As a continuation to our previous posts showing the original line art for the packaging of Transformers Combiner Wars figures, we now have images of the entire Stunticon team from Ken Christiansen, a friend to the site. Below you will see Motormaster, Breakdown, Offroad, Dead End and Dragstrip.
This is the official pencil art that was used for the packaging, meaning that there are several more layers to the image applied by the studio that creates the final artwork, which Ken also added after each of the pencil drawings. It is really cool to see that Ken used only elements found within the toys and while the packaging artwork cropped a lot of the images, we can now see his full pencils.

Nice Artwork. Oh and I enjoy the extra bots as I've stated many times. Alpha Bravo, Rook, & Smokescreen (or the Hasbro exclusives as I refer to them since they were not released by TT), make up my Optimus Maximus along with Power Core Optimus and SG Starscream.

Nice pairing up white SG Screamer with PC Optimus. Nice idea O.Supreme.
I'd love to see a thread devoted to everyone's fan gestalt. Curious to see how people have paired them up... and how the colors and characters match together. Could have some ground rules that a name and short bio have to be provided with photos (?)

Thank you. 
I wish I could say I was being creative, but it was just fortunate that 4 of the 5 leftover components had a dominant white color. If I wanted I could swap out Smokescreen for UW Ratchet on him, then the White would be perfectly united, but I like keeping my UW teams as released.
My Decepticon combiner unfortunately is not so palatable to the eyes but... Grand Scourge has CW Blastoff and Vortex as his arms, and for the legs -Off Road & BC 2016 Terrorsaur.

Sounds like we're in the same boat. Been wondering where to put ole Terrasaur myself.
Maybe with the upcoming odd-man-out bots like Jazz, Darkwing, Dreadwind, Wreck Gar and (mystery color) Blast Off... maybe we will have some more options for our fan combiners. Of course with Inferno, we have another puzzle altogether. (ha)
Still planning my own customs to finish out Magnaboss. The sticker set was a nice idea, but didn't quite scratch the proverbial itch.
That all reminds me, still waiting on that G2 Protectobot set, Hasbro!

The Genesis book is amazing. I'm so glad I have it . If a *said* book would include all the art used on the UW Box Sets (clean art on glassy pages), I'd love it. I always thought those would make amazing posters.

Have you been checking out Ken Christiansen's Facebook page for his art? You should be if you haven't because there's some truly nice pencil sketches as well finished pieces involving packaging art of some of the latest Transformers from Combiner Wars to Titans Return. Christiansen is adding more of his work for the Generations series of toys at a steady pace.
Be sure to check out more of it by clicking the pencil drawing of Combiner Wars Streetwise above. There's also a lot of other Transformers art on hand there too that are not packaging art that are genuinely awesome as well.

That was the first thing I noticed. Just double checked and they didn't correct it when the line art was colored, the comic cover has both as well. Oops.

Edit: The weirdest part, they were with wave 1 PotP prime masters, deluxes and voyagers.

If you've been hemming and hawing at picking up your Fan-Built Combiner, now's your chance! ThinkGeek.com has Victorion available for the very low price of $49.99! That's a 50% discount over her original MSRP of $99.99. Having got her when she originally came out, I can say that especially at this price, she's an absolute steal. The new headsculpts and retooling really make these figures their own characters. Victorion and her components have been prominently featured since her/their introduction in fiction in 2016, predominantly in the ongoing Optimus Prime series.
If you want to pick this combiner up, please click here to be taken to her order page and enjoy!

GIRL POWER!
When we saw the name of this Transformers set, we were hoping for mandatory bustles and robots that turned into penny farthing bicycles. Oh wait. VictoriOn. We'll go out and come in again.
It's the fan-built gestalt Transformer Victorion! You guys picked all her particulars (including making her and all her Autobots female). Now you can proudly display your creation on your collectibles shelf. These Rust Renegades, Pyra Magna, Dustup, Jumpstream, Skyburst, Stormclash, and Rust Dust, each come with their own unique weapon which then combines into a giant super blade of ultimate awesome.

