    I've been really wanting to get my 13 Prime's up and running. MP 10V, Vector Prime, Alpha Trion, those are easy. Figured the easiest one to build would Nexus. Got an Onslaught for Mainspring. Blades will serve as Chainedrive. Brawl for Cannonspring, and for the Junkion Pinion?
    Well, I've already demonstrated my love of using helicopters to make bikes. Seems to me a Junkion has pretty much GOT to be a bike or a Jeep. So, picked up a cheap Blades, used him to upgrade my Scrapheap into a component of a Prime. All toll the build only took about an hour and a half. Can't paint yet due to weather.
    Now I know a helicopter becoming a dirt bike isn't great, but it's the best option I could come up with. Don't like the street bike look OK deluxe Groove, so here's my Pinion.
    Please, let me know what you think?

    Never thought the Blades mold would work as a bike. Well used!

    You are going with the Aligned Nexus instead, right?

    Indeed. I'm an IDW G1 guy, but the individual components were never identified. I like the story from aligned.

    I'd vote for a full on Junkion Combiner, with the Hotspot mold retooled/repainted into Wreck'Gar (Animated) and a chest minion of... Wreck-Gar, of course!

    I Like where is this going!
    Now when you mention the IDW Nexus Prime, you mean the one mentioned in the Covenant of Primus?

    The one who was killed by Galvatron. Original owner of the Enigma. That's a pic of aligned Nexus. He's the o e I took the names of the 5 from because IDW never gave them names.
