I did this right after Toy Fair and sent it in weeks ago, but it has yet to be added to my gallery. I've been dying to show it off, so I uploaded it to Photobucket for now.

Behold the pure awsome that is Alternators Thunder Clash!

You know, I had said that there was nothing that could be done to this toy to make it look good...

I stand corrected. This actually looks pretty good. I was never a big fan of Machine Wars Prime, which is what I think Thunderclash was called here, but this is a nice update to him.

I just want to see someone build the transforming popup trailer King Starscream designed tyo go with his ram version of Prime. That'd be killer.

LOL thats Awsome, the Crappiest alternator ever made to look like the Crappiest Prime incarnation ever. It all makes perfect sence.

P.S. really clean good digibash on that first pic too. Second one looks more fake, but gets the point across just fine.

MW Prime was a repaint of Thunderclash. (TC was from the G2 books/line as an Autobot leader if I recall correctly. I actually have a figure of him that was only missing the gun that I repainted... Renamed him to Firestorm, too. )

In regards to the topic:
Sweet! Would love to see someone bash this... Though I don't like the alt mode having the 3 different colors like that. Maybe if the blue continued on to the lower part of the front of the truck...?
*Shrugs.* I dunno... Just doesn't look all that good in alt mode imo.

get someone to pimp that ride you mean? perhaps have the white trailing into the blue and the blue into the red in a sort of flame kind of way might work on the alt mode

Actually I did the alt mode like that on purpose. It's supposed to look like one of those piece of crap trucks that looks like the guy took parts from several different vehicles but never painted it so it's a bunch of different colors.

OH, well in that case you need one panel to rust colored.

If he hadn't finally painted it last month I'd take a picture of this guys truck out at my apartment complex. Entire thing was made of 3 diffrent shades of blue, the bumper was green and the passanger side door was half covered in stuko and rust. Very attractive

and maybe add some Battle Damage/ fender bender dents in the doors and scuff marks on the bumpers.
