    THIS IS ONLY A DIGI-BASH!!
    But, this is what I intend to do with movie BB:
    [​IMG]
    He's taller than the custom Sideswipe (Classics Hot Rod) I commissioned from Sculpt-Bot in robot mode, but he's smaller than him in car mode. The toughest part will be carving the ears out of Cl. BB's head...

    Well, thank you.

    I'm hoping the finished product turns out looking like that.

    Only problem for the movie is that in order to get one of these for $4000 it'd have to have been shot by a cannon and then lit on fire. Otherwise $$$$:D

    Just a suggestion, but perhaps if you took an exacto-knife and cut grooves into his face, then painted them black, you could him the appearance of having multiple panels making up his face, instead of one piece. Might give him more of a movie look.

    Maybe something along these lines:

    NICE!! The digibash looks good, though maybe it would make more sense to just attach the horns to the head, rather than try to sculpt them out of the existing plastic. On the other hand, I guess you might as well start with sculpting the head, because if you totally screw it up, you can always attach new horns to cover it up! :) 

    I was actually planning on doing this with the 2008 Camaro Bumblebee, and using either the same mold or the retro Bumblebee as the basis for Sideswipe. Somehow a 70's Camaro seems to fit Swipe's character better (even if the skinniness of the robot mode doesn't match so well), and the flashy new Camaro fits with Sunstreaker better.

    But then Sunstreaker and Sideswipe were announced for Classics 2.0, so I'm wondering if I should bother. Anyway, these look great!
