    The latest thing to come from my recent obsession with diaclone and similarly scaled things is this Steampunk-esque monstrosity. The saucer still separates and a bunch of it glows, and but my favorite part is probably that the minicon partner has a little Geordi Laforge-style visor. This is essentially the "Team Earth" counterpart to the Metroplex and Tidal Wave in my collection.

    I like big saucers and I cannot lie.... sorry, couldn't help myself! This is pretty cool!

    Did you consider adding warp nacelles to the pylons? I take it the legs are meant to be those, but I think they'd work well on those, and would hang rather gracefully on his back. Maybe detachable as weapons too....

    Honestly I didn't, largely because the ship I used didn't have them. The idea for them to be weapons would have actually been pretty cool though.

    A lot of people have pointed out the lack of nacelles, and you know what? They were all right to do so. To that end I scrapped the previous minicon (it may possibly end up as a diagnostic drone) and created two "Nacelle Drones". The arms are from a line of smaller robots whose name I can't remember, and the head of one is from the white and green Hotrod Patrol member. Now the ship finally looks like a proper Connie-class.
