Hey everybody, here is my entry for the TFCon Charity Project 2012, benefiting SABIS.
Waspinator sick of being tiny insect that people squash! Waspinator, TERRORIZE!
For this project I decided that I wanted to emulate the Toy version of Waspinator, rather than the On Screen variety. Like most early Beast Wars toys, Waspinator came with 2 heads. One head that resembles something we'd see in G1, a robot. The other, a mutant monstrosity, emulating his Beast Mode, a deadly and aggressive Wasp. I set my goal to make this the focal point of this custom. I hope you enjoy
Waspy in his Helicopter mode:
Waspinator Terrorize!
"Waspinator sick of being target practice, Waspinator show EVERYONE he is serious now!"
"Waspinator hide face, show everybot who is master now!"
'WASPINATOR IS BORN AGAIN!"

The mask is built from a Kamen Rider S.H.Figuarts toy. Points to anyone who guesses which one!
The Shoulders/intakes are bicycle reflectors.
One of the biggest things that I was going to leave out was the ability to store his mask in Vehicle Mode. HOWEVER, by COMPLETE ACCIDENT, that feature was automatically built in. All you do is put the mask upside down on his face XD
I hope you all enjoy, AND I WILL SEE YOU ALL AT TFCON!
