    They are from the Metrofrom hulk not the crossover,

    Thanks fellas.[/QUOTE]

    yup thought so, couldnt remember what its called but I used these same hands on a masterpiece scale primal prime I made a few years back. Cool to see others utilising them in a beast wars ec figure.

    Hahaha....Trunky!!

    But jokes aside this is off the chain, like other have said Pretenders do nothing for me, in fact I kinda hate them......but if this is how they looked I'd be all over them.
    Seriously amazing work and good back story, I'm stunned!!!

    One of the most inspiring customs I have seen. All your pretenders are amazing but this one is by far my favorite one.

    maybe use 1 of the legends class figures as a smaller fig might open up more possibilities for a pretender shell?

    Wow, I think every original and inspired custom like this should include a back story. It was really cool to read the short story before looking at the figure. That is the perfect Pretender Shell animal for Optimus. Can't wait to see that T-Rex shell for Megs.

    Sorry to be very late at commenting on this custom but it is a work of genius! You sir have inspired me to do pretender customs now!
    Can someone please tell which Optimus Prime figure was used here?
