Fallen Heroes Roadbuster

Was happy to be asked this year to participate in one of Cybertron.ca's charity projects, hopefully I get to again!

My contribution is Roadbuster! Originally I was going to use Ultra Onslaught for this but after seeing he was going to be used for Pyro I went with the good ol' Captain America crossover.

Started by removing all the stars and mesh stuff. Filled in the recesses in the feet. His head came from a seller on Shapeways, while the sculpt was good what showed up in the mail was really rough. Took a HUGE amount of work before I could paint it. Then he got ball joints in the neck and wrists pillaged from a Gundam kit.

Does Roadbuster need a sword? Sure why not? Sword and gun came from a Gundam astray mirage. He also comes with 2 sets of Gundam hands. His shoulder cannon came from an ROC Baroness.

For Vehicle mode I gave him an enormous cannon that came from some military weapons set for 12" figures. Also has an ammo can that attaches next to it. Gave him a set of headlights from a humvee model kit.

Painted him up with Citadel paints & scuffed him up with my Dremel. First time attempting battle damage... it felt wrong!

Same here. I was trying to place the parts and had to resort to the description. Great job!
