    At first I have to thank some Guys i met here: First Jin Saotome who inspired me so often, and brought me to TFW and to Customs with his Movie Wreckage Customs (Striker and Ninja-Version), I nearly learned all from his tutorials. Sometimes i copied his work (Protoform Bumblebee, CHUG Soundwave) to test myself if I could do the same like him (I never reached his skills ^^). Also have to Thank Frenzy_Rumble, without him, I had never tried to paint bigger figures than Deluxe-Size. The other Guys i have to thank are Superquad7, for many good discussions and a ton of good advises by him, without him I were already banne dforever, he cooled me down, when i needed help, thanks my friend, you're great!

    These guys here were my insiration, some of them I call my friends her eon the web: Z (aka Zildjan), AutobotX23, Unicron-9, Fakebusker83, Chris Morada (Never noticed that he was such a bad guy, but i know th shit he did, so i use him as my inspiration), Metallitron, Mechafacture, JCArtwork, Toby, LongHaul, G60Force and many many others! You're great!

    Why do i write this? This is cause, this is my last Custom for a long time i think, i change my home, and the monthly payments are so damn expensive, that i have to stop all my hobbies for a unknown time. Somebody will say: "God bless he's gone" and others will say "Sad, he's gone". Both i have to say: When my situation will ge tbetter, I'll come back for sure. I'll post sometime to other stuff and threads here and i hope i could do this.

    Thank you very much and God bless you all! Good Bye!

    I don't know if we'll ever see a official Version of an Weaponized Roadbuster created by Hasbro, but i think we will not get one. This is why i decided to TRY to create my own.

    Parts used:

    DOTM Deluxe Roadbuster
    DOTM Deluxe Topspin
    Saw
    Glue
    Paint (White, green, Silver, Iron, Gold, Yellow, Red,Black, Grey)
    Roadbuster Reprolables

    Hope you like it:

    That's absolutely awesome! Is it just a bit of clipping and gluing things on, or is there more to it then that?

    a bit? no, a ton? YES

    you have a ton of try and error to do, also some cuts on roadbuster himself, topsin has to die for this (it really hurts to kill such an awesome figure like this!), than glueing parts together.

    yesterday evening i started to paint the first coat of paint on this guy, hoe to finish him soon

    thx for the kind words mate :)

    It looks great! I might do something like this if I get the Twintwist/Leadfoot 2 pack. I already have Topspin, so I could sacrifice Twintwist...

    You're awfully self-critical for a guy doing such good work. :)

    Probably because people who never even attempted stuff like this like to talk trash and put their two cents in like movie critics.

    This by the way rocks!

    That's really nice. The new green parts match up well with the original green.
