    EDIT: 2 Januari 2011
    Sorry guys guess I deleted lot's of WIP shots :( 
    only thing I could try is find those combiner part mods for the shoulder/arms and make close-up and type a new tutorial... so stay tuned!


    Well I was waiting for the IronHide paint to dry and suddenly felt the need to test my first combiner, befire actually doing my DEVY... (still awaiting parts)

    This last RID prime I got today was a total piece of sh*t and spend to much on it unfortunatly.... but I sacrificed the parts and also wanted to make this project as simple as possible...

    I hated the standard Powerlinx combiner prime (eventhough I still have 1 mint)
    not heavy modding, let the pics do the talking :D 

    (will improve... but not sure when!)

    Ok so I also need your help:

    Cuz this guy need a Name....
    I don't even know where to robots are from, I guess the RID series???

    But Every single one is able to transform just perfect!

    UPDATE:
    more info added on request, feel free to ask more! ... maybe my first Youtube video review??? anyone interested?
    (but please only if you really need it, cuz it takes extra time )

    BTW: [parts used]
    -Energon Superlinx Optimus Prime (no mods)
    -2 same molds of RID Prowl's (no mods)
    -hotrod look-a-like RID mold (minor mod, drilling out hand that holds rear bumper)
    -desert ralley RID vehicle (minor mod, drilling peghole into the "spare tyre" thing)
    -Upgrade RID Optimus Prime Hands (no mods)
    -Upgrade RID Optimus Prime Feet (combine with shoulder pieces)
    -Upgrade RID Optimus Prime Shoulder pieces (to combine with feet)
    -some default (I guess) Exoforce balljoint/connectors

    UPDATE:
    -downscaled arm gibble, to look a little cleaner...
    -2 new Prowl molds have been found and paid for :D 

    Not sure what I'm gonna do with their colors, probably nothing...
    and team up the blue ones for legs and the white ones for arms :p

    A hand iron saw is all I used :D 

    (O and for the drill part I didn't actually drill by heated a screw with a lighter)

    Look at the pics .... on the shoulder of powerlinx energon prime...
    you see 2 default holes.. the blue and grey lego pegs (marked A) fit right in!

    Yeah, I got this same vibe. I think it's the red car sitting so high up
    for the right arm that does it.

    Anyway, whatever you decide to call him, nice work
