    This modification was taken from another customizer here regarding his rendition of CW Menasor using Dark of the Moon Ultimate Optimus Prime's trailer/armor. I thought it was a brilliant concept and I had to do it myself. I had made some modifications myself that separated from the orginal customizer's comcept (sorry, I forgot who it was). One of the main modification that I did that different from him was using a CW extender ports for Menasor's arms. Also used a female CW port and attached them to the leg parts of the armor/trailer in super/combine mode to have Menasor's legs, to feature his car limbs more prominently which I think made Menasor more Menacing. Re-attaching and some mistransformation of the original trailer/armor parts from the original transformation, giving Menasor some sort of "wings backpack" similar to Freedom Gundam of the Gundam Seed Series. Again, I am no expert, not even close as a novice customizer level, but I just wanted to share my ideas. Thanks for looking. 20170111_182447.jpg 20170111_182524.jpg 20170111_183703.jpg 20170111_183903.jpg 20170111_185050.jpg Galvi with Menasor.jpg

    So many methods of making the bottoms of the cars become feet. So many options. It's inspiring.

    I thought combiners were supposed to be combiners, not mech suits. Kinda funny how each combiner next to it showcases what's wrong with this thing.

    I don't get it. 1) How is it a mech suit? 2) Are you suggesting that a little figure could fit in his legs?

    Yes, thank you very much. It was your prototype that made me copy your idea. The credit is all yours :)
