    That's not a bad rendition of Greatshot. But Imho Takara nailed Legends Greatshot's asthetics perfectly...He looks like he just stepped out of the show.

    Agreed, the official one does have the show aesthetic down soli, wish I had known about it earlier but I’m pretty happy with the clonedroid version overall. On the plus side it came with swords haha, plus my quickswitch now has a different mold to my sixshot and greatshot

    Mate, you mind sharing some pictures of the said piece? I'm also contemplating another "look" for Quickswitch just so that he looked different enough from his old man. :)

    For robot mode it’s mostly a matter of the different helmet and keeping the wings folded in. Kibble like the tank treads on his arms and the shoulders can also be positioned differently as well and for quickswitch I keep the wings folded down instead of up so they have at least mildly different silhouettes

    Are you asking about Greatshot? That's his official anime beast mode, just as Sixshot is a wolf, and Sixnight and Quickswitch are pumas.

    Well. going by the clip you posted earlier, I guess he has a regular rhino's attitude towards people he doesn't like. So brute strength is probably one of his rhino mode traits.

    Ok..so we have Six Shot as a Wolf. Strong, silent, loner type.
    Greatshot as a Rhino. Big and commanding. Docile but when pushed over the edge, well...his enimies get stampeded. An honorable Samurai type.
    Both Quickswitch and Sixknight as Pumas. Deadly and silent?
    Hmm.
