    I'm really digging the style of this. It looks to me like the best of bad 90s CGI but in real life. Big win in my book.

    perceptor might be sweet.

    I have been waiting for this. Super awesome. Personally, I'd love to see grimlock robot mode. But, for something completely different, I'd like rhinox

    I can't even express my love properly for these. They're so unique and fresh and new and artsy and perfect and you must keep making them

    I voted Starscream for next, because his character is so different than the other two, his build is different, he's cunning, etc, so his design could be really cool and funky and I love these

    Never looked at it that way, but you're right! :tongue:  Percepter must be done!

    Hold that thought....'cause you ain't seen nothing yet!

    As an Abstract Prime repaint or new armored version?

    Yes, Galvatron will eventually be done! I def put more work into Megs, for some reason it was just more involved than Prime.....

    Thanks, I was pleased with the final result after all was said & done, was a little more involved!

    Eventually, possibly.... :eek: :wink: 

    Grimlock has easily topped the voting-polls, Dino-mode is comin!

    Considering the feedback in the polls, I'm def doin both modes :) 

    You and me both! :rock  It's such a clean & simple design, and strangely gratifying at the same time to look at.

    I wish I'd included that one in the polls! Dammit. :(  He'll be done early on though, was a solid core-character! :rock 

    Well after Grimlock, I think Shockwave will take priority over Soundwave, but he'll be getting his love soon too, don't worry!

    Oh, stop it you :tongue:  :eek: 

    Now Arcee would be a fun build! I've also been thinking outside the realm of TFs and considering a Halo Master Chief or even a Robocop...

    Thanks for the vote, comments and feedback! Don't worry, Starscream is a must-build for this line and will be coming fairly soon :)

    Now your Optimus has his arch enemy ready to battle.

    This idea you've come up with of simplifying transformers is the work of a genius, I absolutely love Megatron as was the same with Optimus.
    They're so well done dude :thumb
