    it always bugged me that Dr. Archeville's fate was never resolved, then I got a idea, from Brakedown/Silas and with a lot of help from my fellow partner in crime POSSESSED_DIGIT. we took a junker MP Skywarp and made Dr. A a new "body". the backstory is short and simple. ole Doc found a dead Decepticon Warrior and made himself a new body out of it, as you can see hes on life support (like Silas) inside the cockpit. we added a "tool arm" with multiple attachments and I beat the crap out of him with a soldering iron and a wire wheel.

    I am thinking about adding a right leg to match the arm, im open to all feedback and sugestions

    If I may chime in here a little: this started out as SP having a messed up Takara MP Skywarp. Then I messed it up more trying to do something for him. Then after sitting on it for a year or so I got a piece from a mp acid storm to fix it. Then SP liked the idea of mixing mp seeker parts. Couple that with the little Dr Arkeville figurine & this idea was born. What's not pictured is all of Arkey's weapons. SP & I initially wanted it to have a tool hand made from the claw hand of ultra BM Jetstorm. But then I got the idea for using knex parts to make interchangeable tools. I had an old junky Swiss Army knife and ripped out every tool it had and added the knex joints to them. Then I mounted probably a dozen knex balls to arkeys back. I also had a couple old animated ratchet tool heads and used them too. From these pix i can see SP did some further modding. Glad he liked it. Hope you all do too!

    Might I suggest using a table lamp for illumination to take better photos, the current ones obscure a lot of detail.
