Description
A 'repaint' I did using Instructions for TF: CYBERTRON Override I scanned myself from the copy of the instructions that came with the toy.

The second version of a Cybertron Sandstorm repaint, this time using the Override mold to try and mimic his dune buggy mode. Originally, it was unknown if the Armada remolds were going to come to Hasbro’s Cybertron line, so it looked like I was going to have to come up with another choice to make a Sandstorm homage. (Seeing as how I have thin incessant need to try and make as many of the wreckers out of every line as I possibly can.) I thought Override could make a suitable dune buggy, and it had enough design elements in common with G1 Sandstorm, and the color distribution worked well enough so I gave it a shot. In the end, I’m pretty happy with how it came out. Again, the override mold can make for some pretty nice repaints, something the current Override paint scheme and the ghastly Override GTS scheme don’t really seem to take advantage of. This came out much better then I expected. I was thinking that the Buzzsaw mold would be the obvious Sandstorm choice, and once I finally managed to get the figure (and lineart) and do THAt repaint, this would have been a decent “runner up”, but now that I have them both done, I think I like them equally as much. If only they could figure out a way to combine the two molds into a triple changer…
