Hey all!

Just a nice little desktop Cyclonus I kitbashed together from a Legends Classics Starcream and a Legends Cybertron Jetfire. Had a blast doing it, I'll be adding some 'Con logos and touching up the paint. I forgot to paint the wing tips silver! Doh!!

Enjoy the pics, couple WIP pics too so you can see the parts used!

This was a melding of Legends Jetfire and Legends Starscream kitbashed together. Couple ball joints, some styrene fabrication and sculpted cockpit and BAM! Cyclonus is born! This was an unexpected 'bash, basically made from leftovers of my Bruticus Minimus project (glad I didn't throw this stuff out)!

Of course he benefits from my added articulation, let's see what he can do!

1. ball jointed neck
2. waist rotates 360 degrees
3. ball jointed knees
4. feet pivot (for transformation, but I added a little extra "toe-up" ability)
5. ball jointed shoulders
6. double ball jointed elbows (painted the balls red to look like the thrusters in flight)

So there he is, great poseability and really fun to TF. The TF sequence is a little more involved than you might think. I think I'm gonna do a video review so folks can see the TF sequence, since it's not quite what you might think!

Wow. Must've been hell working on such a small scale, but then again you're BigHank - master of tiny LEDs. Haha.

Seriously, awesome job! :)

This is really impressive. I've never thought to make a legends sized figure. Looks just like the Universe deluxe shrunk down. Bravo!!!!
