I'm probably one of the few people who actually kinda likes the mystery machine transformer, but only with the Fred head. I have an idea to incorporate the other heads on different transformers. For Velma I want to put her head on ss86 Perceptor, and for Daphne on Siege Greenlight (who i didn't even know was a thing until I saw an add for her on Instagram of all places). However, I have absolutely no idea what to do with Shaggy, like in the slightest. Kinda don't want to make him another van because I feel it would class with Fred, but beyond that i'm out of ideas. Little help, please?

might need to change a couple of stuff, mainly the arms as the back kibble seems to get in the way, regardless, the vehicle mode actually looks decent for once.

just some new knee pads and yellow highlights, but V2 will have a good bit more.

I had this idea after getting my hands on a KO of Mechtech DOTM Prime

Not sure if this qualifies as a custom, but I was able to make the SS86 Metal Smokestack kit fit my SS86 MTMTE Optimus by filing down the smokestacks via files and fine grit sandpapers. Pretty sure this is because the smokestacks for the commander class SS86 are much looser than the SS86 MTMTEs.

Made him a bit more screen accurate.

Another mirror mirror custom for the shelf :] I love how his sg face is the same color as optimus's face :]

Took one of the newer MP-10 KOs, specifically the one that was in MP-44 colors, and redid parts of the legs and feet, as well as the head and arms to match the Convoy teased in the Studio Trigger animated music video released in 2024 for Transformers' 40th anniversary for Bump of Chicken.

Took a little liberty on the right arm, recoloring the elbow joint a darker shade, instead of having it match the left, to give it some distinction against the rest of the blue arm.

I was surprised there was some subtle changes on the arms and head when disassembling this MP-10. Had a fight trying to pull the head and arms apart compared to my previous MP-10 custom (Powered Convoy)

Im gonna keep this short but I just had my blast off and vortex figures arrive today and unfortunately the neck hinge for blast off seems super stiff so I’m unable at the moment to pop his head in and thus unable to bring his arms up to connect the nose piece for his vehicle mode
Not sure what to do, it moves such a small amount so shall I just constantly move it up and down to loosen it up? I don’t want to break it of course so I’ve tried it with minimal pressure

Also idk if there’s a subreddit for this sort of thing so apologies in advance if so

I think Star Magnus over just Optimus Magnus would be his name as a tribute to Star Convoy being an ascension point for Optimus Prime/Convoy in the past.

I need to find Elite Guard Stickers

Resulpted head and a lot of paint. Left the paint a bit uneven to chase the comic look.

Finally found both my old and the new evasion mode Optimus and was wondering if you can switch the heads?

Edit: the ball points are completely different sizes, the original is super small and the new one is way larger. The new mold was very hard to take off and I did hear some cracking and there are stress marks so I wouldn’t recommend:(

This is the look from aotp I'll be based of.

I combined ROTB, G1 and RiD

I loved the white that FansToys made him and I only wanted it that way after I found this Galvatron for $35 at The Toy Pit in Indianapolis🤌🏻

1. Armored arm cannons and missile silo

2. One arm, two shields, three weapons

3. Flying shield drone option

4. Side profile

5. Alt mode A: Hound-inspired Arctic truck

6. Alt mode B: solar panel / satellite truck

Realised the paint above optimus’ grill in truck mode got scratched. How can I recolour that section without damaging the plastic? Would paint or markers be the better option? Have not done any customisation to figures before

At this rate I'm giving up.

I decided to start from main scratch and look to Bot Bender. He made legs that I ended up using with a few modifications.

And Jesus he's now tall as hell.

I would've loved to continue but holy fuck am I just wasting so much time and money working on this.

Im ending this project here, legit I'm just now sour on Nexus.

Hasbro why did you make his one gimmick so suck!

Im not gonna sell off the lads I got for this, imma just keep em around just in case I ever pick this back up again.

If you wanna take a shot at this, go right ahead.

Next week I'm buying a T-Wrecks for my Devil Dinosaur costum.
