    Hey thanks! It was a lot of fun to make.

    I have one other comic I want to do with the Stunticons. I did a version of it awhile ago, but lost the pictures (they were poor quality anyway).
    So I hope to return to them sometime.

    I'll be sure to post here when I get to it.

    I'd definitely be interested in seeing more from you.

    I like that you homage the Black Knight from Monty Python without devolving into silliness like Michael Bay does.

    Your work nicely balanced the drama and the humour like James Roberts does.

    Tell me about it...

    To be honest, I’m just really digging the colour scheme. I want him to go with the MT SG Technobots as some kind of crazy veteran Breakdown lost in a parallel universe :drunk 

    Have to look into the other bots you suggest.

    It is a nice colour scheme. Shame we'll never get any more repaints of the set.

    I've seen two nice Photoshops where the cars are repainted as the Autobots from Masquerade, Mirage, Sideswipe, Jazz and Windcharger and a second where they're repainted as the Turbomasters.

    Damn high praise lol.
    I'm an amateur (and I rarely do stories), and wouldn't put myself anywhere near a professional like Roberts.
    Bay's humor is annoying most of the time.

    Thanks again.

    Random observation. I actually like that it’s so small in combined mode. My display includes CW Superion, Devastator, and Defensor, TFC Hades, MMC Feral Rex, and Warbotron Bruticus. It just makes sense that the guy made up of 5 cars is smaller than the one made of 5 jets, 5 construction trucks, etc.

    I was wondering if someone can share a photo of fansproject diesel next to a G1 Optimus Prime in alt mode. Also diesel next in alt mode to a combiner wars car in alt mode. I am curious since I think the mp10v is a good size prime for my combiner wars in alt mode and looking for a motor master to match. Based on photos the Bold Forms also looked small in alt mode but would it have been bigger than diesel? Does anyone have photos of Bold Forms' motormaster next to G1 Optimus prime and combiner wars figures in alt mode? Also has anyone heard anything about the rising force stunticons / motormaster? I ask since that looked to be more of a deluxe scale based on the 1 photo I saw.

    I'm hoping one of the above works. Any release dates for the rising force set?
    I had been reluctant to get the fansproject menasor set since their cars seem too small next to combiner wars cars. So trying to find a solution since that CW Motormaster is a disappointment. Although I'm hoping that the Toyworld motormaster will give me a placeholder until I find a set of stunticons that work for me. It would be nice to have a good large chug scale motormaster. I wish one of the 3 that are doing a menasor does a 15 inch version since right now it looks like DX9 and Zeta are going for a 20 inch combiner and X transbots going for a 17 inch. Maybe someone will Downscale Zeta's since I know there is a lot of frustration that their stunticon cars are way too big in individual robot mode. (Zeta's is much more tall than DX-9 large stunticons in robot mode and I think that is a mistake since people's collections are too big to have a over grown stunticon car. If it was a constructicon vehicle it wouldn't bother me since they should be large and won't clash with the autobots since they're not cars. Anyhow, its funny how something that you think would be the easiest combiner to make is the hardest to match for large chug collectors who are into a lot of the mainline hasbro releases. TFM would of been nice if it wasn't for the IDW style which is foreign to me, I hope they do a G1 version of it and make improvements to their current one too.

    Given Motormaster is a big character in general, would a legends size (Diesel) be the same as a G1 Optimus Prime in ALT mode or smaller?
    Classics Prime seems like a voyager size in ALT mode, and CW Prime in Alt mode looks like leader size.

    Also how tall is Rising Force Menasor in Combined Mode? 15 inches I hope

    Does anyone have Intimidator and Pocket Toys Bruticus, by chance? Or any MechFans Legends+ scale figures?

    I just came across this guy and, despite the the inflated price tag, I really like the look of him. I'd love to see how he scales next to some of the stuff I own.
