BotCon 2009 Customizing Class Figure Images!

REDLINE · 05-28-2009, 03:34 AM

Thanks to fellow Radicon and photo staff member, Solscud007, we're proud to bring you some REALLY nice high-resolution images of this years customizing class figure, Shattered Glass Thunderclash. Thunderclash is a repainted Energon Rodimus, and he can combine with last year's Customizing class figure, Shattered Glass Nightbeat!

Just click on any of the thumbnails below to view the full-size photographs.

that's pretty awesome. Looking at the pics, I take it they supply those in the class with the unpainted version, and then in the class you add the details? pretty sweet. Any combined mode pics?

Wow, that is reallly sweet. Do they also supply you with the paint so that you can paint yours like the example? (Sorry this is the first time I've seen WIP botcon customizing class pics, let alone even thought about how the class works!) I'm assuming you thought to bring that Rodimus and SG Nightbeat along with you to the class- very smart! I would not have thought of that! I want to see any combined mode pics if you have them too. Have fun at the rest of Botcon Solscud007!!!!

(I'm so jealous!!!!

they supply everything, i assume. all you have to do is pay and show up able to paint and assemble the figure.

and i'm kinda betting they had rodimus and nightbeat there already. one of the guys who does the class posts at the tfcc's customizer forum and he said he was able to get the figures there for the class

I figured they had all the supplies and other figures there. Man, that is so cool. I wish i could go to Botcon some year.

Sadly the Nightbeat and rodimus were not mine. Those were demos from the organizer Shawn Tessman. I just borrowed it to take a picture. I didnt want to combine them as it is a custom.

i want me that SG Thunderclash!

Any idea what kind/brand of paint they used? I think the manual listed testors, but I was just wondering if thats what Hasbro used or was it just for the class?

hasbro does not use hobby paints. they use their own paint that is alcohol based for super quick dry time. This is one of the reasons why isopropyl alcohol works so well at removing the paint.
