    Checked him out again this morning, and yep. Still terrifying looking. He's like, Movie Megatron's "I eat BABIES!!!" scary.

    I think this is your best execution of the Pretender concept.

    Ummmmmm, wow. That is 1 kickass pretender. The fact that you actually got the bot to fit inside really makes this standout.

    How much time did it take to hollow out the inner body of the pretender shell?

    Thanks
    thanks bud
    I agree, the inner bot is just perfect.
    Thanks you very much, I'm glad people enjoy the Pretenders. When ever I work on a commission I'm always thinking of the next Pretender I'm gonna work on. Honestly I plan on doing the entire line.

    I thought it fit and knew it would look sick with the right paint.
    Yea he's huge.

    Ha, have you seen Extinction? Thanks bro for the kind words.

    Thanks

    Thanks you

    :) 

    Yes I plan on finishing all of them at some point. All of em!

    The best part about the DC Direct figs is they are pretty much hollow already, unlike the Marvel Icon figs.

    Thanks, Painting is pretty hard for me, but the more practice I get I seem to pay off.

    thxs

    Nice! Thank you

    Wow man that is awesome! I love how Beast Wars Megatron's whole torso is just a belt buckle on him. That tells me he is BIG!
