little" project I've been working on for about the last week.

While going through my collection and looking at the stuff I can thin out from it, I came across my Terrodive figure missing one of the jet nose sides/claws. Got thinking "Now what am I going to do with this" when it hit me. If you turn him over and remove the wings he kind of looks like a targetmaster gun. So I started cutting, gluing, and sanding. Removed the head and added a ball joint in the neck, added articulation to the shoulders, and gave him articulated elbows.

What I start with.

The new arms(well one of them anyway).
Image

Ball socket in place.
Image

Modified head.

Showing the head articulation.

Improved articulation in all its glory.

After a long aggravating process, I finally came up with a weapon barrel system that both looked good to me and didn't interfere with the transformation.

Pretty much done at this point.

He is going to be a partner for Nemesis Prime, but he isn't here yet so Optimus is standing in for now,

but he is a Decepticon threw and threw.

Nicely done! I see you also cannibalized a Gunbarrel to make the elbow joints.
