Alternate CW Defensor Transformation

Hey Guys, I was wondering if anyone had examples of transformations that makes Defensor look better. The only one I've found is the image attached, but he looks so skinny and awkward. I thought that CW Bruticus was off the same mold as Defensor, but with two alternate transformations, he looks epic. Is there something that's dramatically different between Defensor and Bruticus? I skipped Defensor because he looked mediocre, but when I saw the bruticus transformations, I'm wondering if Defensor can look that good. If he can, I might have to pick up the Takara one.

Re: Alternate CW Defensor Transformation

Even with a crotch piece, he still looks weird. It it because he's posed funny?

Re: Alternate CW Defensor Transformation

This started out as a bit of a lark, giving Defensor a Groovey tire crotch, but I don't think it looks half bad.

I mean, they do say safe-combining prevents the spread of CTDs (Combining Transmitted Diseases)

So rubber on the old combining port is a must.

Re: Alternate CW Defensor Transformation

That actually looks good because you fill in the gaps on his sides and hide the extensions. Can you zoom into his crotch or let me know how he's hanging on? Is groove on tight or does he fall off when posing?

He holds on pretty tight just from positioning his legs and body like it shows in the picture. His arms around back grip loosely onto the bottom of the ladder. But that's just a place to put the arms, not for stability.

As for posing, what you see is what you get. If you move the thighs forward, it's just going to pop Groove out. You can probably reposition things to free up the legs, but I haven't really tried. This is how I display Defensor.
