    CHUG Brawn updated 12/13/12

    I started with a Cyberverse Commander Bulkhead figure. I cut down his chin to resemble faceplate. I then added some plastic bits to the sides of the head, then shaved them down to go with the contours of the head. I added two little gas cans to the rear of the vehicle. I made his two weapons from some gundam parts I had lying around. I added the targeting sights on his arms from an old G1 micromaster head. They were originally little missle pods. I took the paint scheme from images of the GDO Brawn and tweaked it a bit. I thought the GDO Brawn was a great idea but just too large to fit in scale wise with the rest of my collection. Any questions please ask and I'll do my best to answer. Please be kind with feedback. :)  I'm no photographer so I had help in taking these.

    Updated pics so as to show size comparision and scale. Hope you enjoy.

    Ya know, off the bat it's a quirky idea, but in the end, I really dig this! It's very, cute. Good work! :D

    The robot mode looks good. I'm not too sure about the front of the vehicle though. Not saying it's bad, just saying it didn't strike me right. But it works perfect for the robot mode though, so no complaints considering the scale.

    Ingenius way to help change his appearance with the shoulder flaps folded down instead of back. That and the head help differentiate him from Bulkhead.
