    another one off my table,yet sadly one i won't be keeping.
    this guy has been sitting on there forever and a day waiting for me to get to him.
    once there was the announcement of tfcon having a live auction at the show this year,i wanted to contribute to it.(make a wish is one of the better charities imho)

    this guy started out as a rotf scout class hubcap.
    his stock head was severely ground down angular,trying to evoke the same funny shaped head scrounge sported in the marvel comics.
    his front fenders,rear fenders and roof have been lopped off too.

    bio=
    waaaaay back in the marvel universe storyline,scrounge's last few moments in this world was throwing grandslam and raindance to blaster to pass on important info to the autobots before he succombed to the smelting pool.
    however,unknown to all(even blaster) at the time,scrounge secretly stored his core being and consciousness into grandslam before throwing them to blaster.
    years later,blaster found scrounge's personality in grandslam while downloading the latest release of canadian slag.
    he immediately asked ratchet to re-animate him.
    unfortunately,ratchet only had some parts he salvaged from a "human" antique junkyard.
    though the body was pretty much shot,the spirit was and always has been there.....oh,and now blaster's extremely happy to have his lil' buddy back.

    SCROUNGE! I have an unhealthy fondness for Scrounge, and this tickles that fancy like a thing that really tickles. Nice job!

    Scrounge threw his spark into a cassette? Well, considering how much data they were supposedly able to store (Grandslam: 20 years of audio) I suppose it's plausible, though I wonder how Grandslam wouldn't know that he was storing someone else's spark....

    In any event, I'm rather fond of Scrounge too, and you did a great job on his head.
