    Had this guy in the works for almost a year but finally manned up in the past 2 weeks to finish him.

    This is the second Predaking Voyager body with a Energon Scorponok head. Attaching the head was the hardest part of this project as I wanted to give it a ball joint for added articulation. Head was attached via a styrene rig inside the body connected to a Gundam head joint. The head was then hollowed and set with the corresponding socket for the ball joint.

    One heavy duty paint job later and TM2 Megs was done.

    That looks amazing.

    Off topic, but I had that Power Rangers toy in the third picture when I was younger! It's probably still sitting around someplace, actually.

    I really dig this, and now I'm slightly enticed to find a ultimate Predaking and painting it up like this.

    Awesome! Only thing I would change is to give ol' "Grape Face" a grape face.

    And yet another BH figure I'm surprised never got officially repainted into a BW character.

    This is beautiful. Beast Wars Megatron is one of my favorites, TM2 was the first Megatron I ever had, still have him lurking around too.
    Been eyeing up Cybertron Scourge for something similar to this.
