    An odd request, but I suddenly found myself lost when looking for some good reference pics of StarWars Transformers... especially the later molds.

    Our toy galleries here are gone till... well, doomsday presumably. :) 

    Seibertron.com only has the first 4 or 5 molds.

    bwtf.com is down for renovations for the foreseeable future.

    I've been hunting around, but I haven't been able to find good galleries for the SWTF toys anywhere. Anybody got a source?

    thanks!

    I'm not really into the StarWars Transformers, but since I've seen a few decent kitbashes made out of them, it got me thinking. I wanted to look at some pics to see what ideas I might get.

    Imagine my surprise to discover that in all the TF websites online that have galleries, there's not one that has an extensive gallery of SWTF. I mean... that's just a bit weird.

    sadly it is because they suck ass

    it was such an awsome idea ruined.

    but i really want that war within sideswipe custom, that was perdy...and i want commander cody's, that is the only one that looks good that is official (i need two, one for original look and one to make an ultra magnus)

    I found a Commander Cody and bought it on the spot. I like it... finally a SWTF without f***ed up proportions! Though his wheels do kind of get in the way of his articulation... I'm definitely going to remove at least one set of wheels.

    I LOVE that Sideswipe kitbash... and it showed that even a lame figure can be re-imagined in an awesome way. It never occurred to me that an imperial shuttle could become a cybertronian car... but that's the beauty of it. That's why I need to find pictures of the others figures in the line... to see if I can figure out any other possibilities! :)
