thnx... hope u like V2 aswell.. so I got like 8+ days left... since I miscalculated I actually wanted my Fort Max to be in the contest.. Well good thing is that I now have 1year for him unti BOTS 2013 UPDATE9: 4 Last pictures added!!! After a very long break I got some G1 parts donated So I'm prolly going to need this done b4 3rd of June since this will be my entry for the custom contest @ Dutch BOTS Convention If I can't chose I'll make sure the Version1 parts can be swapped!
Update10: Well almost done but only 2 days left 4 painting AARRGGGHH... not sure If I'm gonna make it in time... I will start painting 2morow then in between paint I'll make the helmet 2 fit over the articulated HM
Scorpion mode looks awesome. Those legs look familiar, but I can't place them. I'll have to dig through the pages to see where they are from. R!
Cybertron Metroplex modded.. with G1 Scorp parts thnx UPDATE11: Finally the build is done, but I won't make it in time for sunday cuz of paint! But I did took the extra time 2 make new pics and find a decent city mode
OOooooo .. even easier modded G1 Scorp Legs + Lego I know... just wait until 2tone paint to fix that problem
UPDATE12: HELP NEEDED!!!! check final pic, I friggin looked everywhere but can't find the circled parts anymore ad really wanna finish panting this guys up! Does anyone have these parts available for a good price?
I'd be interested to see the scorpion legs transform into railguns, just to add even more weapons to the robot (and maybe base) modes.
Balljointing the base of the legs might also enable a 'radar dish' mode, where the outer parts of the legs trace out the outer rim of the dish, and the inner legs are the struts connecting it to the main body of the toy. Kind of like a triangular/hexagonal swastika.
UPDATE: FINALLY!!!! after cleaning up/re-aranging project boxes, I stumbled upon the long lost parts!!! YEAH.. so soon I'll be finishing it up, maybe do sum extra since I learned a couple of more tricks plus have lots of extra parts laying around stay tuned! Sorry it took so long peepz luv ya!
Good idea I think I now also have more green colored balljoints available thnx, it's obviously my fav 2 and will be displayed as such
