Howdy fellow Seibertronians and welcome to another round of the Seibertron.com Transformers Photo Challenge. Every challenge has a theme and suggested guidelines to follow. To participate, just post your pictures in the discussion below. The TFPC is just about having fun and is for all skill levels. Previous challenges can be found here.

It's time to put down your instructions and get creative, the theme for this challenge is fan modes. Fan modes are basically transformations created by fans (fanformations?) that can range anywhere from simple modifications of the official transformation to full blown new modes that were never intended. While other fan modes can be crazy mashups that defy faction alliance logic. Below are a few examples to stimulate the grey matter.

Generations Nightbeat has several fan modes in both bot and alt mode.



Fall of Cybertron Blaster can be configured to resemble a Cybertronian Boombox.



Reveal the Shield Strafe and Hunt for the Decepticons Sunspot can be combined to give Strafe a powered up almost samurai appearance.



These are just the tip of the fan mode iceberg. It's time to put on your thinking caps because, we challenge you to setup your bots and show us what you got

Hot Spot can totally do his "Base mode" like his G1 toy! It STILL doesn't look right!

I call it... HOME BASS

Classics Voyager Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus base modes:













Classics Voyager Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus armoured vehicle modes:

Ooh, fan modes! I love these things.


Blackarachnia pretending to be an RTS building. Kinda looks like a sort of portal thingy.


Soundwave doing his best to resemble the "lamppost mode" from the first episode of the cartoon.


Shockwave attempting to be a castle. Or a power plant. I dunno.


Kup's base mode. Or something.

RiD Soundwave - Pterosaur mode...

For some reason I can sorta picture this mode being part of the town in BraveStarr. It has a sci-fi western feel about it. Well, I think so anyways. I like it more than the official base mode.

I like Black Hat's DotM Shockwave base mode too. Looks very villainy HQ.

I could see that, sure!

First post! Long time lurker... so I keep some figures in the car and do fan modes when I'm bored haha Here are my latest ones. The posts so far look great! love the different base modes!

I did these a couple of years ago. They're "mech modes" for DOTM HA Tailpipe and Whirl. Sorry about the quality.

I can't figure out how to post an Image, i've tried twice to post some of mine and it didn't work, I don"t know what I did wrong. I tried typing in the file name, and pasting but it doesn't work, but ill see if next time I can post my creations.

If you try uploading your image to a site like imgur, you can take that picture address and encase it in this: [img]your%20picture%20address[/img]. Have you tried that yet?
