    Voyager/leader Combaticons WIP

    Hello, I'm working on a combining team of reformatted Combaticons.
    The challange of this project is to use the least amount of combiner
    kibble as possible. (Head, hands, thighs, etc.) I went with the theme
    of Earth mode FOC Combaticons because FOC's style matched the
    Style I had went with for the Combaticons' base figures. (I was inspired
    by the preorder exclusive G1 FOC Optimus prime to keep the glowy
    lines hidden in alt mode). Because of my Decision to add the Glowing
    lines to the Combaticons, Bruticus will be quite a sight to behold when
    I'm done with the group. Can't wait to show you all what he looks
    like when the Combaticons are finally reunited!

    Great mold choice! Suits BlastOff well.

    Depending on the body, the stock Universe Ultra Onslaught head might work for you, or even beefier the Headrobots "Butcher" upgrade is GREAT.

    The rest of the gang are a bit harder to nail. Not too many good "peg head" style big dudes. (Which as a huge Scramble fan drives me bonkers :) )

    Alternator Swindle might be an option. I'm guessing you're using the Cap/IronMan Hummer mold for Swindle....I can't quite picture whether Alt Swindle would fit. Personally I don't love that head anyway (It's really Trailbreaker :/), but it might work.

    Scramble-style heads are actually on the top if the list of things I want to do with my 3D Printer, so I might be able to help you out eventually, but Protectobots are currently what I'm working on....

    I was thinking about the universe onslaught head,
    but I don't know if will fit animated ultra magnus...
    I think I will try to look for alternators swindle's head.
    Thank you dearly!
    Also, because of this situation, does this make me a head-hunter?

    You'll never guess where blast off's head came from.

    I was gonna wait to upload these, but yeah.
    So here he is! Combaticon Blast off:
    All paints used on him were testors.
    and also my modded TFA swindle
    isn't apart of the group.

    No, I really don't think that anyone
    will be able to guess who's head I used.
    It's too far-fetched.

    It kinda looks like a modded Kre-O Sentinel Prime's head.
    Anyways, nice work with Blast Off.

    That's totally Classics Jetfire (or the Treadbolt repaint). I mean, it's not even mysterious. :)

    You're all wrong, but nice guesses.
    It's actually a K.O. Movie 1 Ratchet head.
    But now that I look back, It was probably
    based on classics jetfire's head, so you
    all were half right.

    looks very promising so far.
    as for heads,if you haven't found a alt swindle yet,i found that armada scavenger's head fits the bill pretty good,and it was pretty simple to mod to fit.
    basically remove the antenna,remove captain america/ironman's head,add a flanged phillips screw.

    for vortex,try modding the stock head from energon bulkhead.
    for brawl,try a g1 perceptor head.
    for onslaught,like others have said,maybe try the stock classics onslaught head,with maybe a few bits of styrene to beef up his mouth plate and sides of his head.

    can't wait to see your end result!!!!

    Thank you all for your help,
    I really appreciate it!
    But my combaticon project will be put on hold until
    I can get my hands on a Crossovers hulk (tank)
    or crossovers captain america (Humvee).
    as they are going to be re released soon.
    Any one know where I can get an animated
    Ultra magnus?

    Notice: I won't put connector ports on any of the combaticons
    until I have made Onslaught. So once I complete him, I will update
    the team with their connector ports added.
