If you can't tell I'm being angry in a sarcastic way and I LOVE this custom.  | Given how I've seen a few of your posts, I fully expected you to react like that. You know, with the number of Sharkticons you have, you could always try it yourself. Quote:

Great job. What paints did you use?
This is a figure that needs to be done eventually!
And yes, he IS awesome  |  Thanks. The blues and red are Liquitex Acrylic Basics, the orange is Americana acrylic (only on the face and chest, the orange of the limbs are from Sharkticon's natural colors), and the whites and silver are some European acrylic paints i picked up while living in Italy. Oh, and the purple on the spark crystal is Model Masters Acryl. Quote:

The mold is used to make G1 Scourge's all the time.  Webcomic Updated November 21 - Chapter 100: Gaze into the Mirror 100 COMICS!!! |

What bugs me is that Sharkticon has so many OBVIOUS repaints that could be done: Sky-Bite colors, G1 Gnaw colors, any kind of real life shark colors, G1 Scourge, colors of a spaceship.....
I could go on, but I think I've proved my point.  |

It's also kind of weird that it's taken this long for someone to actually make this. Considering people keep talking about how it should be done. The Great Action Master Thundercracker Thread |

It seemed to me this was created to be Sky-Byte but for whatever reason Hasbro loves to take the perfect idea and change it just enough to make consumers pass on a sale. Alternators Dead End, Alt Swindle, Universe Dinobot, etc.
With poor ol Sky-Byte Hasbro probably figures the colors are too similar to Sharkticon to be worth the money making it. So we will have just have to admire awesomeness like this.
