    I felt a new paint job was warranted and his sidekick slizardo joined in the fun

    He was the reptillian servant of the Mob Boss that captured the Autobots, turned against the Mob Boss to help the Autobots, then left the planet as Devcon's sidekick.

    Wow really great job~!
    been seeing alot of devcon repaints lately.. either way you're really stands out quick question does the molds arms stay in place now that the paint has added some thickness to the posts?? thats the one gripe i've had with that figure...

    either way really great job

    Oh yes, I remember him now. I liked that character, he wasn't pathetic as that brown lizard creature from "Five faces od darkness" and "Starscream's ghost" who had a big family and tried to kill Octane.

    that's pretty cool. it's too bad they never released that as a botcon/otfcc exclusive (yes, it was going to be one at one point but no slizardo)

    Did you end up using the head from Cybertron Blurr for that?

    Awesome work. :)

    This is really cool since its certainly not a mainstream character that everyone's making. Though I say even after I was just debating on making my own Devcon the other day. Ultimately, I had talked myself out of the effort, but now...

    Is Slizardo doing a little jig or something?

    I love it. And yeah, I can't think of another mold that works as well as that one for Devcon in both his modes.
