    Here is my entry to Sector70.com's Megatron Challenge

    I made Armada Megatron from Nest Bludgeon and the head from Superion Maximus. the hands were modified using Alternator hands to look less Bay-style.

    The feet are from Armada Scavenger.

    He originally started as a Warpath Kitbash, but after Hasbro released their Warpath I decided to use this for the contest

    You just made what I always thought was a crap figure completely in-freaking-credible.

    Love it.

    Kudos to you for creating two non-traditional characters! I think this makes an excellent Armada Megatron and Leader-1. I wouldn't necessarily sit here and think to use the Bludgeon mold for Armada Megatron and nor would I use the Crankcase mold for Leader-1, and that's what I love to see. You took these molds and gave them new life...in fact, you took two boring toys and made them downright exciting!

    Your choice of using the Superion head for Megatron is excellent. I remember debating on using the same head when I made my Alternators Armada Megatron so long ago!

    I would love to see more Armada customs in your future.

    He needs the StarSaber. And a combining Tidalwave *hint, hint*

    Nice one! I'm liking the addition of his 'mini' con as well as the choice of head sculpt (can't believe I've never seen that before!) :)
