Ah hell dude, ya gotta do outback! Thats pure genious. And from there yer just a head swap away from Brawn.

This is a worthy quest. Were I to quest, this is one quest I would partake in. In fact this quest is so nice that if that head and chest were for sale on Shapeways, I might very well quest it up.

Quest.

Great idea, though I think somehow like the alt-mode works better in concept than the robot mode itself. For Outback and Swerve both, it feels like it needs the characteristic "backpack" (or whatever that huge collar should be called) to really cement the resemblance. Is there any way to mis-transform PRID Ratchet to achieve that?

If that element could be resolved, I'd say this would definitely work for Outback as well.

I was literally just thinking about an hour ago "I wonder what you could to with PRiD Ratchet if you replaced his boring chest and head"... Nice work!

Amazing work, and I think you'll get lots of interest if you make this available for sale. Not to mention that with some minor modifications, your idea could turn this guy into a number of possible bots...
I also get a "swindle" vibe off of him; different head, but slightly similar chest to what you drew up. Painting this guy will be a b!tch, though. Lots of sanding, and all that white!

Ninos why you gotta make stuff that we will all want?lol this is a sweet conversion! I would be in for an outback too, and I guess if you did outback you'd have to do brawn, and if this is for swerve then smallfoot and gears......never mind! lmao
