"Rocky Rhino never took kindly to intruders and when Skeletor showed up with an army of flying mechanical minions he was seeing red. Bashing his way through the swarm with his mace-fist or impaling them on his horns, those robots didn't stand a chance! Arriving at the source Rocky stared up at the dimensional rift in amazement. He would try and hold back the invasion force for the sake of Planet Beast....or die trying. Suddenly there was a roar, a thundering, and from behind him more Battle Beasts arrived to lend a hand, a fin, and a paw!"
It's time once again for a helping of Battle Beast, that diminutive toy line of the 80's that I've re-imagined in MotUC scale. This week I created the rough n tumble Rocky Rhino using a Callix body, General Sundar upper armor, modded TMTN Rocksteady head, Aves Apoxie Sculpt body detail, fodder robot bits for arms/lower legs, Neca Gears Of War monster feet/hands and a Black Manta weapon modded into the axe like the vintage character had. His mace-fist can be removed and a normal hand attached as well. Rocky Rhino scales with the 7" MotUC figures and my previous Ferocious Tiger and Triple Threat Snake Battle Beasts customs. |

I saw this on ebay and was blown away, this is honestly one of the best customs Ive ever seen, man I wish this would become an actual figure line, I love/loved the battle beasts from the 80's, and MOTUC is possibly the best toy line ever, to combine the two into an actual toy line would give me a nerdgasm, well done sir, and if you start a kickstarter for this line I'll be all over it.

This is awesome. I haven't even thought about Battle Beasts in forever and a day. I know I had a good few, but I couldn't even begin to tell you which ones. This, however, is one masterful interpretation. If this was part of a retail line, my wife would be kicking my tail for buying it up. Great job!

I really like how you've updated the design elements for the larger scale / modern body while keeping the original's bright, toyetic nature.
