Jeep: PTE
Cannon: PoC Cobra Viper with added fodder for the barrel

Like many 80's kids, I grew up on a steady regiment of GI Joe and Transformers. To this day, I collect Transformers, as do so many fans. Including Transformers crossovers in this project was a no-brainer. To do so, I looked at one of my favorite sub-teams - The Combaticons. A few years ago, I built a Brawl-inspired MoBAT

To build on this, I turned to my second favorite member of the Combaticons - Swindle. The build was easy as the PTE jeep is already very similar to Swindle's G1 cartoon vehicle mode (His toy was actually a completely different vehicle). The hardest part was finding the proper yellow color. It took me a few weeks of searching hobby shops and craft stores. I finally found Krylon Fusion gold that is almost a perfect match.
