What is a Kitbash? A kitbash is simply put an alteration of an existing toy or an entirely custom made toy. Most often this is done with transformers. There are many reasons to kitbash including making an original character or replacing a toy you are dissatisfied with. Fixing problems with an existing toy and just to make them look a little better. Kitbashing can be anything from a simple repaint to a full remolding. For kitbashing I use the following. Exacto knife lots of epoxy. Water based paint set water based gloss sealer micro screwdrivers and whatever else I may have lying around improvization is the key to good kitbashing. When kitbashing I maintain 3 rules 1.the result must retain its abillity to transform 2.I will not alter an old or difficult to aquire toy such as an imported toy or something as old as an original beast wars. 3. I don't alter necessarilly to make toys match their tv show counterparts but rather only to make them the best transformer they can be. now enjoy my contributions the the transformer toy world.
