(Burnout is my custom character FYI)                Also, RIP Rumble Thugger whose leg broke while shooting these pictures. He will never transform again...  The set up didn't work quite as well as I had hoped. I kept struggling to find an angle to shoot that would show off what was going on and Burnout at the same time. Oh well.  My Thugger gallery |

For the transformation it isn't quite as solid as Wheeljack but it's 98%. The hands and the head compete for space but that's made easier by tilting the head down as far as it will go.

| G1 got it right!   Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 10,444 Location: Virginia Collection Count: A LOT | He looks great! The only minor critique is the paint looks a little thick. It does have a nice shine to it though. The head looks cool.  |

And the gold had a similar problem. Burnout V4 - Free papercraft energon cubes made by meMy Thugger gallery |

| Autobot Join Date: Jun 2010 Posts: 7,612 News Credits: 1 | Thanks, deliciouspeter. Burnout V4 - Free papercraft energon cubes made by me Yeah SMOG, this was dry brushed. I'm not a huge fan of spray paint because it doesn't give me the fine control dry brushing does. But I don't think it would have been possible with this figure. Wheeljack isn't really able to be taken apart for painting. Or at least that is beyond my skill. He has pretty much all pin joints that I can't detach. It was a little annoying. My Thugger gallery |
