Pictures of G1 Decepticon Base?

Does anyone know where I can get some good pictures of the underwater decepticon base?

I am building a diorama for WST. I need some pictures of the exterior to base my design on, but I am having a little difficulty finding some.

I will also be building the tower that extends out of the water for launch.

I am hoping to have that and the autobot base done this summer.

Thanks for the help guys.

The Nemisis wasn't their base though.

Yeah it was, after they rediscovered it, they reclaimed it as their base of operations in G1.

Nope. They only rediscovered it in 1 episode. It was buried somewhere, and Megatron retrieved the power core and supercharged himself.

Their regular headquarters was actually their new ship that Mirage blasted from the inside, making it crash in the ocean in More Than Meets the Eye, part 3.

Wow, thanks guys, you're the best.

I will post some pics once it is built. Unfortunately building a house right now and it takes up more time

But this will be the follow up to give my WST's a home.

Yeah, but for the rest of the series their base was at the bottom of the ocean in the Nemesis.

No, the Nemesis is the name (given in Beasties) of the Decepticon's ship from Cybertron.
Here's a timeline to clear up eveything. While Beasties added their spin and name, it actually fits into the G1 universe nicely.

-4 Million years ago, G1. Megatron's ship Nemesis blasts off from Cybertron, ambushes the Ark (comic name for Autobot ship) in space, and supposedly crashes on Earth: location unknown.

-1 Million years ago (or whatever), Beasties. Tarantlus finds the Nemesis in the ocean and repairs it. BW Megatron & Dinobot 2 relaunch it, fight the Maximals, and it recrashes: location unknown.

-1984, G1. The Decepticons are reactivated by the Ark, and immediately go build a New starcruiser to return home. After launch, Mirage blasts it down from the inside, and it crashes in the ocean.

For the rest of Season 1 & 2, this crashed Starcruiser is the Decepticons underwater base.

-1985, G1. Megatron discovers the Nemesis buried in solid ground. He retrieves its power core and supercharges himself.
Perceptor, Bumblebee, & Brawn shrink into World's Smallest Transformers, enter Megatron's system, and remove the power core before it explodes and destroys them all.

Re: Pictures of G1 Decepticon Base?

Ahhh...for some reason I thought that the ship in the ocean was the Nemesis...probably because of Beast Wars and I always wondered how it got into the ocean when at the end of Beasties it crashed on land...
Thanks for clearing that up JL....I'll let Sabrina know you say Hi when I make her breakfast.....hehe
