    Hey Everyone, Tanukiyasha here with another great custom!

    How long has it been since we've seen a REAL target-master toy? Well I just made one!


    I had a lot of leftover parts from other projects, and I got bored one night, so this was the result. XD

    Hope you guys like. =3

    The handle has an unfortunate placement in robot mode.

    The answer to your question of how long is earlier this year :p  Cyclonus is awesome.

    Does he have a third mode? I only ask because I see a lot of things that could have been removed to allow the barrel to fold back and allow him a head

    Nice gun mode. Robot mode needs a head.

    Unless you're going for the Mekaneck look.

    I love the idea, but I see that you used the Mini-Con Concorde as a starting point - why didn't you just adapt the existing nosecone assembly into the main barrel?

    Still, if I ever get a wild hair to cut up some Mini-Cons, this is an idea I'm stealing.

    I think it's cool, use it for an SWTF, cause his bot mode looks just like IG-88!

    I absolutely LOVE this custom. Could you describe your materials and such you used for this bash? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like you used an Armada Minicon Jetstorm for your base? What other materials did you use? Some LEGO TECHNIC parts as well?

    As a huge fan of Targetmasters and TM customs, I have to say that this is very inspiring. :thumb

    Thanks! I'm glad you really like it!

    Actually the main base of the body was scrap plastic from Megaman NT Warrior swords, while I uses the leftover bits from both the Minicon Jetstorm and his counterpart that forms the other half of the blade for the Armada Star Saber. For the head, bottom feet, and gun barrel, I used normal lego parts, rather old parts though.

    This all happened when I messing around with scrap parts and plastic on a very boring night. XD
