    Default Pirates!

    Hi,

    As with each year BotCon set announcement I start dreaming up 'my ideal set' based on the theme. Warning: This makes you sad when it doesn't come true

    So Pirates! have been revealed as half of this years set and I have dreamt up a Pirate ship crew that I'd like to see some group shots of. I only own Beast Hunters Ratchet so I am a bit short of this lot. Other crew members are floating around but the solid favourites to board the Rumb Line are:

    Prime molds:
    Thundertron as Loxotron - The peg-legged Captain who dooms the crew
    Breakdown as Brushguard - The muscle
    Knock Out as Runamuck - With his long spear
    Beast Hunters Ratchet as Cannonball - Starts a mutiny and becomes the leader
    Wheeljack as new character or Downshift - His dual swords do look piratey.

    Actually I think they all look piratey. Can someone pose and post this scurvy lot in bot and alt modes please. Bonus points for adding the Arms microns below (because these pirates like the melee weapons and pirates have pets)..

    Arms micron molds:
    Rhino hammer for Cannonball - Fold his wrist 90 degrees down so the hammer handle would continue on straight from his forearm (see Cybertron Cannonball).
    Meat cleaver or two for Breakdown -
    A good sword one for whoever else.

    Some nice ideas there. Although there's been a Slicer or two, a purple sword wielding pirate Wheeljack could work. Sounds like a pirate name.

    I've got a few more ideas, but might get out photoshop and do some digibashing first. (I do like to do a digibash)

    I do intend to try a digibash but i first just wanted to see how they looked together.

    Hi all,

    This is a photo request.

    Can someone help out and post some group bot and alt pics of TF:Prime Breakdown, Thundertron, Knock Out, BH Ratchet, Wheeljack.

    If you can put any together for a shot that will help.

    Ta,

    I wasn't sure if you were asking for images, digibashes, or just ideas...

    I was going to suggest Raindance and Grandslam, for a different "pirate" reason... but hey, there could be some background in-joke included for the fans of reeeeally obscure stuff.

    Oh i agree, and the idea of FoC data disks as loot was a good one also. I had some other ideas posted here earlier too but then realised it was moving away from my request for pics so i edited them out for now.
