    No doubt its Megatron...lol. If you zoom in, You can identify the "crest" and his "eyebrows", lol. Should we expect some heavy-scratch? Looks totaly awesome, by the way. Btw, his shotgun gave up the game. Lol. Cant wait to see it finished.

    The sillouhette of the head looks like Megatron and he has a shotgun on his back. It's Megatron. Props on thinking outside the box with using Sentinel as a base.

    Hello gang,

    Man you're great in guessing things ^^

    Yes it will be megatron cause his voyager version is much to small for my buster optimus prime.of course he'll be not a tanker truck, but a military version of the rosenbauer 6x6 (yeah I know that no military of rosenbauer vehicles do exist)

    At first I wanted to mod the cab of the truck, but I didn't found a model kit which fits :-(

    Hope I could finish him this weekend, will post pics as often as I can

    Thx to all for your kind words, and I really love the idea of an earth mode the fallen (we need a really big f117a) ^^

    ouh... i do not know what to say about it.
    I dont think this gonna be a good megatron, because the head do not look so good on this figure... you know, the megatron head you took was from a ROTF leader Megs which always does not look like a real vehicle and it looks organic or cybertronian or so.
    This Cybertronian head on the real looking rosenbauer dont look nice together, I think.
    I would make a bigger head with a bit scratchbuliding, i also think this dude have not got a neck. I really like the idea but I do not like the head on this figure.
    I tried to explain it so much I can in english, I hope you know what I mean :wink:

    Yeah I know EXACTLY what you meant and said, It's everytie the same: no respect of others work, only your projects a fine and without "errors". I accept othe roptinion, but not permanent complaining of one single person against all my work (not only here, but on other boards), so i'll not say what i think now... it's better, believe me...

    @legolas grof: thx for the kind words, this is this is cure fpr my annoyed soul of the guy above... :) 

    Any suggestions about the colourchoice? some points of disturbing elements? (details are missing ATM)

    First pic I saw I knew was Megs.

    Oh, YEAH!!!!!!!!!

    My only disappointment is that it won't be the correct vehicle... but I think an army Sentinel would be AWESOME, and fit more than a truck.

    I think this will be great! Are you going to replace the water thing on top of the vehicle with a cannon? That could then go on his arm in robot mode? That would be sweet!

    I cannot dissassemble the watergun, the Metal pegs are superstrong. And Not armcannon atm (First i planned to give hin shockwaves cannon), gave him the shotgun instead

    Future changes are very possible!
