    Cool looks sweet wondering how this would look with an armored front window that resembles G1 Megatrons chest for bot mode.

    Thanks, really appreciate it. I am fine tuning it as I go. But he is pretty much done. I am overall pleased with the results and fill tackle a new one down the road. But damn, that G2 Tank Megatron head is very difficult to find.

    Can you find the beast wars second version?? It's the same figure, I'd I'm not mistaken.

    I have that bud. But the head is too small.

    Nice work. I was wondering what this would look like and you've answered the question. The color and head look nice.

    I have to find a way to do this on a smaller scale!

    Real cool. i was gunna say the only thing i dont like is that his chest still looks a little too Optimus-like, but the fact that it transforms makes that understandable.

    Works very well. As a display with the other Decepticons, it works really well. I may try that and I love the head sculpt

    I really like this concept. Reminds me of TF4 Galvatron.

    I think this is a really neat idea and it was executed very well! I had to do a double-take to realize it was Optimus Prime underneath.

    However, if I may offer some critiques, the red on the mid-sections of the arms looks off to me. I think it would look better either in black or in the same silver as the rest of the arms. The other thing is that gap in the middle of his chest. I think if you closed it up more then you'd have a much more convincing Megatron since his chest was originally seamless. But that's just my 2 cents!

    But closing the chest would hinder transformation.

    I didn't mean close it permanently. Just make the gap less obvious. Right now it looks like the chest isn't closing all the way.

    Wow, this is truly unbelievable. When I first saw the pics, I thought it was the real deal, had no idea it was a custom. Fantastic job on this one.
