    Default Omnibots completed: custom classics Camshaft

    Inspired by a smiliar design shown on tfw2005 by Crown (search there under "omnibots and stunticon").
    It was made from a DOTM Jolt. I figured his original colour was good enough (if there's a corner to cut I'll take it).
    The hardest part was finding shoulders that could fit on Jolt's shoulder posts. In the end I used RTS Perceptor's shoulders and RTS Wheeljack's forearms. They're a tad too big - in car mode the panels won't go flush - but I can live with that.
    I used a deluxe classics Prime head. That was also a tad too big for the space for the original Jolt head, so I had to trim the neck collar.
    His missile is a spare from a classics Prowl/Silverstreak/Smokescreen (one of them). It just sits in place in robot mode.







    And now the team is complete!

    I've always loved the omnibots so it's nice to see someone else hasn't forgotten about them

    Its also good to see Jolt getting put to some constructive use.

    Nice work snaketales!

    Good job! I especially like Downshift (who happens to be my favourite Omnibot... heh)

    Oh god! - He gots da crazy legs!
    Don't know if I'm terribly sold on the legs dude, but the rest looks pretty darn cool, maybe the chest could use a little something too as it looks somewhat bare.

    Yeah the legs are a bit funky but I think they're the best of the movie bunch. I think the car hood as the feet fits in with the G1 aesthetic.
    And I am thinking of getting some Omnibot stickers from Reprolabels for the finishing touch.
