I'll try and get a picture taken tomorrow, will also try to get started on Jallguar's painting so that I can strengthen up the joints so he can stand under his own weight

 

Think that'll be the last shot of Liokaiser now before I complete him, Gives you the idea for sure. Once I've got Killbison done and Jallguar then maybe it'll be time for another picture. Couldn't find Hellbat's nose cone so that's why it's not in the picture.

Only problem with this configuration is that he has no knees.

 

Johnny Longtorso, Johnny Longtorso, the man who comes in pieces! *whip-crack*
But yeah, I hate to rain on your Lion Fuhrer of the Boob Reich parade, but this doesn't really work. Perhaps Hotspot arms on an Air Raid, or something to that effect, but honestly, I think the best thing to do would be to trim the Jallguar fat.

 

It looks better in person than it does in pictures, I had considered using an Air Raid originally but the idea is unworkable, as there ends up being nowhere for the combiner head to go and nowhere for a proper connection to Jallguar.

It will look good enough for my shelf at least. A lot cheaper than TFC's offering and still looks better to me than Hasbro's attempt.

 

updates?

 

Ohhh Man!
This looks amazing, dont know how i missed this one.
Really like how Leozack looks, especially with that head.
Any new update on this project?
Ill be following this one very closely, as looking at your project here has given me some seriously interesting ideas!

 

THIS is how CW Liokaiser should had been.

 

Not really any news on Leozack himself...

You can see I've been busy with pretty much everyone else though.


Going to fit some silverbolt arms back onto Leozack as the combination with Jallguar is unstable.

No threads for the front three if you were to look, going to try and get them finished first, Killbison is furthest along and I only started him yesterday  

 

Lovely group shot.  

 

His own thread is coming this weekend, need to finish and tidy up the striping on his legs/tank rear.

 

awesome, are you going to try to give them arms microns?

 

Beautiful all around!  

 

So... it's almost done??

 

Using the back of an energon tank... that's something I never considered. Is that literally part of one of them, or a reproduction of sorts?

 

it is the arms from an Energon Blight and the front search light from ROTF Blastoff merged with the original Brawl turret, I've decided he is going to be a parts former (though I could hook it back up if I wanted to.) The turret can detatch to become a handheld weapon for robot mode or combined mode.

Going to redo the lining on Killbison over the weekend, but how he looks in robot mode is pretty much how he will look bar a reprolabel or two.

 

Your Liokaiser is so much better than Hasbro's Attempt to make a CW Liokaiser

 

I think of the Hasbro one as more of a Liokaiser homage rather than being a full on Classics update. Like something you'd see in the 2000s, when Energon Wing Saber was the closest thing to a new Star Saber. I'm OK with that personally, but I'm sure Takara will do something more akin to the original, like what Rotorstorm is doing.


But I'm getting off track here. Phenomenal work on Leozack and Killbison! Can't wait to see them combined!

 

That's exactly what i was just about to write!

 

Hey if you're still having combination issues with leozack and jallguar I had an idea you can get these combiner port extentions and put one on leozack in a fold away panel in one of the legs to give a sturdy connection plus it'd give waist rotation and an ab crunch

 

I mean in an arm not leg
