Cheetor What a better alternate mode than a racing car.....took a "Combiner Wars" Stunticon: DRAGSTRIP and modified into the Maximal: Cheetor...here with his BEAST WARS counterpart.....
I missed the chest face initially, but holy cow great idea! Alt mode really fits his personality. Love this custom!
I like the clever use of the screws for the eyes. Plus the choice of an F1 racer for Cheetor is a really good one.
This is great! I never really cared for the molds used in the DOFP box set, but I still like to see Beast Wars characters reimagined with vehicular forms. This one is--*ahem*--spot on!
While I love this idea, the spots actually ruin it for me.. And I love this idea..if they were swooshes vs spots it be OK.. Or a small logo... But plain spots.. Meh.
Nice! Perhaps the inclusion of custom decals, showing "Cheetah Energon", or something like that, might help? Does the head fit while rotating it for combined mode?
Do you plan to do the rest of the maximals? I could see CW Prime as Primal, Off-road as Dinobot, Rook as Rhinox, and DeadEnd as Rattrap
I could actually see Blackjack or Wreckgar as Rattrap, Powerglide as Airazor, and throw in another Dragstrip repaint as Tigatron, and you have the entire season 1 Maximal cast in gestalt form. Call it Axalon and you're good to go. In regards to the custom itself, I really like it. Even just watching reviews, I liked the Dragstrip mold, and this is another excellent iteration of it. Great work.
