Description
So further venturing into the world of B List characters I found Bugly. Bug was a pretender whose shell was a . . . . bug!Bugly was made form a Sky Blast with altered transformation and an added chest piece. I used Battle ravage missiles for his tonfas.
he was given a completely new paint job with barious shades of greys and purples. The original looked a little to plain so I added some red and yellow bits to him.

Fantastic job. Its hard to tell what the base figure was. I have the original toy, but would love to own a version like this.

nope I had to take hunks out of his lower legs to make the shoulders lip inside though. I guess you could or couldn't count the wings as parts forming but , they also double as weapons so its more personal discretion than anything.

yeah i realized shortly after i posted that you cut that chunk out.in case you are wondering about the diorama;a poster on tfw2005 made a bludgeon several weeks ago wherein bludgeon's samurai form was a true action figure(ala the pretender shells)with a powerlinking legends class figure for his inner robot.i am doing the same for bugly,longtooth,and iguanus using scout class figures from Cybertron and ROTF along with a Spectacular Spiderman Venom,Toy Story 3 Twitch,and Spiderman Classics Lizard.

Awesome idea! I thought about making shells for these guys but opted just to do the inner bots instead. I may cave in and do one for Bomb Burst just for the sheer fact I used to have him.
