    Here he is, The Wreckers' biggest fanboy...

    "Fis" is painted with Tamiya acrylics, with some cheap light grey spray paint from a hardware store. His lightformer cannon is made from the guns from Universe Swerve and a spare wheel cover from the 1:32 scale Hummer Roadbot. His head is from the 1:32 Pajero Roadbot with a soldering iron giving him the head scar, and Selley's Plasti-bond to sculpt his faceplate.

    Thanks for looking!


    Coming up next: the worst case of Primus Apotheosis you've ever seen.

    Interesting choice of the mold, the back pack is so nice.

    I've been wrecking my brains for a while about which molds would make a good Ironfist and it never occurred to me that cyber red alert is a great fit. Its a little short and stubbier than most deluxes, so that fits with his appearance in LSotW, and he really looks the part.

    Brilliant work, especially on the lightformer cannon and the head. The paintwork is great too.

    Him and impactor look great standing next to each other.

    WOW, I never thought of this mould for Ironfist, I thought ROTF Brawn would be a good fit but this is even better, may try this since I've got a movie crankcase missing his head.

    I'd suggest the SWTF Turbotank for Pyro, can't wait to see what you use for Rotorstorm. Where did the left hand come from?

    I've thought that ROTF Brawn would make a good earth mode LSOTW Guzzle.

    A random KO. Finding a hand that matched aesthetically was hard, making it fit was hard and drilling out the inside so that the holes match was really hard!


    ...sssshhhhh. :redface2: 

    thanks for all the comments guys, it's really motivating!
