    Has anyone done this yet? I haven't been able to find any pictures or anything. It's 4th or 5th on my list, so it's a long way off for me and I still haven't bought any of the parts, but here's a mock up.

    not that I am aware of. You should totally do it. Good luck finding a lio convoy to use though.

    I'd recommend using the smaller robot masters version. It would lead to cheaper parts.

    Lio Convoy isn't too hard to get loose. The robot masters Lio Convoy is actually USD$60 and up. Super rare. The regular is only about $35. It's the Liger Zero that's the back breaker at $50 and up complete. Anyway, I have a lot of other customs to finish before I worry about it. I can't believe this hasn't been done like three years ago.

    I think there was a Japanese kitbasher who did that with the Robot Masters version. I'll try to find pics of it later.

    I'm surprised I haven't seen one yet done yet, so this should be cool. Good luck with scrounging!

    I do support this idea, and am just as surprised that it hasn't been done yet... at least around here.

    It's actually kind of funny though, pre-beast Lio Convoy having a techno lion alt mode. Still I guess it's better than this.

    Yeah, I'm equally surprised no-one's done this. I just started and almost finished my Leader Roadbuster, so I'm one step closer. I haven't looked for Lio Convoy in a few months. Crap, it looks like he is starting to get rare. This is going to be hella expensive, maybe I should get a new job first.

    That robot mode is pretty sweet. The alt mode... I can do better. But first, I have a gun/tank Megatron hybrid to make. Does it even have a tail? And the front legs just disappear in bot mode. I expect more from the Japanese. Anyway, thanks for digging that up.

    Just won a fairly broken, stripped down Lio Convoy for $13, so I'll start a new thread in the customs section. I really hope the 1:52 Liger Zero is big enough and I really hope my Lio Convoy isn't yellow.
