Gator-Done

One of my favorite Fuzors (I know I know, all the Fuzors are my 'favorite') was Terragator, I thought he had one of the most interesting, not to mention terrifying combinations of animals. I mean seriously, can you imagine the damage a gator protected by a giant armored shell could do if they occurred naturally in the wild? Of course I always had an issue with the fact that he was so tiny, so to make myself feel better I've digibashed a vehicle version of him onto deluxe Cybertron Defense Hotshot. It's a surprisingly accurate mold for him, the only thing I think would make it perfect is a row of spikes along the middle in vehicle mode.

Generations Silverbolt

I was a little torn turning Silverbolt into a vehicle because I love his Fuzor form so much-but when push comes to shove I think the Thunderwing mold works best for him. I'm sad the mold isn't a little bigger (I've always thought he should have been a Voyager), but as far as looks I think he works quite nicely.

More Botcon Bashes

I've been on a kick with turning old Botcon guys into vehicles, my next victim-Onyx Primal. I used the Cyclonus mold, partially because it's just a swell mold, but also to stick it to the people who swore it could never be used as a base for anyone else because of the "ears".
Anywho, because he's a Primal/Prime, I gave him a Prime head, it amuses me.

Bar-Bearic


For absolutely no reason other than having a small stockpile of extra Classics Kups sitting around, I started looking for some characters that would fit these wonderful molds.
First up is Barbearian/Grizzly-1. I was torn on this guy because I think he’d work upgraded to both the Generaions Kup or Universe Dropshot mold. I like how massive Dropshot is-it suits a big burly bear and Barbearian is already packing a small arsenal even in his Beast mold, so it would make sense. But on the other hand, the generations Kup mold really gives that “bear” impression both in truck and robot mode. Tough call. In the end I decided to just digibash them both!

Generations Skids and Screech

Jeezum, I've been gone long enough to have a baby!
In that time a ridiculous number of Generations figures have popped up and been begging for new paintjobs! I saw the new mold for Skids pop up and remembered how much I wanted a Generations version of the Million Publishers Skids/Screech two pack that came out a couple of years ago. At the time the best match was Classics Ironhide, but with a new Skids rearing its head, the time has never been better to revisit and update that old digibash with some newness.

The coolest news is that Generations Crosscut has been announced, complete with a new head to match the original. It makes want repaints of these figures into an exclusive two pack all the more.

Shadow in the Sky

Though I've admitted that Torca is my overall favorite Fuzor from Beast Wars, SkyShadow comes in at a razor thin second. I've always loved the design, the combination of beasts, and the dark scheming traitor his bio describes him as. It really makes him a great overall character, and I kind of wish there had been some fiction that focused on him. Clearly someone at Hasbro was a fan as well seeing as how his color scheme pops up on Powerglide in the Wal-Mart "Ultimate Gift Set"! He's the second Fuzor to see a bot/vehicle mode after Quickstrike, and I certainly hope the trend continues!



Anywho, I really liked the way he turned out in that set, and noticed that SkyShadow's colors worked just as well on the Ultra sized Powerglide from Generations. Works for me, because I wanted him to be an aerial rival for Torca and close to his size and bulk.

Nocturnal bashin'

Even though Noctorro was never my favorite Fuzor, I always had a soft spot for the guy. When I started digibashing Fuzors into generations robot bodies, I couldn't think of anyone better suited than the Tracks mold. The overall build, the wings, too perfect!
