    D'oh. I thought this topic was made for people who have already made kitbashes.

    What would be the point of that? To alot of people, what the should look like is Masterpiece Prime and Alternators, so why not just buy those or kitbash those figures instead?

    Oh. If that was directed at me, I didn't mean that I had an idea...

    I was just curious to see other people's kitbashes. I was at work when I saw this thread, and I thought it'd be a nice diversion and pretty pictures.

    What they SHOULD look like is the new models. The only reason that you want it to look like the old G1 is because of YOUR (and yours only) personal childhood experiences. The people that will buy them in mass will be people without those childhood fantasies and the toy line should change with THEM and not stay static for eternity for YOU.

    Well, I'm no kitbasher, and anything I attempt to do is most likely going to suck, but if I were to kitbash some TF Movie toys, I'd start by giving almost everyone a new head. In particular, I'm thinking of Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, and Bumblebee. Jazz's head looks okay, and we haven't seen Ratchet or Ironhide's.

    There's already G1 and Classics; what's the point in kitbashing the movie toys into something you already have?

    The same reason anyone kitbashes any character - they enjoy doing it. There are dozens of kitbashes/repaints that pay homage to the same character on tfmaster.com, but each one is a unique labor of love.
