    At first: This is a non transformating Action-Figure. It's non-transforming cause I have the freedom to do this figure a lot more accurate. With doing it transformable you must sacrifice one or sadly both modes.

    Mods:

    New Feet
    New Armor
    New Head (Thx to Leathful Customs for the Tip!)
    Remolded Chest and Back
    Movable Blades

    Handpainted "Ferrari-Horse"-Emblem
    Reprolables Autobot-Sticker for the Head (just sliced in a half)
    More than 3 Days of work in complete

    Thank you guys!

    Yes it was my decision to use 2 shades of red (the Vibrant Red is painted on White Base, the Darker one on the Original Head), I like this a lot more, the Vibrant Red on the Head would made him too Cartoony

    Interesting!
    Blades are like real metal. And red color is very similar to original. In general figure is very good. But I would like to see more alive head, eyes are almost unnoticeable. Maybe put a blue LED in the head?

    Thx my friend

    The eyes are painted in metallic blue. Probably you'll never see electronics on my work, cause I really dislike it. I could add Lensflare, but I wanted to share no photoshopped pics

    Thx dude, answered the head thing one page earlier :) 

    What did you mean with "swords"?

    Thx man :) 


    Thank you, if you're interested, You can buy it, just shoot me a pm :)

    Love it!!

    I am so glad that my idea to use the Mixmaster head worked out for you,
    This custom is Awesome and you deserve a lot credit for this!

    I will let you ALL know right now! I gave TOTAL PERMISSION to use the idea for the Mixmaster head, Limewire never (stole) or (copied) any of my ideas.

    I have no issue whatsoever sharing ideas!

    Thanks! and keep up the great work Limewire!

    Yours sincerely

    LEATHFUL CUSTOMS!
