    Since they announced that Hasbro is releasing a Perceptor (truck?) I decided to share this 2 year (maybe older) WIP.

    Wha?! That is sick! The alt and robot modes are spot on!

    Seems like he partsforms a little though right?

    i think he was going for that reachy-toe look g1 perc had in alt mode. i like it a lot! i love all the sniper attention he's received lately due to that change in his character.

    The toe thing is fine, but I think he was referring to the fact the tank treads were on the insides of the legs instead of the outsides. Unless it affects a third transformation mode, I would agree switching the legs would be a good idea.

    Having said that, it looks great and I would love to see him in a clean red paint scheme.

    NEVER! I will not have you cursing at my robot :p 

    No partsforming on him, where does it look like he does though (just curious)
    Oh he'll be finished, eventually. I have a few commissions I have to knock out first.

    He'll get painted fo sho' , but the treads on the inside is how his G1 transformation went.

    I was simply paying homage to it.

    and regarding the sniper rifle, Wheel_jack gets the props on making me do that.

    I think I might have arm/leg dyslexia since I thought his feet were attached to the blue parts that became the upper sections on the microscope mode, but those are his arms. *facepalm*

    Ignore my foolishness :p

    I guess that Cyb Mudflap figure is actually good for something... :lol  The overall proportions suit him very well. How about making the microscope detachable so that our geeky mate can use it as a weapon? That would be cool! :D

    Verrrrry interestnig. Good choices for the parts (though there aren't a lot of spare Shockblasts floating around these days). The Alt Skids head is almost too perfect.
