Alternator punch/counterpunch. Based on an alternators sideswipe Additional punch weapon made from a zoid part. Head base is from an energon ironhide, which due to its nature can be used to 'hide' the face that is not in use. possesses two different robot modes, but I will not be adding any faction symbols as they could be seen in the alt mode. New head and parts alterations do not affect the transformation sequence. Figure may be put up for sale when finished, due to the person who comissioned it not wanting it. {he's preordered the collectors club one} Has modded double sided hands. head orientation is based on punch/counterpunch's appearances in the headmasters G1 series. This is still a WIP but barring any problems he will soon be finished. 10/06/10 Nearly finished now. {only a few very minor details left to do, as well as finalising the customised box I will be making to go with him, then he will be put up for sale. Possibly onto ebay if a private buyer doesn't swoop in and make an offer.} pic of Counterpunch:- 14/06/10 Alternators punch counterpunch {vehicle and punch robot mode} (only have a few small things to finish as well as the custom box, before he'll be finished.)
This reminds me a whole lot of TFmaster's same custom. A few others have done it too. I really like some of your approaches here, such as the faction symbol not being visible in Alt mode. I don't see the need to alter the Viper gun, though. I really like what you've done with the hands. It's a shame that the original deal fell through. Hopefully, someone else will compensate and appreciate it more, though
Updated. {figure's almost finished now. I'll update the first post with punch, alt mode and custom box pics probably over the next few days.}
Nice. I'm not too keen on the helmet he has. I like the whole one face on front and back for him. Still, love the change in bot mode. Looking forward to the finished product.
Nice use of the Ironhide head. I really like that shade of blue and your paint looks very clean. Now finish him up already.
