first off,props go out to tfw2005 board member "hippietrooper"!!!
after seeing his i just had to have one!!

instead of him being only a repainted g1 skullcruncher,i went and added in some evtra ball joints and articulation too.in short,no more g1 brick bot.
to try to make him like a updated version of the character,i tried to also incorporate alot of g1 elements into him too.

mods are=

g1 ultra magnus head repainted as prime,with a post taken from bw's transmetals airrazor's pontoons.
g1 smokestacks from g1 u/m added.
g1 u/m lower calve halves,specifically to give him toe (diecast g1 toes)articutation and add more weight and "beef".
skullcruchers rear alligator fin things were lopped off and repositioned to accommodate the needed room on his legs for the new toes.
g1 u/m chest grill was chopped in half and screwed above and below his waist rotation point.
original pivot post in his legs was cut down and fused in place.now he can do the splits.
balljointed hips/crotch and upper thighs from a cybertron deluxe smokescreen were added to his chopped off g1 thighs.
ball joints and upper arm cups were taken from a bw inferno,giving his arms full rotation,etc.
his two bfg shoulder cannons can also be held as giant cannons,both built from g1 mangnus bot arms with 3/4" spacers added for the barrels.
black rifle is a repainted k/o version.
wheels on his legs are from the same cyb. smokescreen fig.
the sword is from bionicle i think but i could be wrong.
later on,because his chest flap flips down,i still want to try to find a way to turn it into a matrix chamber or something.

Crickey! Today we're huntin this great beast from the depths. A real beaut, the great red croc has been sighted all over new Cybertron City's sewers and rumour has it that his lair's just around the bend. If we're lucky, we can head over and poke him with a stick!

Great work. Needs a Megatron croc hunter counterpart though.
