Because it's the sort of thing I DO.

For now, it's just a generic robot, I simply wanted to get the transformation scheme worked out. Not gonna do a final version until I either get a Mazda 3 wagon (and know what color it is) or decide not to get one (and can make it any color I feel like). In the "where does all that robot stuff go?" department, the abdomen hides behind the robot head (taking up the passenger side in car mode), and the boots slide over the thighs and pelvis. The feet are under the thighs in car mode, and might even have exhaust pipe molding. The left arm folds up to take the place of the seatbacks, and the roof shield is a reassembler piece, pegging onto the arm different ways for robot and vehicle modes. In robot mode, the passenger side (back half of the torso) is hollow, the joint for the left arm attaches to the solid driver's side of the torso.

I'd want to attach the roof assembly as a shoulderpad, to help balance out the HUGE shoulderpad he's got on the other side.

Looks good though; Wildride is a favorite of mine :D

I deliberately went for the asymmetry, actually. Shades of TM Spittor.

I assume he's talking about CR's Wildride (RID X-Brawn) since he's assymetrical also.

Is there another Wildride? TFU.info doesn't turn up anything. X-Brawn's asymmetry is more in his hands, not so much in shoulders.

Huh...I guess there isn't...Maybe thinking of Wildrider...
The legs, chest and head are very Wild Ride though.

The head is just a placeholder for now, to give me limits on how big it can be and still fit. The chest is the driver's side door (I'm leaving the doors attached to the torso rather than kibbling them off onto the legs).
