Pet dream projects?

[BigHank]

Hey guys, I was wondering if there's any particular custom figure your DYING to make, you know what I mean! Not the bread and butter, not necessarily the technically most challenging, but the one that would truly have you pouring your heart and soul into! Personally I would love to make a Rodimus out of the Corvette from Corvette Summer! I saw this movie when I was about 7-8, and it still ranks as my favorite customized car ever! It hit me a few years back that this could be the ultimte Rodimus! Whatcha think?

Also, since you can see I'm a huge Corvette fan AND a child of the seventies, I would love to do Frankenstein's Monster from the original 1975 Deathrace 2000!
He could be Shattered Glass Rodimus!

So let's hear about 'em gang! What are your dream pet projects?:D

[glorbes]

A fully scaled 1:18 scale Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, with removable panels, revealing a fully detailed interior.

[Solrac333]

Mine is the Ptitvte style Devastator.

[thyvipera]

i would love to try and make a masterpiece scaled Devastator. Ever since I saw Wikkid's WIP thread on those constructicons, I told myself "If I could ever master a huge custom like that, and execute it really well, I could die a happy man."

so maybe that? i dunno

[FREED]

A Masterpiece Devastator that is to scale with the Masterpiece Takara figures. SO that should give you a sense of how huge it'll be.

[blacklion29]

All combiners - CLASSICS STYLE! yeah baby... (dream big right?...lol)

[RyanUybengkee]

i'd like to go on a different combiner. One that has never been done before. i was thinking "Mighty Orbots". it only had 13 episodes, and every middle aged dude knows the mighty orbots: OH-no! LOL!

Depends on which scale you're going by. That would be awesome though.

[SteamFan42]

A Getter Robo figure that combines into all 3 different robots WELL.

[Altitron]

I actually started my dream project about four or so years ago. It is a 100% scratch-built, fully transformable Altitron figure.

However, it didn't take me very long to realize that I had a long way to go, skill wise, to be able to pull it off, though. Since then, I started small projects, like my Dawn of Future's Past Terrorsaur, and I began to snowball from there, going bigger and bolder - from the Jazz/Psycho reshell project to my perfect-transformation Predaking 2.0.

Here in a few years, after I have a few combiners put to bed (I have the figures sitting in my parts bin for Menasor and Bruticus), I'll pick up ole' Alty the Action Figure and get him finished.

Shit, can I have two? I have been meaning to do a Masterpiece Ravage for a long time. I have a box full of 2GB data tapes that will eventually all be frankensteined into Ravage. I'm not sure if I will be able to preserve the tape's actual functionality (wouldn't that be insane?), but I think it would be a crowning achievement even if not.

- Alty

[enclinedesigns]

First off, that Corvette is one of the UGLIEST most white trashiest things I have ever scene. The hideousness of that car will haunt my dreams forever.

Second. A 1/60 scale movie blackout robot replica. I guess.

[Shinobitron]

Really want to make my WoW character into plastic one of these days. The armor and design she has right now looks killer nad I want to get her on my computer desk next to my other VG figures.

[Shinobi]

I'm planning to convert something from this:

[Hunk]

1/4 scale Elvira with a perfect 100% scratch built head that looks dead on to Cassandra Peterson as well as "perfect" body to match hers, cloth costume with dagger(hand made as well) and maybe that done from the self titles move she was in....

ok maybe thatis a bit odd but hey why not?

[Shinobitron]

Hers armors changed a little since I did this capture but for the most parts heres my Demi. Actually started gathering pieces for her.

Well personnaly i have 2 projects that i,ve started that are the sumon of what i want to do... a 4.5 feet tall metroplex and a fully self-transformable costume movie style... i,ve been working on the costume lately with some interesting advancements such as thick styrene (0.125 inch thick) bending techniques that does not affect the proporties of the plastic.... also mechanical components that will make this a realistic transformer....

holy crap man, that would be insane

[anemis]

holy crap man, that would be insane

yes it would lol... actually the process would be that a car would transform into the robot... but the reverse would need someone to help... BUT it will move foward in vehicule mode... a very ambitious project... at this point it might be in the shape of sideswipe but with a mazda furai as car mode... or maybe one of the twins... (not to crazy about that one lol)...

[The Hyena]

a series of beast wars masterpiece figures including inferno that has an optional voice chip that spams "FOR THE ROYALTY BURN TRAITORS FOR THE COLONY"

[triune3n1]

I'd like to make a custom/kitbash of the jester/jolin Batman Tumbler Autobot concept. I'm completely new to this custom thing though. I love transformers and the things that I have seen here and TFW2005 have me really chomping at the bit. The Tumbler will come after some practice though.

[Hotwire]

Would like to do a ROTF Nemesis Prime, but can't convince myself to shell out the $35 to get a new Prime. Also, I can't paint flames to save my life.

As sort of a collaboration betwen Zildjian and myself, my ROTF Leader Prime will soon be shiny black and chrome, and ready for some teal highlights upon my return from the isle Oahu.
