Don't get me wrong, Astrotrain for Astrotrain is GORGEOUS, but as also a model railroader, I feel a lot of For example, the Masterpiece (and Alt) figures have hit close to what we call G scale--GArden railroads. a "scale", even a smaller one to meet size limitations, and a live wheelset (rolls) would've made this an Ace. If one wanted, the headlight with a power pickup from the track is a sweet cake topper.
And though Astro never had one, a powered tenderto push him, EPIC.
Nevertheless, this is a very well done figure, and am glad to have seen it.

I think it's scale actually works better with non MP figures...
Also glad the TFW people are posting there customs here since for some reason I don't have an account there...
But man, this is AWESOME.

If I can see the figure in a normal pic with a real backround, then I can say he did a great job !!!

Thnks..really dint get the ideas what r u talking about..(sorry im not so understand English)..but if you look into the size comparison (go to my blog), the MP figure is 1/24 in size and my train mode is even larger than MP Prime which is true comparison between truck and locomotive..and to answer about the live wheel..if you know about how to complete a triple chnagers in 2 half month (for the contest purpose) instead of 1 half year period that it supposed to be, then you know if there enough time to do even the live wheelset and etc
p/s:by the way my 2nd astro will include locomotve body rivet, handrails, live wheels and 40% more details..the things that i already plan but cancelled due to time limitations for the first;)

While many customizers out there have had Masterpiece Astrotrain on the brain - Seibertron.com member wan_de_real has done it again. He's famous for his Masterpiece sized creations, and our favorite Decepticon transport is his latest selection. Not only is the figure massive, but it also won Sector70's Triple Changing Contest! For some eye candy, check out the pictures below!
