Thanks, guys!  Here is 'nother TF, this time one w/ a SW alt-mode: a Turbo Tank!

Alpha Strike, Autobot bounty hunter






The body is from the "Commander Cody Clone Turbo Tank" SW/TF crossover fig, and the head is a swap from the parts bin.  The radar dish, main firearm, shoulder-mounted blasters and back-up blaster are all magnetic.

Awesome transformer.  I really like those dinobot mandos.  The dinobots were the best subdivision.  I also like that snow patrol arc group.  Keep it up and get Slag to us soon!

Thanks, WB.  I actually used to customize TFs all the time, then moved into SW figs.  I'll post more in the future.  Meanwhile, here is another custom.  'Member a long time ago in this particular galaxy when Gundam Wing was new on Cartoon Network and Bandai released a slew of snap-together Gundam models?  This used to be a "Gundam Heavyarms", repurposed into an Optimus Prime.

Gundam Optimus Prime!  Complete with blaster, combat blade and flightpack borrowed from Sideswipe in that one G1 episode where that happened.  The dirt and dust aren't weathering...it's real.  GOP has been on my shelves for a looooong time.  He's attached to that base 'cause his legs went all wobbly.




Here GOP is showing a Stormie he means bidnez:   For scale purposes...for those who don't know 'bout these Gundam model figs.

Thanks, JMT!  The TF/SW fig is actually one of the Star Wars Transformer cross-over figs from several years ago.

Thanks, everyone! 

Silver Rider...that feeling that you are feeling is called a nerdgasm!

The Mandalorian...this OP don't f*** around, kinda like the Bayverse version.

Here's some more oldies.  Or "Darth Optimus Classics" if you will.  I am waiting on a paycheck to purchase items to wait on them to be delivered so's I can finish several WIPs.  *whew*  That's a mouthful!

Alien Borg Drone. 





Group Shot!  Everybody stare sullenly with dead, soul-less eyes!



Also, here he is with the Stormie from my last post, Trooper #NCC-1701 "Dale", for scale purposes.  Poor Dale, he can't catch a break!


I dunno who made the body.  I got it at the very first X-Files convention here in Texas way, way (WAY) back when.  I customized it shortly thereafter.  It's got bits of car and airplane models along with whatever else I could cram on it.  One of my first custom figs EVAR (and it shows).  Enjoy!

I bet Dale is gonna take a vacation to Alderaan pretty soon.  He just doesn't want to die on theTantive IV. ;)
