So after decapitating my Swindle to make a Trailbreaker, I thought to myself, hmmmmm what can Swindle become??? How about, a Combiner Wars inspired Alternators Dragstrip??? (but an off-road version) - One set of CW Dragstrip reprolabels - One Dragstrip ConstructBots head Offroad mode: Sponsor decals & stripes: More sponsors: Head close up: Knee decals: Robot mode: Alternate "Racing Number" decals:
Nicely done, but I'm not feeling it as dragstrip. He's meant to be a day F1 or equiv car. Perhaps if the alt mode was a long, elongated Bahja buggy?
I hear ya....it was more a decision based on sheer color and having the Dragstrip head available. The leap of faith you need to make is that it races in dirt, rather than a track. lol
Lovely stuff, I think this works much better as an all new character. "Gearjammer" would be a fitting name I think.
I can see why you may feel this way, but this custom really pulls off Drag Strip well. The idea of a racing Jeep is a clever one, and there's no denying that robot is the said character. Good work and I hope we see more
Update: Added larger race numbers on the door, to reflect a more racecar (or jeep) look. ....matches the hood deco too. or w/alt faction symbol showing (preferred way)
