Alas poor Energon Miners (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php/29919-Energon-miner) you were gone too soon...

Realised the shoulders on classics deluxe Megatron were a good enough attachment for a custom Rack 'n' Ruin!

The heads are classic Cyclonus heads covered in sculpy.

The anvil is from my parts box - I think it was from the guts of a classics deluxe Optimus.

The hammer is the handle from the combiner feet that came with PotP Starscream/Elita-1.

I like the way they worked out!

I don't suppose there's really a viable vehicle mode is there?

Thanks
I hadn't thought that far. In theory they could be pulled apart, transformed and stuck back together - but they'd each have half a turret and it would look odd.
Might give it a go when I'm bored ;)

I've never really understood G1 Rack'n'Ruin. They are two distinct robots connected at the shoulder. Just get out an Energon Axe, cut them apart at the shoulder and give them a new arm.

At least with the more recent version of Rack'n'Ruin they are more like a single robot with two heads. Something that can't be easily undone.
