A fun idea I had and others started to mention.













Kalidor
What, no Laserbeak?

I'm pretty sure I want that. On my shelf. By Friday.
Ursa Magnus
Yeah, no kidding. I am SORELY tempted to bid on that sucker. icon-silverbolt.gif

I seriously want a Cannonball from every line from G1 until now.

Cheets, I may commission you to repaint my Reptillion into a BW Cannonball. icon-arcee.gif

Since I'm not likely to get my Crumplezone custom done anytime soon... <_< I'm happy that discussion lead to something so soon. Cause that's damn nice Cheets
Cheetimus Primal
I was already working on it when you guys started mentioning it. I left the "sigh" because dammit, that was my idea!
Destron D-69
oh sure .. you say that now, LOL
Cheetimus Primal
Well I wasn't gonna say it before icon-waspy.gif

*whimper*
MrBlud
That's...AWESOME icon-ironhide.gif

Is the wrecking ball from the mechtech monstrosity that comes with Prid BH or is it the FE's wrecking ball?
Cheetimus Primal
From the Mech Tech pile of parts. Removed and modified.

I suspect it's just a product of the photos, but the gold limbs look really close to the original color, and so it hits less like Cannonball and more like Bulkhead with a Cannonball-branded t-shirt. But again, I'd have to think the gold doesn't skew that close to green in reality.

Umm... huh?



I think you need your monitor checked.
Kalidor
I don't think it skews that close to green in any reality except your color settings.
ExVee
I'm not gonna disagree, especially since I don't want it to seem like I don't dig this, cause I do.

yay look how awesome my idea turned out icon-arcee.gif

What kind of gold paint did you use? It looks fantastic. I have an unfinished Cannonball made from CD Red Alert and I used Model master Gold and It doesn't look too good. It looks like you had painted it a tan and then gave it a dry-brushing.
Cheetimus Primal
I used Citadel's yellow foundation then went over that with Model Master's Brass.
Kalidor
If I had to point out a negative it would probably be that I'm not crazy about those bright yellow headlight trims. I realize his Cyberton lights were 'yellow' but that just seems more like a cost cutting paint job than an actual intended color choice.

Cheetimus Primal
I would agree as it throws off the balance.
Detour
That is a thing of beauty.
Destron D-69
to the headlight issue.. one must remember that the dread pirate Cannonball was not always the dread pirate Cannonball

leftovers perhaps?
Wingus
I would be tempted to bid on this, but as it has destroyed everything I have in the vein of pants, I need to replace those instead. icon-screamer.gif
HeyMickey
God, I love unexpected customs. This is a brilliantly creative idea and perfect execution. The replication of the skeleton graphics is top notch! icon-silverbolt.gif
Kalidor
No one is jumping on this so I might get it for a steal like I did movie Shockwave.

Yay for me, boo for you!
Destron D-69
i'm just waiting for it to go as high as it should have started, Cheets undervalues his starting price... icon-screamer.gif
