So my latest custom is of G1 Sparkbot Sizzle who is a heavy modification of the POTP Tailgate figure, modified parts are a new chest and Head from shapeways, ive cut and extended the hood of the car with some styrene to give it more of that drag car look, the arms have also been extended with more styrene and with the wheels moved upwards to fit with the new place of the wheel wells. the new rear wheels are from the DOTM Roadbuster figure, the side pipes are from the pipes ends of the TR hotrod Figure and finally the engine intake is of a Warhammer 40K Ork trukk kit. Thoughts, honestly i really like him it was fun to work on a legends dude.
That is awesome, truly awesome. I love the extra details you put into it, really makes him Sizzle (ba-dum-tsh!)
I realized after I posted that you lengthening the hood. The little things refer to the pipes and engine intake. So many people do Sizzle as a repaint of a pre-existing mold, but don't add the drag car parts to complete the aesthetic
Definitely my favourite one of the original trio. As soon as I saw him at the top it brought it all back for me as I always thought both car and robot mode looked cool as f#!k. Done a great job there mold works suprisingly well
