I love to see people out articulation on old G1's. It makes me wish I could do it, but I would get mad and break it probably.

This is pretty much the finished product for my figure, I may add hands but not sure

That's awesome! I can't believe he still transforms!

Noble, very impressive! Any more plans on customizing?

Noble- Looks great! your subtle use of Lego joints looks good, especially since it's yet-unpainted! Hands would be easy to add, you could just cut out the old ones from the inside of that panel, and glue in new ones... or fill in the current hands and just carve in some finger lines?

thanks for the comments guys

I was thinking of maybe going the OP look and making new holes in the ends of the arms. Then add OP fists so that they could be removed when transformed and I wouldn't really need to mod the arms.

not too sure yet CM, I was thinking of doing a repaint soon but will be on the look out for a new articulation project.

so here's 2 projects I did over the hols, both however don't transform they are just models but i thought I would post them up anyway.

this is a model unicron I made, he actually lights up but I can't get it to show up very well on camera. he just sits on my desktop lol

This is my version of BM megatron,I gave him his wires on the back of his head along with some custom decals and a stand so he appears to float, which I also left its original colour of red inside the model so as at certain angles he looks to sort off glow red or be hiding his dragon form inside his cloaked body.he was made from a transmetal megatron and styrene.I painted him night bue and then brybrushed silver over that to give him more of his robotic feel.The original toy wasn't show like enough for me, mine may not transform but I think he looks pretty cool all the same

I like your unicron, noble.

Has anyone done much customizing with the movie figures? I'm thinking of converting the Rescue Ratchet from an ambulance to a red firetruck (maybe Red Alert?) and I'm curious if the 'Automorph technology' will make it prohibitively difficult to disassemble and reassemble.

nice work noble especially on unicron

I thought I'd post up my recently completed G1 galvatron repaint, I painted him with humbrol purple and a custom grey colour and then added custom stickers to his belt, arms, shoulders(can't see the shoulder stickers in pics just realised), abdomen, crown and waist. I have also added clear red plastic behind his eyes so they don't look so hollow anymore, and they glow red when you push the button now lol.also I don't know if it is visible but in cannon mode when lighting the barrel the colour has a lot more depth to it and a sort of reddish tinge

thanks for looking.
