How about now?

My roommates are usually great, which just pisses me off when stuff like this happens when it’s completely unnecessary.

Check your PMs

My friend Bob is one of the featured customizers on TFW2005:

You may need a log-in name to read it.

Anyway, this guy made some cool Armada figures using the Alternator/Binaltech line. I was able to check some of them out in person the other day.

Edit: For kicks. Here’s an incomplete project I was working on last year. I got discouraged and gave up, but a lot of the customizers have been telling me they were very impressed that it was hand-painted. They originally assumed it was sprayed on because of the smooth look and lack of brush strokes.

Finally got around to grabbing classics 2.0 Sunstreaker and Prowl today. Good stuff.

Only wish they’d rerelease Starscream & grimlock from the first line(Only ones i missed that i wanted).

I ran across this pic from this year’s SDCC and liked it. :tup:

I remember seeing this huge cardboard Grimlock costume/prop at Otakon 2003. It fought the Kool-Aid Man. I, of course, missed this because I was in the game room playing Marvel :frowning:

Where in the hell are your priorities, Satomi?

Kool Aid Man Vs. Grimlock? That’s a betetr match up than any Marvel Vs. game. Damn man!:mad:

I have a picture around here somewhere of a Ronald McSepiroth-Donald Vs. Sepiroth at AX08. Pretty funny shit. He had a 6-foot long french fry as a sword and long red hair. Looked like some kind of IPC reject.

That’s why I stopped playing Marvel after that summer.

I gave up on the Cybertron Menasor custom a while ago. I’m thinking of a few things to work on instead. One of them is repainting my spare Classics Hot Rod into G1 Overdrive.



The vehicle modes are almost the same. All I’d have to do is remove the spoiler. BUT part of the spoiler could be converted into wings for the doors as seen below.

Thoughts? Anyone?

OMG!! I don’t know how old this is, but CLASSICS MENASOR custom!

^^ All constructed of repainted classic/universe bots. I think a big daddy figure from the movie line was thrown in there too.

Yea, that’s Redline’s Menasor. He worked on it last year. I asked him if he could make one for me as a commission.

'Tis beautiful!

If only takara/hasbro would commit to a project like that for the classics line. 5 Individual, deluxe/voyager, sized bots that combine!

Picked up Blades and Dropshot this weekend.

Nice additions to Classics, especially Blades.

I got both of those too. Nice molds. Wasn’t sold on Blades at first, but he grew on me. It’s a shame they’re releasing the mold again as Springer though. Would’ve been nice to add another triple changer to the line.

why are the legs at the legs and the legs at the arms? mean the bots that should be the arms are the legs and vice versa.

I don’t know, ask him.

Yep. My Blades was on the doorstep when I got home. A nice little surprise for a bad day.

Another Cybertron-Galaxy Force reissue for anyone else that’s interested:

I’ll be picking this up for sure. This is probably a good time to stock up on all the molds you may have missed.
