    Good mold for Whirl. Interesting head.

    Colours not quite doing it for me though... doesn't say "G1 Whirl", though that might not have been your intention.

    thanks! tried making the blue on whirl more dulled and darker, though thinking about it now that i'm staring at my ROC Zartan figure, i could have done a good camo look but still had his trademark light blue base color with dull blue patches. :)

    Looks slick, but I don't recognize the base figure. Who is it??

    The base figure was used is a HFTD Tomahawk.

    @Miko, nicely done on the Whirl custom but you need to make it more blue like the G1 version. BTW, what head did you use on the custom?

    Very cool, is the head from an Iron Man 3 3/4 Drone? I believe a lighter shade of blue would have been more successful, but I like the concept.

    i kinda like it the way it is, besides, i'm not claiming it as a G1 version though :)  but i personally consider it CHUG.

    also used an IM2 Drone Head.

    Looks good, but it would have looked better as Spinister.

    I'm intrigued to see Rotorstorm now, both he and Whirl share similar robt and vehicle aesthetics.

    Very nice. I wanted to possibly do this, but I was hoping someone would beat me to it so I could see what it looked like.

    The blue on the head appears to be a little off, if you fix that it will be PERFECT
