Hey everyone, been awhile since ive posted anything. for some time now i have wanted a Brawn to go with my classics collection, but no figures really stodd out to me well enough to use, and the iGear Brawn has WAY too much kibble so didnt wanna go with that guy. so after buying a TFP Kup and realizing it sucked as a Kup, i gave it a hard look to see who it could be and sure enough to me it seemed like the perfect Brawn! the figure remains mostly the same as it came, with the exception that the head was changed, it was casted for me by forum member Savio-Prime, and the hood area was cut into 9 pieces and put back together in a new configuration. the figure DOES still transform, i went for a more of a brushed look with this guy, wanted it a lil gritty if you will. the clear coat i put on ended up coming out a lil too glossy and actually smoothed out the paint a bit more as well... overall tho i am completely happy with this figure! photos were taken with my iphone, so im sorry if the quality isnt all that great. i put a lil boarder on the pics to help black out any background and to focus on the figure. thanks for looking and c/c always welcome
Suits the sculpt waaaay better as Brawn! Dunno why they didn't do this anyway. I'd prefer my Kup to be more skinny 'old man' type.
Thanks guys. Im on my way to work, but when i get home tonight ill snap a few shots with the gun and a few other figs for comparison
Damn that is almost too good I feel like slapping my forehead. Great eye on this one. I like the figure a lot but it's just too small but for a minibot it's perfect!
Thanks everyone, im glad this guy is going over well cuz i put a lot of work into this minibot lol Ill post vehicle mode pics later tonight or in the morning, still wanna wait a bit for the paint to fully cure. And yes the head is from Classics Cyclonus. It was casted for me by forum member Savio-Prime, but then i had to add a new ball joint and shave down the back in order to allow the hoods hinges to fit in alt mode
That is awesomely done! Darn, if Hasbro had went only a few more steps in the opposite direction with this mold I'd have a Classics-verse Brawn in my collection. Instead I have a stand-in Brawn from a movie-verse mold. Look foward to seeing your Outback from this mold.
Thanks!.... And i do wanna do Outback the same way just with a dif head. I need to find a 2nd Kup tho in order to do it Wow!! Id be honored if someone of ur talent and calaber used my figure/idea for a custom! Build away man, cant wait to see what urs will look like!
i updated the first post with some more pics, they can been seem in this post as well, some alt mode pics along with a size comparison pic. enjoy
Thank you for doing this. I have been looking for the perfect Brawn. I love it. It's also the perfect size. So awesome!
that's great. one day I wanna do Brawn out of this mold too. I recently started working on a Gears using it. Please check it out : GEARS (transformation demo) - YouTube
