    If you want a Ruckus I think power of the prime Beachcomber would work better.
    Minor/Repaint: - Power of the Primes Custom Ruckus

    Ultimately it's up to you. You can make Siege Hound work but it'll take a bit more to pull off that dune buggy look G1 Ruckus has.

    Now I have kingdom warpath, the t30 one is superfluous. So any ideas who t30 warpath could be repurposed as?

    I got Wal-Mart Deep Cover not long ago, and I plan on either using him as WFC Side Burn (as suggested by someone else on here whose name I'm forgetting) alongside Cordon as Prowl, OR if I can find the rest of the Axelerators he might be WFC Skram.

    Anyone got any tips on a good CHUG/WFC X-Brawn?

    Thought of these today, might have been mentioned already, but WFC Centurion Drone as Shattered Glass Brunt and Galactic Man Shockwave as SG Shockwave would both work well to add to the SG Decepticons

    I'm not doing shattered glass but it'll work as normal treds. Cheers!

    Not every one has Cybertron Primus and the Omega Lock that he comes with. Or the Gold Cyber Planet Keys that come with Metroplex, Scourge, Evac and Override.
    Doublecrosser as the Omega Lock.

    And the shield/ramp Battle Masters as the Cyber Planet Keys.

    Excited for the shattered glass Megatron, but sad it doesn't come with Megatron loyal side armed tank drone, Rumbler. I believe kingdom core class Megatron makes a good representation. Rumbler (SG) - Transformers Wiki

    Just realized that Siege Impactor could work as Shattered Glass Impactor since he has a purple Autobot logo

    The couple pages of this thread I've had time for so far have been great. I love creativity.

    Imagination is the finest of all drugs.

    I hear cocaine is also pretty nice but I'm not even about to get involved in things like that.

    Take all 6 of the CW Optimus Maximus components Optimus, Prowl, Sunstreaker, Mirage, Ironhide and Hotrod Swap the heads and you got a SG Stuntacons.

    So here's a question for SG repurposes, and there's gonna be some criteria for this question. I don't care about the official Funpub repurposes, are there any good repurposes that fit the following criteria:

    No faction logo (Centurion Drone as Brunt, Galactic Man Shockwave as Shockwave for example)
    Have appropriately colored faction logo for SG (Siege mass release Impactor)
    Have greyed/blacked out faction logos so that they're at least not the standard colors (dead Prime's trailer with SG Prime for example)
    More or less match aesthetically with WFC trilogy figures

    The only other one that really comes to mind is Takara United 27 Wipeout as SG Windcharger but upon closer examination Takara used normal faction logos rather than rub symbols on that release. Any others that fit the criteria that come to mind?

    I did see someone customising Siege Impactor in G2 Megatron's colorscheme. Not sure if the person did it as their SG Impactor, but I certainly would.
