Hey Guys, finally finished another custom. This is another Pretender, Groundbreaker.
This guy was originally suppose to be used for Octopunch's body before I decided it was too robotic for him.

Anyway, Groundbreaker is one of the coolest Autobot Pretenders, even though he didn't get much time in the comics and was never in any G1 toon, i always remember the cool Lion on the chest.

I gave him the BIG feet because Groundbreaker should have massive feet.
Other then that I tried to make him just like the G1 Figure. Hated painting this guy, the smaller car was a real pain.

Anyway hope you guys like him, heres the pics.
















some better light shots of him getting dullcoated.

Wow.. Just.. wow..

Aprim, amazing work. The highest respect. This almost makes me forgive Hasbro for making Pretenders. Except of course they didn't make it--you did.

This is awesome. Extremely impressive.

Its sweet but the thing that allways turned me off to these was the human faces on Robot bodies

looks pretty cool. Never had anything for pretenders though.

Now I would buy this!

Back in the day I hated the pretenders too. The Decepticon Pretenders where much cooler than the Autobot ones! Some great villains came outta there, BLUDGEON & THUNDERWING

As a kid did i love pretenders, i saw it as 2 toys in one and i used the shells as masters of universe heros:P

This one looks awesome

Man, I only had one pretender as a kid, and it was indeed Groundbreaker. Never thought I'd see him looking this awesome though. Love it!

Thanks everyone for checking it out! Hopefully i can share more soon!

Way to go!
