    Wow, that's pretty cool! Mind giving us a little history on how you constructed this and with what materials?

    No problem!

    He started as a movie Landmine but I removed the head and the Claws. The head has been replaced by a Machine Wars Megatron head that has been resculpted over with apoxy sculpt to look like BCs. The new forearm& hands came came from a MARS kit. After all pieces were combined he was base coated with black then painted wth Enchanted Blue. I used drybrushed Mithral Silver to give it a slightly worn look. The hands was painte silver then was coated with a clear coat of valejo Clear yellow to give it the golden Touch!

    Is the figure very delicate? Also, how easily transformed is he?

    Not at all! Hes just as strong as a Hasbro TF and hold his form very well. I am including the instruction with him. The only difference is you need to pop on the forearms.

    Pretty cool, I like how they gave him an Electrum hand, nice little homage to "The Golden Lagoon"
