Ah, those old Pretenders. Back in February, the galleries of Seibertron.com were graced by their presence. Now customizer aprim's newest creations asks the question, "What if the pretenders were released in 2011?". We've got Groundbreaker, who looks like he's ready to break out the shell and give the Decepticons all they can handle. Check it out below!

Feel free to compare the figure to his predecessor! You'll find more images in the Energon Pub forums.

Aprim, amazing work. The highest respect. This almost makes me forgive Hasbro for making Pretenders. Except of course they didn't make it--you did.

Now I would buy this! :ic$:

Back in the day I hated the pretenders too. The Decepticon Pretenders where much cooler than the Autobot ones! Some great villains came outta there, BLUDGEON & THUNDERWING

Man, I only had one pretender as a kid, and it was indeed Groundbreaker. Never thought I'd see him looking this awesome though. Love it! :APPLAUSE:

I love the use of the Master Grade DOM as the base for this. One of my favorite MS's and a great tribute.
