    I've seen some great ones made with the Salvage/Dropkick mold. Chansformers immediately comes to mind!:thumbs2:  I believe he made all three Isecticons from Salvage, and they all look different and great!:thumbs2:

    Dropkick makes and excellent kickback, but if you're gonna do Bombshell I can't think of a better candidate than Bonecrusher.

    If it helps any of you, i made a bombshell a while back using FAB Jazz as a base. Just to get the torso to look more like the G1 figure.

    Dropkick for Kickback, obvious. Done, and it works.

    Can't wait to see the finished product.

    I made a semi completed Bombshell out of Movie Payload but he and Shrapnel were never finished After seeing everyone here on a bug kick I may have to finish the paint work on Kickback and crank out the other two...

    I'm with you. Movie Stockade is totally Bombshell. The loose head design, the recessed neck, the shape of the chest area, and the reverse-shell lower legs all scream Bombshell to me.

    Dropkick is obviously Kickback, but I haven't decided on a Shrapnel yet...

    I actually decided the other day that Bombshell was gonna be one of my next projects. I plan to start in the next few days. However, I'm going a completely different route than everyone else. I still want him to resemble his G1 self, so I'm using the Star Wars crossover AT-TE. I think it will fit in with the movie style toys, yet still pay homage to the original design.
