    can't believe that it all ready March; Good things that I was able to get Megatron complete; I will have additional photos soon

    Thank everyone for comments and subjection also very much appreciated



    An WIP Alternator Custom re-shell base to make Megatron as a 1949 Ford Couple. Megaton has being customized from veriest Alternator figures. This custom had being challege from the start; to figure how to showcase many of Megatron traits. Such as his custom made head to resemble G1 Megatron.
    One of most important thing about Megatron had too be his trademark fusion cannon. This custom had being made too resemble G1 Megatron.
    Thank you guys for viewing...

    I like this idea of 50's transformers. Keep up the good work.

    I was thinking the same thing!
    I really like the idea behind these figures. Are you planing on doing any other 50's bots?
    Keep up the great work!! :thumbs2: :thumbs2:

    I love how you used the dark background and backlighting for a noir effect. But truth be told it makes it somewhat hard to see the finer details for the figure. Not to be mistaken, I love the way it is now but it'll be nice to have more pics in more light?

    I was wondering what car you would use for ol Megs. Nice choice of car. I love the old Fords too. He's looking great...nice job of fusing to different Alts together to make him too :thumb

    That looks great!

    Megatron's alt mode wouldn't happen to have been inspired by his car from The Great Car Rally would it? Because that would be awesome :D

    You know how much I love cars and that Ford is definitely an interesting choice to use for as Megatron! I'm excited about your Alternators reshells man! Good to see some thinking outside the box!

    Ok I totally dig the Custom Ford Shoebox Megatron!! I think leaving it the primer black and maybe hooking it up with some whitewalls would make it look like a great lead sled!! Maybe you could maybe do a custom 50 Merc!!! That would be great!! Sorry I come from a old car family!!!
