Description A 'repaint' I did using Instructions for Armada Blurr downloaded from Hasbro's official Transformers website, [link]

I am VERY proud to introduce the next installment of the Actionmaster Project, Krok. Like many of the other designs, I tried Krok out on several molds, none of them seeming quite right. He’s obviously some sort of flying vehicle (or hell, he COULD even be a boat or sub) so my options were quite limited with which mold to use. While trying out some of the other characters paint schemes on the Blurr mold, I started looking at him and thinking ”hmmm…this might just WORK for Krok…” and I tried his scheme out on it. I was quite surprised at how well it worked out, and finally, I had a Krok I was happy with. He managed to keep Krok’s scheme, and even has several of his ‘matching’ features. I was VERY happy with this one. Even the vehicle mode fits, since Blurr is a futuristic car (and without the wheels, a believable hover-car) that turns into a jet-like thing. It was perfect. While his colors in vehicle mode are kinds feminine, with all the pink and purple, I still think it looks badass enough to scream ‘decepticon’. I dunno, I know I should probably be unhappy with SOMETHING about this guy, but for some reason, I’m totally psyched about how he looks. I dunno if anyone else feels the same way, but I personally feel like this guy is one of the best AM’s I’ve done so far.

Even the Minicon works out! While the name Gatoraider doesn’t exactly fit AT ALL, the colors are spot on for his AM partner, and if you were going to ‘convert’ a ‘gator to a vehicle mode, this sleek, looooong dragster is pretty damn close. All in all, I’m very happy with this duo.

"I dunno if anyone else feels the same way, but I personally feel like this guy is one of the best AM’s I’ve done so far."

Yes, yes he is. Seconded only to Axer and Treadshot (and Banzai-Tron, but I know you think he's not "perfect" yet), this guy is perfect. Hell, the vehicle mode is purple and pink *shudder* and I really don't mind CUZ HE ROCKS!!!!!!!!! Even Gatoraider color's fit. Truly, as perfect a repaint as I've ever seen. (Even betting out the Tracks, Jazz, Sideswipe and the Predacons you did a while back.)

Whoo-ho! Praise and recognition!

I'm glad we finally agree on at least ONE of these guys. For some reason, you seem to like the repaints/characters i'm not to crazy about, and vice versa. But we see eye to eye on this one!

And I know, lavender and hot pink future hot rod?! And it STILL looks cool? How the hell did that happen? Hasbro can't even make a JUST yellow car look good. And I'm glad ya also see Gatoraider as fitting too. While the name don't, the color and vehicle 'translation' do.

Yeah, Hasbro really should try to make Mini-Cons with animal alt-modes, like everybody thought they would do for the repainted BW characters they put in Armada. Terrorsaur so could have had a little alligator-like Mini-Con.

And imagine, if they (one hopes) do eventually do this, all the repaints and hommages that could be done for the Casseticons and the Battle Beast. (Yeah, I know The BB's don't really fit into TF lore, but they are in the japanese Headmaster toons and in the Dreamwave summer special.)
