    hey guys heres a little udate on my version of this much loved and hated custom!im in the early stages of painting so its still pretty rough.got loads left to do.all the metallic and details ect to do.oh and im gonna battle damage the shit out of this one!!

    iv had a few set backs as a tried to redesign some of the connections and things on this.as my connections have no add on connectors so they are all attached to the robots.for more info on the build check out my other threads.

    iv also had to do mixmaster like three times as i keep finding flaws with this one.most notably the fact that the plastic clips that attach him in devy mode keep snapping off with any backward pressure in devy mode.

    anyone else had this problem?

    anyhow thanks again to like a million people who know who they are.most notably sioce and ptitvite in regards to the build.and all those other talented people who advised me on the airbrushing!

    oh and im trying something a little different with the chest shield so let me know your thoughts.cheers!

    Looks really amazing man.
    Great job on everything.
    My only addition would be to hit some ore details, Headlights, detail the treads on scavenger...things of that nature.
