Pic of the Day

Autobot X (7) by frenzy_rumble

“Autobot X” (or Autobot Spike) was custom built with the parts of about 100 “junker” transformers and other robotic toys. He has over 50 points of articulation/moving parts.

Some cool features
– Eyes light up
– Left Forearm opens for gun attachment
– Left upper arm opens to reveal gears
– Right arm has laser light built in
– Small button on back triggers “Transforming noise”
– 2nd small button on back triggers other sound effects
– Batteries are all easily replaceable
– Head was scratch built (using a Sigma 6 GI Joe for the face)
– Hydraulic on back of right leg really works
– Several parts are die cast and were cut to size and shape
– Over 11″ tall

  1. Unfortunately, I doubt we'll ever get fully articulated G1 cartoon representations. I think Universe is about as good as we'll get (I say this now)… I think thats what I like so much about the Animated figures, they're for the most part 99.999% show accurate.

  2. I would probably give any amount of money to whoever made this to make me a full, in scale, set of cartoon accurate (who cares about transforming) figures loaded down with articulation. Then again, who wouldn't.

  3. …but does he transform?

    Deffinently cool, but I cannot help but feel sorry for the Transformers you got the parts from LOL.

  5. This truly is a great custom! I'd be interested to see a manifest of what scrapped parts were used. I want to say the right hand/forearm looks like it was from RID Magnus. I'd love to see pics of it to see the scale with other bots.

    The body is great, but the head and face really solidify it. I love the glowing eyes. It was a great idea to take a SS face and use it for a TF custom!

    That is a beautiful, well made manifestation of one of the worst episodes of the show that wasn't from season 3. The only part I can make out for sure is the upper right arm, which he seems to have gotten from Armada Overload.
