Spotted Online – Amazing Custom Soundwave by FrenzyRumble
Toy customizer Frenzy-Rumble has posted a Flickr set showing off his custom Transformers Soundwave toy. Constructed out of a Reveal the Shield Perceptor (review here) and a War for Cybertron Soundwave (review here) looking at this custom kinda makes me wish that Hasbro would offer an official version of this toy. That Perceptor design works quite well as Soundwave . . . but I’m betting if Hasbro did offer this we wouldn’t get such incredible paint apps.
This custom Soundwave commission started as a Reveal the Shield Perceptor. The mold just screams Soundwave, so I painted him up in classics/Generation 1 Soundwave colors. I added weapons and head from the War For Cybertron Soundwave, swapped in a new front fender slightly modified the shoulders/backpack to give him a little more bulk up top, and went to town with details.
