    One. It has a big part in robot mode that dissapears in vehicle mode, and a part in vehicle mode that dissapears in robot mode. I'm trying to make one part transform into the other and it works in my mind but I'm having trouble building that.

    I've had to put my customising on hold since I sold my house a year and a half ago. I'm hoping to start a few small projects soon.

    What I have to finish:

    Minimum Ambus from Clocker.
    Hooligan from Leader Jetfire.
    Painting oversized ko's of the Pretender Monsters.
    Sky Quake from Leader Skywarp.
    Skyfall from Titans Return Highbrow.
    Gripper from Off Road.
    Flywheels body from TR Megatron.
    Astrotrain from Energon Omega Supreme.
    Inner robot Cloudburst from Classics Jetfire.
    Getaway from G1 Boss.
    Joyride from G2 Jetstorm.

    Customs I'm considering:

    Rapido or Natron from Cyberverse Armoured Prowl.
    Slicer from Cyberverse 1-step Wheeljack.
    Several Siege Seekers based on the background Cyberverse Seekers.
    Siege Skywarp from Thundercracker as he's overpriced on EBay.
    Siege Red Wing

    That's a great list!
    I may have missed it, any original characters on your idea list?

    Thanks. No original characters. There are enough official characters that I'd like.

    Monstrosity Megatron (From Siege Megatron, first release)
    IDW Galvatronus (torso, made from CW Cyclonus)
    Galvatron II (from TR Overlord)

    I’m either waiting on parts or beginning to paint.
