    Hi guys,

    In pursuit of several customs, I am looking for any suggestions that could fit this mold.

    Regarding turtle, I will be using BW Decepticharge with a modified back and added cannon.

    1) A fish but in Deluxe size

    2) 2 headed dragon/tiger – deluxe size

    3) Mouse or similar to resemble Blot – Abominus G1 - BLOT – deluxe size

    4) Single headed dragon with wings – deluxe size

    5) Drill vehicle – deluxe size – Computron G1 – Nosecone

    Thanks,

    Kelvin

    1) I would also recommend original Cybershark or Sharp Edge.

    2) Sinnertwin?

    3) I'd recommend perhaps kitbashing a Star Wars Telosian Tank Droid. Don't know if Hasbro's ever made a toy of that - but WotC did make a gaming miniature.

    4) There's TM2 Megatron/Cryotek. If you're looking for something Deluxe size... umm... Beast Changer?

    5) Machine Robo Drill Robo. I see Machine Robo toys (I don't know if they're KOs) at Big W - I think they're called "Machine Fighter" or something. You might be able to get the old Machine Men/Gobot version for cheap, but they'd be small.

    Hey Gok and Gutsman,

    Thanks guys for the suggestions. They are a great idea. Particularly, the Machine Robo... I know the ones you are talking about. Never thought of that.

    The others are great. I will have another look tonight to see what may fit also and let you know what I am up to..

    Thinking of doing a Piranahcon and Abominus Gestalt.

    Any suggestion on a head for Piranahcon?? The G1 one seems quite good or was thinking of using an MP Prime head, create a mouth (square) paint it black and then kitbash the sides and the crown at the top.

    But maybe the G1 head will do it justice...

    If this is for Skalor then Injector would be good. As one of history's greatest pegwarmers he shouldn't be too expensive either.

    Blot's a mouse? Wouldn't that make Sinnertwin scared of him?

    the $5.50 I payed my MISB one last year lends credibility to your suggestion!

    I bought some of those machine robo figures to practice my painting on, they hold up alright, and for the most part paint up well. Definitely worth a look at, since they are so cheap.
