Hmmmm... interesting. Notice that he has THREE forms drawn, but only two made it into the books.

Also, the art seems to look better here than it does colored...

Looks like he's covering his bum by saying whatever faults the sourcebook had, it wasn't due to any fault of his...

Real good stuff, but BA looks alittle enfamished.

Funny, I have Big Convoy, and never use his third form, I like that he has the tounge wagging.

And for what it's woth BREAK's gun mode looks no where near that good.

Over all, very nice stuff!

My sentiments exactly. That picture needed to be on a spread page for Convoy. It just doesn't do him justice unless he looks big.

I love how Big Convoy's tusks seem to change shape every time he transforms, haha. God, I just love his design, though. Kudos, Nick, you made Break look really cool.

For me, I guess the big disappointment came for Black Arachnia since she's one of my favorite "villains." To show her TM2 form (eek! no! why'd they do that to her?) rather than her original, normal, Predacon form is blasphamy.

Big Convoy's beast mode makes me think of Spotlight: Shockwave. O, I can't imagine why!
