Transformers Kitbash Customised - Green Goblin ( ROTF Deluxe Skidz )

This is an old kitbash customised transformer I did to the movie Revenge of the Fallen ROTF Deluxe Skidz, back in January 2012.  I did not like the head sculpt of the ROTF Mudflap and Skidz, which I always thought the design style just doesn't fit into the rest of the robots/TFs in the movie-line... So when I completed the kitbash custom for Mudflap-to-Hellboy, I tried to do the same for Skidz.  In the end, I used a KO ROTF Sideswipe head to build into Green Goblin's and added some slashes of pink-purplish to fit more into Green Goblin's colour scheme... Yeap, face paint job is terrrible when look from near, but it will do for me... At least it is better than the original Skidz head, in my opinion...  Visit this post "Custom: Marvel Crossover - Green Goblin..." for more pictures of this figure.


 

Transformers Kitbash Customised - Hellboy ( ROTF Deluxe Tuner Mudflap )

 This is an old kitbash customised transformer I did to the movie Revenge of the Fallen ROTF Deluxe Tuner Mudflap, back in 2011.  I did not like the head sculpt of the ROTF Mudflap and Skidz, which I always thought the design style just doesn't fit into the rest of the robots/TFs in the movie-line... So when I saw the big arm and red colour of ROTF Mudflap, Hellboy comes into my mind (though is not the correct arm)... Anyway, used a KO Energon Rodimus's head to build into Hellboy's...

Transformers KO Galaxy Force Starscream Voyager Class Knockoff Bootleg

This is the KO Galaxy Force Starscream which is the Voyager sized one. It is only slightly simplified where the ratcheting joints and Cyber Key function are no longer there.  Bought in Taobao at SGD15.66 including shipping. This toy is made of the "shampoo bottle" type of plastic, which is very very flexible but not easy to file and paint. Quality is mixed. Joints are quite tight. Major misalignment when punching in the pin at chest swivel which needed a major op to re-pin it.  Pain chipping also evident in a few places. However, overall, this is a good (in my opinion) toy, as I am not against the this type of plastic used here. In fact, I always felt this plastic's characteristic helps increase the durability of the toy. Anyway, very happy to finally own a Galaxy Force Starscream mold.