Much thanks for the heads up. At that price, I'm interested. I really liked the idea of a strong, be female team of TFs, but the colour scheme/mapping want always off, IMO. With some Repros and that price though, I'm all up for it.

As has become a regular occurrence, artist Ken Christiansen has been uploading more lineart he provided for Hasbro to use on Transformers packaging - with colours done by Volta, the company headed by Sara Pitre Durocher - and we get to see a few more characters from Combiner Wars, including newcomer Rook and the Combaticons Onslaught, Brawl, and Blast Off!
Additionally, fellow artist Marcelo Matere has also uploaded his take on packaging art for the combined form of the Protectobots: Defensor, and the Combiner Wars bizarre creation (in both the toyline and the comics event) Galvatronus. Check it all out below!

If Blast Off had used the Firefly head, he'd have been the first of only two straight redecos in general retail (next to Smokescreen, with Quickslinger as an exclusive instead); the rest all had switched out parts, I guess that played a slight part. Good to know that head was at least considered...

And let’s be honest, Alpha Bravo was a Vortex redeco.

Does this help? The one on the right is wearing the Perfect Effect add-on kit, which replaced the head and chest pieces, but should otherwise be a good comparison. First image shows PE Kit without faceplate, second with. The original head is on the ground in front of him.
Now, if you want me to tell you which is which...I'm not sure....

I should have been more clear. I saw all those images, but strangely enough, NONE of them show all three in Torso mode... I want to see the differences in torso mode.
Does this help? The one on the right is wearing the Perfect Effect add-on kit, which replaced the head and chest pieces, but should otherwise be a good comparison. First image shows PE Kit without faceplate, second with. The original head is on the ground in front of him.
Now, if you want me to tell you which is which...I'm not sure....

I wiah they hadn't included the PE kit, but thanks!
Left is the Takara UW one, middle is the seperately sold C.W. Scattershot, right must be the Hasbro Computron boxed set Scattershot.
This does make me happy I got the UW set. I saw the middle one for sale for €10,- locally, and wondered if he was different enough to grab. He seems to have the Superion head, and is sometimes used to form Betatron. Meh. Not sure. He may be nice to combine with random deluxes, such as Jazz. We'll see what PotP further brings us.

That was me...
I had posted that a long time ago in the 3P thread to show off the kit. It was the only pic I had from back then. (Dern Photobucket...

Thanks guys! That helps. imo the seperate C.W. Scattershot is the least interesting one. He resembles Superion too much. At least the boxed set one has nice stickers on the shield and a coloured head, even though it's still the Superion sculpt.

Yeah, until Fun Pub came up with Modulus, I had no interest in the Hasbro retail CW Scattershot because of how "wrong" he looked compared to the other two versions.
But since Modulus would be considered an all new combiner with his own look, the retail one now has that appeal to me.
Though, since I don't own a Medix, whenever I get around to making my own Modulus, I'm gonna replace the absent Medix with a second stickered version of TFSS Bluestreak (my first, non-stickered one will stay with Wreckage).

Okay, holy shelfwarmers, or more likely holy warehouse warmers. Anyone who missed out on any CW limbs might want to check out your local TRU. Today I saw 1 each of CW Offroad, Sunstreaker, Prowl and Ironhide.
I hunt that store often and can definitely say these have not been on the shelf for the past 8 months and only appeared recently. No idea if these were from lost cases in the distribution warehouse or in this particular TRU store, but all 4 packages were in great condition, meaning they definitely have not been hanging on pegs for all this time.
And the double shocker was that they were only priced for $6.97. TRU is notoriously late to clearance TF's in my experience, and were selling CW lmibs for about $22-$24 during TR. I'm considering picking them up for future ebay selling, but I already have too much TF stuff in my basement.

It's probably a one off, but there are probably a few stores out there. I know of a specialty toy-store in my local mall that still have a Voyager Onslaught. Its been there for a long time...and priced at $30, I doubt it will be going anywhere, anytime soon.
I saw a Leader Armada Megatorn in the fall when I visited a wal mart in Utah last september
