Armada MEGATRON
What's the biggest complaint everyone has about Armada Megatron? His totally unposable legs. Well, Jason fixed that... The joints that were used were the knee and swivle joint attached to the upper leg from Tigatron, the lower leg portion of the knee and the sockets for the hips are from DepthCharge, and the balls for the sockets are from Rampage. This alteration was the impetus for one of our many ideas for possible Unicron.com accessory packs that never came to fruition. The difference with this idea, is that final 3D models, and even one round of resin prototypes were produced. We decided last minute to can the production of this accessory pack due to timing, perceived interest, and the relatively high production cost involved. Check our our short homage to the Unicron.com Armada Megatron Leg Kit that never was (or ever will be).
Transmetal 2 MEGATRON
Transmetal 2 DINOBOT
Perceptor started altering TM2 Dinobot by doing some minor face resculpting/painting. The only major change was given to each hand, making the slasher claw/fore-finger a separage joint from the thumb (which can articulate). Click the link to see How to alter your own TM2 Dinobot!
CYBER-RAPTOR
To make the Cyber-Raptor Perceptor started with a Jurassic Park velociraptor toy, he added cyber components & sculpted them to look like it does in the show. He used light gray and white spray paint & hand painted the cyber parts w/ light blue/chrome paint.
BEAST WARS RAVAGE
Perceptor made Ravage starting w/ a TM Cheetor (Hey, that's what Mainframe used!) The arms are from an original Cybershark and I re-molded an original Tigatron beast head to make Ravage's. The chest was sculpted almost entirely from scratch.
TRANSMUTATE
Perceptor made Transmutate cutting and blending various parts from several different toys including a Manga Curse, a Tigatron, an Aliens figure, and a "Meched-Out Gargoyles". Certain parts like the face and hand were made/sculpted from scratch.
Transmetal CHEETOR
Transmetal Cheetor was sooo close to the show, yet just a little off in robot mode. Never fear, he was a perfect candidate for Alteration treatment! You know that gnarly grin they gave him? Yea, we didn't like it either! I also fixed the coloring of the face and chest plate. by: Jason
TRANSMETAL MEGATRON
I resculpted Megatron's face to give it sharp pointy things & re- molded the shark-tooth grin to make it look like it does in the show. The brown plastic was easily turned black with a permanent marker. I highly recommend doing this folks, it's easy and it makes a huge difference. by: Perceptor
