Masterforce Overlord

A very costly and time consuming project that spanned from August 2010 till now.

Masterforce Overlord. Here are some key features of Masterforce Overlord.

- 5 modes. Tank, Jet, Tank+Jet, Base and Robot mode.

- Heavily modified Armade Tidalwave fitted with tank treads from ROTF Bludgeon

- Scratchbuilt thighs

- Articulated fists

-Waists were from ROTF Jetfire and modified to fit Armada Tidalwave. Are able to rotate 360 degrees

- Leds with built in power supply in Lord Giga's tank, Lord Mega's Jet fuselage as well as in Overlord's head.

- Masterforce Overlord's head has 360 degrees movement

- The original Lord Giga and Lord Mega and ramp (for base mode) were used for Masterforce Overlord's construction. Expensive yes. But nostalgic.

- Finished with Starburst Mystique Metallics and panel marked to perfection.

He will be hitting eBay in a few hours time. One and only. I'm really too drained to do another similar one up. Thanks for all the support guys.

WOW! Pretty amazing custom, why hasn't anyone else responded? o_O

I'd been watching it on TFW for a while(despite still not having an account there) and now that it's done it just looks great.

I like the face choice because it kinda makes him look less...insane than he's pictured in comics and stuff. The paint's also really smooth and shiny.

Awesome custom, guessing this one will be the next "transtopia masterclass" thing Seibertron does every now and again.

Hmmm...I suppose people at Seibertron aren't into customs? In any case, really glad that you appreciate the custom. Thanks once again!

I love Armada Tidalwave like Blurrz loves his alternate in Armada, and you have my premission to do that to that mold.... I mean GPOW ;)

Great Piece of Work!

(Sorry about not commenting earlier, the fall of the monthly newsletter which was the reason I looked through all the work put up and commented has left me forgeting about the forums, although I should always have a quick look when I can)

The Primus head mold looks good as an updated Overlord head.

I really like what was done here. The orange cockpit throws things off a little for me, but it is a spectacular piece, one I would love to own.

Great work! I really enjoyed it, and thanks for sharing.

This is an absolutely wonderful custom, and I too am sorry I didn't comment earlier. Love the head, like was said before, it fits perfectly.
The only thing I'd like to see is more paint applications on the cockpit of the jet... They look a little unfinished. But hey, who am I to criticize this awesomeness!

The work is beautiful. I give this dude much credit. But I wish he wouldnt give the pics photoshop effects. I want to admire the figure as it really is.

Shouldn't it be;

"But I wish She wouldnt give the pics photoshop effects."

Unless, of course, Sabrina is usually used as a guy's name.

Back on topic, excellent figure! Great choice of base figures. Very impressive paint work. Should this be sold, I can see this fetching a crazy price.

I passed the fine print and went straight to the pics. Ok so "she" is very talented. But you completely ignored my point about photoshop effects. I think she does excellent work. I just want to see the paint scheme without digi-touch up. Hasbro is infamous for doing that in preview pics.

I saw this over at Radicons and while I suppose I should appreciate the work that went into this, I'm just not feeling it. All I see is Tidal wave with tank and jet bits stuck on and a Primus head.

This, and get the whole figure in the shot. That just bothers me, I get youre trying to show hes big, but yeah. I love the bot mode, figure looks great.

Would this be Sabrina Ng? This is hot stuff.. Plenty of people on Seibertron are custom lovers, I think the fact the forum just doesn't get enough traffic so alot of great work goes unseen. I however love this. It just has that massive feel to it and the head is spot on. If this is sabrina, I can spot one of her paint jobs a mile away..Flawless.. :KREMZEEK: :APPLAUSE:

It is her, she posted it on TFW under that name...well, since it's her name it makes sense to post it there...

And thank you for all the feedback and replies guys. I truly appreciate all your comments. And yes. It's me. Sabrina. Used my email username sabsabby85 in the past to apply for forum usernames. But recently changed most of them to Sabrina_Ng.

Ciao!

Wow I can't believe I didn't spot this before. This is not just a custom it is a work of art. Hell of a job! Most impressive. If someone put it in a Hasbro/Takara package and put it on the shelf in a store I would swear up and down it was an exclusive.
