WFC War Axe - WIP

Hey guys. I've been given permission to show photos here of a project I've been working on with a new group. Its for a WFC trailer accurate War Axe, for WFC Prime. Below are photos of the first prototype. At the moment, the blades are not translucent. I am still prepping the axe, so I can do some color castings for sample use. So the next photos will be of the axe in color, with translucent orange blades. Design wise, this is as close as I could get to what was shown in the trailer. I did make some minor changes to help make parts be stronger, when they go into production. I'm also working on a WFC style Ion Blaster, and other weapons. We can never have enough axes.

Full details are still being worked out, so I can't spill all the beens. The plan is for this to be released at retail. The purpose of this thread is just to show the progress on this axe. The group that is behind this will make full announcements when they are ready. So please don't ask about preorders, as I'm just the designer for this project.

Please note, the sword and ion blaster are from my Classics Prime and Megatron sets. I just thought it'd be cool to show them off with WFC Prime.

Nothing short of awesome, as usual.

Does this mean the Classics weapons sets for OP and Megs is just around the corner?

Thanks man! I pretty much prayed to God the hands on WFC prime could rotate around. And it looks like my prayer was answered. Otherwise, he would not be able to 2 hand the axe at all.

The Classics prime and megatron weapons are my own project. So its being planned to be released after Blaster's upgrade. But I've been given a proposal by the new group, to have it manufactured. As it would bring the cost of the set down by 50% or so, depending on factors. Plus, give it a higher quality product. So I'll know in the next month or so if I will still release those two kits myself, or if I'll work with the new group.
