I went to swap this guy's arms with another Kreon's and the shoulder post just popped off with the rest of the arm, no warning or anything. Not too miffed since I have 2 other Crankstarts, but worried just how easily it broke.
Getting the remnants of that post out was a major pain.

I've popped other Kreon arms off without incident, so I don't think I did anything excessive.

New custom Kreon:



I hope they'll release an official version of Sunstreaker with a correct helmet, but a repainted Starscream helmet gets the job done for now.

The painted yellow on the arms gives this guy a neat look, I got the idea from the human SWAT Kreon.

Still painting the torso details on my customs, although I keep looking for some kind of transfer medium that would give a more even look. I'm not a big fan of using decals for the entire chest, I only use them for logos and numbers, etc.

More to come...

Hi strangers!

I really, really like that Sunstreaker... And I'll be sure to copy it

I understand what you say about decals but I really can't paint as accurately and neatly as that, so will stick with my cheat method

Anyway, after a little while off from making the little fellas, here are two of my favourite Bots in Kreon form. I know I said I'd have some Cons ready when I came back, and I'm working on it, but hey, I love them good guys.



I've only just realised that in my excitement I haven't given Blaster his symbol yet. Oops.

Those are awesome! I couldn't think of a good way to do Blaster with current pieces, but that's great.

The face on Tracks is really cool. I'm working on a custom for him right now too using some different pieces, it'll be neat to compare the different approaches.

Thanks! I've had to work on a few faces as not everyone is grey

Also I've pressed a lot of 'human' parts into service which means starting from scratch face-wise anyway.

Right, if I don't have a Con ready for my next post you can all pelt me with rotten fruit or something.

Love the customs! I ought to work on some of my own (I have about a dozen spare Kreons lying about)...

I love these little guys! I'd love to turn my human Kreons into TFs but its hard getting extra helmets etc over here in Australia.

Could do with some minor tweaks, like a black vest and yellow guns.
Alternatively, Mindwipe:

Doesn't need the vest...
I almost have enough parts to make both of them, just one of them needs to use another set of legs.

This makes an excellent start to Beast Era Ravage:

Just needs a proper black cat head. Maybe this?

Eh...
Does Lego have a cat head I can use?

these customs look awesome.

[Noideaforaname]

Just a small change on Mindwipe and Ratbat.

+2 Decepticons, yay!
