Guys, theres an open slot for a basic sized figure within the Establishment!

I pull my basic entry out, the mega sized figure needs way more time and attention and I'd rather spend my time on one figure and make him excellent then divide my time and come up with two less figures.

So who wanted to come along and enter this project has a chance after all :)

Hey kitbashers (or Josh :lol: ), do any of you have any suggestions for the ultra size slot for the Rebellion? I'm hoping to help in the design process if possible, if not that's all cool:)

Now that flamingdeth has created the Centurion drone as a ground counterpart of the Legionair, I think we need a third form of drone, an acuatic one, some form of hovercraft or boat; I came up with the name Praetorian drone for this one, it should be a basic to be of the same size of the other drones.

Anyone interested in kitbashing this one?, I'd make it myself but I have my hands full right now. I'd help writting the bio if needed.

Mazer's a battleship so I gues they'd be his troops. I still haven't figured out a good theme for him yet. If you come up with a good design for the drones then I'll probably use a similar theme.

Still working on Panzer's design. I know mostly what I want, but I haven't made a head design I'm happy with yet.

I still need someone to actually make these. I don't have any of the things needed to make customs.

Actually, the legionair will be made from either energon Sharticon or Starscream. Still trying to work out the damn shield, not that I've had alot of time recently

Not neccesarily, I see all the drones as Eternus direct elite troops all of them with the same roman look, though your idea is still a possibility.

Ummm any of you could update me? I'd like to help with one of these guys but I don't really know what's available and whats not... I've been thinking of a basic figure, a beast griffyn-like drone for the evil side... :oops:

You can create any character you want, though I'd recommend you don't make him a drone as we have that part already covered, just go ahead and give him a full personality.

About the alt mode being a beast, I don't know, at the beginning of the project I said it was OK to have mechanic looking beast alt modes, but right now I'm not sure how that would fit with our story; I'd like to hear the opinions of the rest of the project participants about it.

I would say No to beasts. No biological BW stuff.
Mechanical? Could work.. the sparks could be slightly damaged too so you can go either way with this.. maybe some sort of insane character ?

Insane characters are my very best :twisted:
I was plannin on making him a mechanical beast anyways ^^' I kind of hate biological BW stuff

Personally I like the BW stuff, but I just think it doesnt fit with the project.

Maybe your character was reformatted into a native transtopian creature once he arrived on the planet.

So, should I add your character to the official list?

by TM Seeker Nami
MEOW! Sure ^^ you can add him to the official list. I have his profile almost ready. BTW his name is Xolotl.

Great, and cool name I must say, aztec based I assume, what's its meaning?

PostPosted: Fri Apr 15, 2005 9:55 am
by TM Seeker Nami
Yup it's aztec ^^

In aztec mytyhology Xolotl was the God of lightning and fire as well as
who aided the souls of the dead in their journey to the Mictlan -The ninth and lowest level of the underworld were everyone except from those dead stroke by a lightinin and women who died in childbirth went after death-. He was suppossed to be Quetzalcoatl's twin brother and was usually depicted as an skeleton or a dog-headed man.
Also, Xolotl was also pictured as a big, black monster dog. :)

Hey!!!

I was reading the list, and I was wondering if anyone has made a Sec'Laz figure yet? If not, could someone tell me briefly about them (a general idea of what they look like, if they can transform, if they are 100% pure beast or part mechanical, how they walk, etc.); and maybe I could make a figure based upon this

I was personally thinking of using BW Fuzor Torca's tusks for Sec'Laz mandibles, and maybe some other BW parts as well (some insect, some lizard, some random beast just thrown in, etc.). So, please tell me about it and whether or not I could do a figure like this.

Thanks,

:shock: OOOHHHH!!!! I almost forgot! I was going to ask if these figure's boxes were American or Japanese in design (I mean, will each figure have it's own individual # or a C-# & D-# style to them; and will the basic & deluxe-sized figures be carded like USA or boxed like Japan)? Please let me know, because if I make a Sec'Laz figure; he'd probably be deluxe-sized.

Well, I was originally planning to have the Sec'Laz look like Deceptor's normal form, but it would be possible that he's just an undeveloped Sec'Laz, with being a priest and all.

The old Sec'Laz were 100% biological, but the new ones are cyborgs, with 60% of their bodies technological and only a few can transform (very basic, just wings folding out and cockpits covering their heads). For their appearance you'll have to take those Genosean Warriors (the bug people) from Star Wars Episode 2 in mind, but with crocodile-like tails, their upper legs shaped like wasp stingers (with 3 spikes coming out of the sides), very thin waists, bat-like wings (but instead of leather inbetween the "fingers", the transparant stuff that insects have), 3 claws on their arms, tiny T-Rex like arms on their chest and finally short T-Rex like heads, but with 6 eyes (3 on each side) and spike-like hairs on the back of their heads.

sounds like you combined "the Fly" with a male raptor of Jurrasic park 3

It's hard not to when making a lizard/insect crossover. :P And there are multiple rows of those "hairspikes", unlike the maleraptor, who only had one row. Oh, and the snout is shorter.

hmm.

my first interpretation of atleast the cyborg form was similar to the mechs on Neon Genisis Evangelion. They are based off beetles supposedly.

The NGE mechs...I was first thinking of the more traditional cyborg designs, but that one sounds excellent.

Damn. With a description that detailed, perhaps you would be better off doing the figure.

Does anyone know? Also, if they are numbered, can we make VS Packs like the Japanese Beast Wars? That would be awesome, especially with these cool figures!!!

Please let me know. I need a generic box art design so I can figure out how to place her in the package and what else I need to do for her packaging.
