    I hadn't seen this one the first go-round but what I see, I like. I'd like to know a little more about what you've got planned with those Technic wheel connectors... :D 

    (also, while A-ronhide is a perfectly acceptable name, part of me wants to call him "Suckapunch".)

    You mean these?
    Somehow I didn't want to transplant Novastar's axles so I used these and by using LEGO 6628 Technic pins with ball joints, A-ronhide will also have a hover mode.

    Is that a reference to the A Team show or does he just look like the name would suit him to you? :D

    Yup. Missed 'em!

    Mostly just Mr. T's tendency to call people suckas, sucka! "Pityfool" sounds like a dork who gets his butt kicked, but is also a good TF-y name otherwise.

    This is one of the most underrated customs I've ever seen. Glad it's been brought back to life.

    Not an 80s/70s kid but I watched the A-Team as a kid on a channel for retro shows like it. That intro brings back so many memories!

    For a TF's name I'd change that into Pityfuel :tongue: 

    Thanks for the praise! I'll actually revive this soon-ish.
    I'm neither but close enough to have watched all of these great shows in my childhood on free TV, too.
