The Energon Pub

See, I love it. Optimus is the correct scale. I hope that if they DO use Devastator in the movie, the scale comes across good.

I was thinking of taking the original (KO) and cut it in half to add a bigger middle piece...or something near that just to inflate the chest shield.

Would voyager-size Energon Megatron's wings be too big?

See, that's just reminding me of the stupidly-big Devastator statue that used Energon Galvatron as a chestplate. :p

But that's looking gorgeous so far. I'm looking forward to seeing what you're doing to the individuals, too. Do you plan to make them better homages to the G1 versions?

Thanks Ramrider and nitro
I don't think I'll do much work on the individual cons.
I'll give them a proper G1 style paint job and heads. Not much a want to modify as I'm affraid I may fragilize the combined mode.
As for the chest plate I have no idea if E Megs wings would fit because I don't have the toy. I'll probably make one out of scratch.

I'm really thinking about doing one of these. I got the figs, I think :-?

Do you have any updates yet? Maybe soon?
It's gonna look so good. You should be proud already.

F#@<ing HELL! that looks amazing. you've got some guts ptitvite. have you gotten that head situation figured out. PM me if you still need a casting. I can't promise anything.

hey ptitvite!

How's this mother coming along? I wanted to let you know, I have almost all the peices to make myself one the same.

I got lucky this week on ebay! found an out of box Unicron for $5.50 and a primus for $20.00..only guy I am missing now is Landmine for the left leg! I can't wait for your step-by-step if it's ever out...because I KNOW this is gonna be 1 kitbash I wanna stay away from.

Fri Nov 23, 2007 9:00 pm

Hey! You just made my Devastator custom cry!
Seriously though, you have dropped my jaw once again. Shockingly good work man. When I see this thing finished, I may not recover.
I'm wondering why you didn't use Unicron's arms though? To me they look like they would be more Devastator-like.

News Credits: 5 · Fri Nov 23, 2007 9:02 pm

I was thinking the same thing, but seeing them both here, I think Uni's forarms are too big and bulky...

The hands might be better though..

Scrapper is finished and painted.
Long Haul is in the paint shop.
Chest shield is ready to be made...Planning is done.
The remaining is as it was in the pics but working on it every night.
Started 1 head but not nearly finished.
I wish i'll finish this really soon 'cause I want to work on other stuff.

Fri Nov 23, 2007 9:05 pm

It's all about big and bulky, man. It's ALL about BIG and BULKY.

Hope you guys like Scrapper's paint scheme.

Ahh, Couldn't figure that out at first lol. he IS scrapper now!

That it awesome. Pure awesome. What's he based on again?

Sat Dec 01, 2007 11:21 pm

Seriously Ptitvite, I think I'd go gay for you. Just give me a call. Your Scrapper is amazing; it's even better than the one TFmaster made.

Man, if I had more time for customs I'd steal all of your ideas on this one Ptitvite. Since I have no life I actually have lots of time for kitbashing, but I have such a long list of figures I want to do I don't know when I'll be able to stop.
