    This is the figurerealm.com rockem sockem robots contest prize! I did a second version of steeljaw as a contest prize for figurerealm. Com rockem sockem robots contest. I tried to make him a little more diverse than the first one. I used a robot master leo as my base and proceeded with the repaint. He was a simple repaint that was mainly yellow and some black detailing. This is not a 100% accurate version but more of my take on the character.

    I think its called Victory Leo. I snagged a couple and finally found a use for them. I beleive these are from the Robot Masters line.

    Very nice. I've always been a fan of your repaints. I've got one of your Junkion Commandos in my collection as we speak.

    I really like your work (as I always do), but I have to say I'm just not feeling this one as "Steeljaw", mostly because I still see Victory Leo there so much.

    I do agree with this. It's still yellow and black with the same weapons. Steeljaw is usually gold iirc, with chromed/metal missile launchers.
    I'm honestly surprised you didn't go with gold, as you've had some great effects with gold paint in the past.
