Hello Tanker family! This is hunter 6. I see Budo as a infiltration operative and he wears a cyber armor for close quarter combat with Cybertronians.
Thanks for watching. |

Cool idea!
Any story behind the Mercedes (?) symbol on his chest? Does he transform like a headmaster? ;)

It is just a cyber armor he wears for combat and when not in use it just switches to storage mode. Truth is I like the
Mercedes symbols and didn't want to sculpt over it so my best attempt is to explain it is that parts of the armor was built by a combination of surviving Mercedes engineers and cybertronian tech. |

Cool figure! As a matter of fact, I think the whole series is cool, and that group shot is epic!

I have several people ask me about the MErcedes symbol and I should have just sculpted over it honestly. It is just so well made and looked good with the washes I couldn't do it man. haha

This seems to have been a favorite for friends who have seen it. I like the character as well. can't get crazier than a modern day special ops samurai in ancient armor like the original I tried to give him that same feel but I just couldn't make the horned helmet work so I opted by giving him a cyber armor instead. Thanks man, it just keeps getting crowded One more hunter to go |
