    This is on display at BotCon right now in the art contest area.

    My take on Orion Pax from the Transformers: Exodus novel. Made from Generations WFC Soundwave body with the claws cut off and Breacher's head.

    Head's a wee bit small, but that's a minor nitpick relative to the overall WIN that is this custom!

    Looks great but I'm not digging the concept.

    Thanks for the compliments!

    Yeah, I was afraid the head was a little small too but, overall, I felt it still worked so I left it.

    Cool idea. I think his stats are a little high though. He's just a clerk. Other than that, the custom is pretty cool.

    Nice, but mine's even easier:

    WFC Prime.

    Since that's what he was. Just got a name change, not a new body. ;)

    I stole the stats from the EHobby repaint, heheh.

    Can't wait to see it :) 

    Yes well, in my world, when he took control of the Matrix and was given the name, he changed into WFC Prime. I know they didn't say anything like that in the novel or even hinted at it, but I guess it's me bringing in a bit of the original Orion Pax from the G1 series into it as well... or something like that.

    WOW... I'm planning on doing this with WfC Optimus (the first version) but... SERIOUS Kudos!! I had not thought of Breachers head for Orion, but it is so fantastic looking!
    WfC Soundwave also really catches the Orion Pax vibe! I can't express how awesome I think this custom looks!!

    I like it. Head is just a little on the small side though.

    agreed he needs a bigger head. It should not be smaller than his fist. Other than that its a great idea. I'd love to see a matrix in his chest as well. To me that seems like the best reason to use this mold.

    Cool. I can't help but see a cartoon rabbit face made up of his windshield and the pectoral region.
