This character is one of the most important ones in my Lego history.

The character Turbo and I go way back, like before Bionicle came around. The character started off in the Lego Throwbot series. But since Bionicle never click with me, I remade the Throwbots, made them into transformers, ditch the throw arms and gears, and design new body styles. I had Turbo as the leader of his own unit and had him transform into a tank. So since in my stories, the Throwbots became the Cyberbots, I thought Turbo would had been perfect to bridge the two eras of my Lego history.

With weapon:

No, that's not meant to represent water, its meant to represent laser fire.

Notes:

The 3.0 animal logos are removed from all parts.

I do have a back cover, it's the black shell part Stringer has for the claws.

The arm guns are supported by two cut rods.

This newer version of Turbo was made back in late July, so alot of the newer armor ideas had not been thought of at the time.

Character story notes:

Became the first Throwbot in 2241.

Was commander of the Legotron Army by 2295.

Was deploy to liberate Cybertron from Megatron and his Vehicon forces in 2300 to 2301.

Was elected leader of his home planet in 2310.

Took part in Operation Tronic following terrorist attack on his home planet in 2311 and ended the war in 2319.

Retire from the Legotron Army in 2350.

Became a Cyberbot in 2365 and has been fighting in the Galactic War as of 2367.

Return to Cybertron in 2367 to take part in the Beast Wars 70th anniversary and reunited with old friends during the liberation efforts.

Do you consider anyone in your story as transformers? As for me, it is really weird crossover.

And about Throwbots/Slizers, it's really hard for me to accept, because not very long ago I've tried to re-make Slizer universe by my own concepts. =)

However, the model is stylish, and I really like this combination of black, trans-dark green and gunmetal. ^_^

Hmmm... from both my meager understanding of Transformers and my somewhat better understanding of Throwbots/Slizers, I really feel this guy needs wheels on him somewhere. Honestly, I wouldn't have known he had anything to do with the original Turbo, or that he was meant to be a transformer, if you hadn't stated it.

I had used the Quintesson idea from the G1 series, I just expanded on it. If they had used robotic slaves for Cybertron, why would they stop there? So I used the idea as the kick off for my story universe, but instead of millions of years ago, I have them repeating it on another planet in the 1640's. Like with Cybertron, I had a robotic revolt and not long after, they were in two factions and at war with each other.

So that allowed me to tie in all my Lego figures from different eras. From the Legobots and Thundercons, which were from the bricks. To the Throwbots and Jetcons, which were smaller transforming figures. Now adding the HF characters into it, calling them Cyberbots and Terrorcons and ditching the transformation. Which in my stories, each were upgrades over time. Kind of like in Transformers when the Autobots became the Maximals, only I have my own event like that three times.

Lyichir, I had only used the name. My version of Turbo over the years is alot different than the one Lego had done. I had several versions of the character over the years, this just happens to be the first one from the post transformation era.

Nightcruise, sounds interesting an somewhat right.

However, the one thing isn't right yet: I want to see their alt-forms. =)

Sadly my old Turbo Throwbot transformer is gone now, thanks bewteen bad Bionicle replacement parts and older parts breaking after years. So if you want, I'll find some old images of the character back from 2008. But the pictures probably would not be very good, given the time.

But I do have one of my other characters, Soundbarrier still around. Though I did have to update him with HF era part replacements.

I've had the character starting back in 2002, was black and lime green back then.

Hey, not bad! Altform looks very elegant! =)

One might ask, where did you get a black helmet and a trans-green armor pieces

The trans green armor pieces came from the HF 3.0 sets, I just removed the logos from them. As for the helmet, I just recolored one of the normal versions from the 2.0 line.

Let's say, but I could not tear off the logo. Can you explain how you did it

A bit of brasso and a paper to rub them for a while should get the logos removed.
