DOTM Deluxe Weaponized Roadbuster

I'm not much for customizing. For me, a hardcore custom involves black and silver sharpie to add paint detailing, and that's about it. Still, I wanted my DOTM Roadbuster to look more like his other Deluxe Wrecker brothers, so I decided to fiddle about and see what I came up with. Here's what I got so far.



The ROTF Lockdown engine is just kind of sitting there for now. I haven't come up with an easy answer to how to stick it there more officially. Might try magnet stripes.

The side cannons are from the original TFTM Bumblebee. Not so sure who the missiles belong to, but I like 'em. The riggin on top is a tortured DOTM Pinpointer (from HA Basic Tailpipe) with the guns from HA Basic Backfire added in.

Removing the hood is probably the only tricky thing I did. Also had to pop out the sliding mech-tech pieces on the doors to allow weapons in car mode.

Still being able to transform was essential for me, and none of the alterations effect the robot mode. The Pinpointer cannon can be fiddled with however you like, and I like the look of the Bumblebee cannons combined.

Again, no real place for the Lockdown engine. I'll figure out something for that in bot mode after I figure out a better way to attach it in alt mode.

Might still add some paint here and there, but otherwise I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, especially since I didn't cut off any of my own fingers while doing it. Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

Poor pinpointer haha. Looks cool though it would look better with more paint apps. Just FYI the missiles are from TFTM Overcast.

Aha! Yeap, there's Overcast, sitting on the shelf missile-less. Thanks.

I wanted to try using Animated Lockdown's engine, so it would be a massive engine with more guns, but that was way overkill.
