I've been following the progress on Limewire's ROTF Onslaught since he started it, and I'm really liking what he was doing with it. It even inspired me to do this, make my own take on it, but basing it on my Onslaught concept to differentiate it from his. I rearranged the backpack and wheelcasing, and added some RiD Ultra Magnus parts to try and bulk him up. It's just the trailerpart for now (which I will try and mod into an actual trailer for the altmode), but I intent on using the cannon and some other parts eventually as well. I also tend to change the figure so the altmode will look more like an actual army truck, but I have been unable to find a modelkit that I can cut up and use, so I think I'll have to improvise that. No idea if I should try and give it a short nose like the Oshkosh has or a long one as in the included pic, though. I might or might not use the idea of a tank forming additional armor; it might end up looking too bulky. But I will try and give him the wheels on the front of the lower legs and the mining plows on the shoulders, even if they will end up being faux and not used in the actual altmode. And one thing I will definately do is give him some major 'dakka', I already have a big selection of guns and missiles ready for that.
I'm glad you're sharing this with the rest of the boards, because you're making something awesome here. don't make this a non-transformable transformer, it has much more potential than that!
That is cool, same head and torsomod as me, i love that, yours look much more better than mine, waiting how this guy turns out. And i m waiting for altmodepics!
Gotta give credit to Limewire for the idea on the head. I might change some things about mine though. Wonder if there's an easy way to add the steel grating effect to the mouth, so I can make it really look like my concept. Thanks! And I'm definately going to try to make it transformable, the trick will be finding the right parts.... The altmode is just Prime's normal truckmode and the trailer part of UM. No need to post pics of that, but I will do that once I have modded it a little. Thanks! Figuring the feet out will be tricky though. Right now it's stable, but I'm gonna try to find a way to improve that, the articulation and the aesthetics. Already have some things in mind that could work. Yours looks pretty awesome, though! Btw, are you heading to TF-Conversions this summer? Would be fun to display both of our takes together.
Nice!Please finish this,soon!!I agree with the rest love the legs,but the shoulders,neck area give it a bad ass attitude look!!
As i said, the people will prefer yours, but i really like that prime could be transformed so different. do you swap the iny wheels of magnus? they dowsnt fit into this beast!
