Wrecker- Guzzle

Well after reading "Last Stand of the Wreckers" I've been trying to build up my Wreckers like most of you and have a few gaps.
I was tired of waiting for a certain 3P to start making their series that was shown over 2 yrs ago, with a figure and a few head shots. So I decided to start making some.
The problem with that is that I still have 4 unfinished projects on the go, oh well.

When I saw this new mold (Commander BH Bulhead) on one of my trips to the local TF supplier it reminded of Guzzle. So yet again I have stopped my current projects and started a new one.


With the stock figure in-hand I started hacking off bits of plastic.




Cut the popeye forearms off and replaced them with Gen 2.0 prowls


Removed the wheels, horns and anything else I didn't like.



Fits nice underneath


Added some bits to the hood/Chest



Used Guzzles head from Kreo, added some plastic, shaved it down, added a breather mask later.



Some final shots of Guzzle before priming

Re: Wrecker- Guzzle

Ok got my final shots of the complete figure sorted out.

Turned out OK, got half way thru some lining/weathering and I thought I should have left him untouched and new. But it's done now.




Alt mode, didn't spend to much time on this as I was not to worried about it. He will be displayed in robot mode, it does close up a bit more at the front.






OK the bot shots.








His sholder pads fold over






Some Group shots for size comparison.
