Get ready to rumble

Just finished a couple more GoBot conversions that I think Hasbro refuses to acknowledge.
The GoBot Boomers, Blast the Renegade(blue), and Rumble the Guardian(gray).




These were two large six-wheeled rolling armored vehicles that actually made it into the cartoon (Rumble anyway) albeit he was never referred to by name, nor was it confirmed whether or not he/it was sentient, as he/it usually just served as a transport for Nick and A.J.
When the second wave of Classics hit, I remember thinking of these two Boomers the instant pictures of Classics Onslaught were leaked.



I mean, just look at them, it's as if there is secretly a GoBot fan working at Hasbro and manages to slip one of these babies in under the radar just to appease lunatics like myself.
So here are two repaints into characters we'll probably never ever see, the GopBot Boomers.  Credit for the base pictures goes to Seibertron.com.
I took the liberty of changing Rumble's name to Rumbler, just beacause I can hear the rabble rabble of TF fanboys who can't accept there being another 'Rumble' being in existence. That and I actually like the sound of Rumbler better, I think it plays better in thinking of what this guy is and what he does.
 


And Blast:



I didn't come up with bios for these two just because I'm not sure if they're supposed to have personalities or not. maybe I'll come up with something at a later date.
