what non tf parts did you use when constructing the bot?
Thanks STPrime! I'm flattered that someone wants one for themselves
Lemme see.. the majority of the kitbash was from Energon Rodimus (obviously).. the thighs are from Classics Rodimus, as are the little hip armour pieces. The grey round parts on top of the thigh were I think the tips of the exhausts from Energon Rodimus and some parts from my bits box. The shoulder lamps are the tips of a Command Wolf Irvine Zoid's exhaust pipes. The back pack is entirely made from a Zoid's Hammerhead kits cannons (the ones from the fins). His neck is from Movie Overcast, as the ball joint fits Rodimus' head perfectly, the forearm exhausts/cannon covers and tips are again from a Zoids Hammerhead kit (the cannons in its hammerhead sections) and the pipes leading to them were from the same Command Wolf Irvine kit, just trimmed to shape.
Theres lots of other bits here and there that you cant see, like some MSIA Wing Gundam's forearms filling out the inner shoulder and a couple of bits from a 1/140 (I think) scale Wing Gundam kit that I used for the waist joint.
The large rifle is made from Energon Hot Shot's gun, with the tip of the missile sawn off, House of M Iron Man's cannon tip and ammo belt, a MSIA Gundam Deathscythe forearm for the scope, and a 1/140 scale Wing Gundam Zero vernier piece for the ammo feed. The wire and scope lens were again, random parts out of my bits box.
The smaller rifle was very easy, all I used was an MSIA Wing Gundam forearm with a peg attached (the one from Energon Inferno's fire hose cannon if I remember correctly) and the gun/key from the Zoids Hammerhead kit.
Phew..
Suffice to say that Zoids and Gundam kits are a veritable gold mine for parts!! Hope that answers your question STPrime!
