    Well every1 my TFTM Scavenger idea is happening, with alot of thinking n drawing out the plans n such iv finally been able to start this one :) 
    im using RiD Grimlock's Excavator part (In V.mode the upper part)
    and using a Allspark Brawl (iv got 2 so its ok) iv just started workin on it.
    iv altered his transformations n started to sand of a couple of places, the only thing that will be the same will probly be his Robot mode, but im planning on changing that too :) 

    Advice, Likes & Dislikes welcomed :) 

    *UPDATE AUG 23 2008*
    Well i removed the treads of the legs n replaced them with Grimlocks treads, i just need to add on a lil more of the tread to it soo it becomes a full tread.

    Aug 28 2008
    Well in one pic that wut he looks like right now :)  but there is going to be more changes to him as well, but right now i wanna change the claws, im thinking about shorting it so its more like fingers then claws really and the pic of his "back pack" im going to add on weapons where Grimlock claws use to be :) 

    Sept 1 2008
    Well all after a long thought, i made his claws into well hand like claws lol
    i was praying every single moment hopeing it wasent going to come out all stupid like but it turned out great!!
    And Now im workin on his head to give him the Scavenger feel too it :)

    it might could work, I don't have a deluxe brawl... but it seems like those parts might be a little on the small side for it to really fit right.

    would it be possible t mod a set of arms from movie wreckage so that the arms are intercompatible with rid grimlock

    it might be possible to use some styrene to mod one of wreckages arms to form the control cab in vehicle mode and the other remolded arm froming that wrectanguler that rid grimlocks right arm folds into for the vehicle mode


    by the way if you take the black head and legs from the yellow constructicon grimlock repaint and swap them out witth
    rid grimlocks head and legs you get a rather believable g1 scavenger colorscheme

    What was the question? lol So what your saying is that you'll try to improve RID Grimlock's arms "problem"Seriously, I'd love to get a solution to RID grimlock's no arm syndrome and I guess you'll have to try it. I never thought of that idea but if you think it can be done then take your time and do it!!! Seriously, I wish I had found a way to improve this guy. Or are you planning to mod Brawl?:crazy:

    Well i want to use the lower half of Brawl(removed Cannon tops)
    and then maybe use RID Grimlock's upper half(his arms n Shovel)
    to create a Steam Shovel Alt Mode. Until i Get myself a Deluxe Brawl i wont know exactly how its going to work.

    Scavenger was my first Constructicon, so I've got an odd fondness towards him. This being the case, I can't wait to see how this turns out! It seems like you're off to a great start! :thumb
