    I thought it would be cool to summarize a few of the TF customs on ebay, seeing we're gonna be getting a flood of them in the next few weeks. From what I know, these aren't from board / radicon members.

    Anyway, these I thought were either cool or something. Please feel free to add to this list.

    Universe Runabout and Runamuck
    (happy to inspire, thought it was the pair I sold when I first saw the thumbnails)

    Paint ball gun
    (at least that's what I think it is....BIN price is $1,500!!! must be a good paint ball gun, maybe so good, you can't miss your target good.

    Classics Menasor
    (pretty cool, a little too "organic" looking for my taste, but a nice fresh take on this character)

    Transformers Custom Classics Bludgeon Universe
    (very bright colors, but unique idea)

    Checked out the rest of his current auctions too... He uses Prime for like EVERYONE ;) 

    I was really impressed by the Cyclonus-into-Alpha-Trion and Prowl-into-Shockwave That's thinking WAY outside the box :)

    What's so funny?

    I think the individual Stunticons are the strength of the artist's work. I'd say that there are things that could be improved upon, but it does have it's pros like anything else :wink: 

    If we are to have continue threads like this, we still need to remember the Radicons Guidelines and Etiquette when posting :thumb

    Exactly, Hell I can't even begin to think of a way to make connectors work for a gestalt. Gotta get a few bashes out of the way before I attempt that one.

    And I want that gun for I know for sure I would PWN on the field with by the grace and courage of Optimus..........until I take a shot to the hand and quit like a girl!!!!

    [ebay]140328613204 **Please attach images as per Radicons Guidelines and Etiquette. ~Radicons Staff**[/ebay]

    Yeah, that's pretty crazy. I always wonder about things like this, or crazy combiners and stuff, if the buyer gets some kind of 'instruction' manual on how to put it together. =)

    Guys, I will reitereate: if you are posting about auctions, please attach the images from the auction. After only one week most times, the auction is over and things are taken down. The result is a thread without content.

    We can't Radicons who post in a thread that doesn't abide by our methods of posting.

    Sorry 'bout that, won't happen again :) 

    So yeah, Alpha Trion- Looks much like Santa, but still very cool! I REALLY think with a more carefully retooled head this could be a KILLER recipe, I keep looking at BotCon AlphaTrion and wondering if I wouldn't be happier with something more like this...

    And Shockwave, I think the windshield-into-targeting-scope was a brilliant idea, the bidders seem to agree as well.

    It's cool, guys :)  The Radicon Staff (and others, of course!) really despise clicking on a thread weeks, months, and [yes] even year from now only to see threads talking about things that one can't view anymore.

    I can see A-3 out of that mold . . . and I can see some Radicons taking this and running with it more too.

    As for Shocky, while there are some cool aspects (of which you aptly pointed out), I really don't like that mold as a whole for him.

    TOTALLY understandable, I've experienced the same frustration!

    I'm *this* close to reaching out and commissioning someone to do something similar for me
    I'm with ya, the final product leaves much to be desired (though looks like he'll be getting some good money for it!), but it's just CRAZY creative, which I really appreciate
