    Finally gotten that G1 Metrotitan custom as complete as I can get (at this time, hint hint...).

    Coming from an idea of wanting a Metrotitan but not having the major bucks for a real one, I had decided to make my own out of a junker Metroplex and whatever junk I had in my custom junkyard. Don't know if you would recognize some of the parts I used, but I used some KO parts (Devastator's fists, Optimal Optimus's guns, Abominus feet, etc.).

    Metrotank:
    Used a KO Brawl figure for him. Unfortunately, during painting, he slipped out of my hands and landed on the concrete floor. :(  It broke, so I had to get a used G2 Brawl for a replacement. His tank top comes from the middle part of OP OP's gun barrels, with Brawl's original turret and some minute add-on pieces for making him look different. I also modded another turret to go on top of the original. It plays as an add-on feature for the city mode.

    Very nice custom.

    And great idea of how to use Brawl as a tower in city mode.

    Nice use of the old zoids head, seeing one of those things brings back some memories, ahh the 80's, what a crazy decade

    I love it...even though he's my nemesis :lol 

    I recognize the Starriors piece on Brawl.

    I also like the use of a turntable to take pics from multiple angles :D

    Did I use a Zoids head for the Preds? Some of the pred parts are from this
    Anibot Squad PVC - Combiner - SirToys.com

    The Rampage and Headstrong heads came from some KO figures I found in Big Lots. They were kind-of like oversized powermaster engines with added parts that can form different animals or vehicles. Wish I knew what they were.
