The Repaint Concept Thread

[LordGigaIce]

Sure wouldn't mind an inner robot Magnus and a Pepsi Convoy out of the Earthrise mold. The main redeco I want out of the Commander class Armada OP is the Costco 2-pack hazmat one. I'm glad we're getting a Nemesis deco from the Animated one, but I'd love to see an Elite Guard colors one at some point too.

*I know Yellow Splendid was from RiD '01 Optimus, but I doubt they're ever going to repaint the HasLab mould. Still, I like Yellow Splendid's "vibe" and colour scheme, and Cybertron Optimus is a fire truck too so.... why not?

I only made Buzzsaw, Soundblaster can be reissued easily.

I think I would buy that mold in just about any flavor of the rainbow...

Hashtag into Gobots Smallfoot (I know we just got a Smallfoot, but this one would be in her Gobot colors, not her "disguised as a Cybertronian" colors.

I really, really like that! It's visually distinct from Hashtag, and also makes a fine update for Smallfoot!
(Someone want to try Nightshade decoed as Hoot from Convertors?)

Yeah, I was pretty happy with how it turned out! I think the mold really fits Smallfoot's personality/voice, and I think the sprue layout would work more or less like I laid it out (I'm already seeing a few things that are probably the wrong color).

And here people are like "but you can't USE the old designs!"

Yeah, duh. But stuff like this works well enough for me!

Once again I am saddened that no one has uploaded Slartibartfast's kind of a threat to make his compatriot 'the late Dent Artur Dent' from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy to YouTube.

I was genuinely about to do that, but couldn't figure out how to segue into it.

 

[Sabrblade]

Wait, what does that have to do with this repaint concept thread?

WFC-S Soundblaster and Buzzsaw

This is probably already known, but how easy or difficult or not possible would it be to swap parts (keeping painting to a minimum) and make a tape deck Soundblaster? Like, would it work to take the torso from Soundblaster and all the tape deck-y bits from Soundwave? Or idk, maybe less trouble (paint no longer at a minimum) to just swap tape deck doors?

Tsk. Just make one, Hasbro...

He looks like a Tokusatsu costumed character.

Well, Trailbreaker/Hoist are basically their own Super Sentai team if you take into account the Diaclone colors. You could even count the anime and toy accurate Trailbreaker colors seperately if you want to add a 7th.
