Welcome to the page for my legends class repaints! This includes customs from the legends class lines of the live action films, primarily the Dark of the Moon Cyberverse line. While not as large as my usual Studio Series customs, there's a lot of detail to pick out on these figures!

TABLE OF CONTENTS:

1. Bumblebee (DOTM Cyberverse)
2. Ironhide (DOTM Cyberverse)
3. Sideswipe (DOTM Cyberverse)

1. Bumblebee (DOTM Cyberverse)

DOTM Cyberverse Bumblebee is probably my favorite Legends class figure of all time. The accuracy was a huge step up from prior legends Bees, and he has his plasma cannon molded in! Over time, however, my Bee that I got on the first day that DOTM figures were available was showing signs of wear after more than 10 years, particularly with the Autobot logo on the hood and the windshield. I decided to take the opportunity to fix it! I removed the remnants of the bot logo and the inaccurate black section of the bumper with IPA, and redetailed the figure in both modes! Particularly happy with how the back of alt mode looks with the taillights, exhaust pipes, and chevy logo.

2: Ironhide (DOTM Cyberverse)

Ironhide was a pretty easy one to work on, most of my work was already laid out by my prior paint on the Studio Series voyager. I added a gunmetal base with silver and gold details, as well as painting the cannons silver with a wash on top to bring out the details. In alt mode I had a lot of fun picking out all the little lights!

3: Sideswipe (DOTM Cyberverse)

For Sideswipe the first step was to, of course, give him a shiny silver base coat! After that I was able to add detailing like the windows, spoiler, taillights and stripe for alt mode and gunmetal in robot mode!
