Made from a RH Blaster torso, head and legs. The head antenna, tape deck buttons and speaker stuff in his legs were shaved off, then the speaker holes in his legs filled in with sculpy.

The arms are from a RH Thundercracker with the guns shaved off. They had to be superglued on because both the torso and arms had female joins.

The wheels are from a junker G1 Breakdown and the headpiece was cut from the plastic case of a figure. You may not be able to see it but there is a chest design on him; that too was cut from a plastic covering and glued into place.

:eek: OMG he looks awsome! Beachcomber is one of my favorite G1 transformers and he doesn't get the attention he deserves!

Keep up the great work

Thanks for the comments everyone.
Here's a modification to a previous custom - G1 Frenzy with Blaster's arms.
I wanted to set him apart from Rumble (more so than just colouration).
And that should be it - I am off on a family holiday for two weeks. Four kids in a car from Perth to Kalbarri.... :eek:
