Fallen Heros Sandstorm

[racerguy76]

Once again I was asked to do a custom for Cybertron.ca's 2011 charity auction. This is my contribution. The head is from a generations Blurr and the fists/weapons are from a ROTF Brawn. The body is a TFM Armorhide.

WIP photos can be found in the Fallen Heros thread http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showthread.php?t=30003

Fantastic. I would buy that in a heartbeat!

[CyberMnky]

Dude, that's awesome!! I love the bullet hole in the windshield!! Do his guns store anywhere?

[Sludge2007]

Really good dude!

[racerguy76]

Thanks guys!

The clips of his guns can slot into the step bar at the back. One on each side.

[Robimus]

That works really well. Great job! Does he have a faction symbol?

[SanMiguel]

pristine clean.....too clean!

[Stapler]

I knew Sandstorm would turn out great, bud! Job well done. :)

Awwwww yeeeaaaa! Top drawer Kid! Top drawer! :raisetheroof:

[chans formers]

flava flav: YYYYEEEEEAAAAAAH BOOOOOOOOOYYYYY!!!!!

awesome results!!!!!!:clapping:

[shockwing]

the paint job caught my eyes

[racerguy76]

Thanks! I wanna keep him. :)

He does not have a faction symbol at this time. I heard rumors of another sticker party, so I will leave it up the the crew that will be displaying them during tfcon. :)

[Echotransformer]

Silver faction symbol?

Loving this, just loving this!

Hot Diggity Dog. This is great.

Can't wait to see the rest of the fallen heroes.

Hot Diggity Dog. This is great.

Can't wait to see the rest of the fallen heroes.

You won't be disipointed, bud, but racerguy's Sandstorm has proven to be one tough act to follow. :D

[racerguy76]

Thanks!

Silver or black would make a good faction symbol I think.

I can't wait to see the rest either.

[JonoPrime]

Great looking custom there, dude! Now if only Hasbro could make a Classic version of him :)

[racerguy76]

Thanks JP!

I would love to see Hasbro bring a new line of classic triplechangers too. Astrotrain and Tankor(Octane) were cool, but where is Blitzwing, Broadside, Sanstorm and Springer? I hope they use some of the new movie cash to engineer a couple more.

[Malwave]

talk about a makeover dude; if I hadn't known it was Armorhide under there, I'd have no idea :D

[brr-icy]

awesome job man, very clean

[CBII]

Looks awesome.

Excellent use of Brawn's hand guns.

[BScorpinok75]

Awesome! I want me one now.

[racerguy76]

Thanks for all the positive remarks!


Awesome! I want me one now.

Heehee. Me too....

[Jarodimus, Eh?]

I'm now the lucky owner of this fantastic toy.

racerguy76, you did amazing work! I would never guess that he wasn't originally produced in these colors if I didn't know better. The new head, hands, and feet change him from a good RotF toy to a superb Classics one.

Thanks so much for making this!

[racerguy76]

Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad it went to a good home, and to be honest I was wondering who ended up with him. This was one hard custom to package up and send away, but it was for a good cause. I'm proud to say some of my best work went into him and I am pleased your so happy with him.

[Sideslap]

This is greatness that bullet hole is just amazing along with the rest of it.
