Classics Dirge    

Envisioned as part of the Transformers "Classics" line, Dirge was created using a modified Ramjet for entry in TransformersCon 2007. This version differs from the then-forthcoming Botcon 2007 exclusive Dirge due to its modified wing formation, and a neo-classics paint application that more closely resembles those of the Hasbro releases Ramjet, Starscream and Skywarp.

Because time got away from me, I was not able to put together a new piece for the figure competition at Botcon 2007, so I opted to take the already finished Dirge and transform him into how he might look hanging from a familiar peg at Toys 'R Us. So it is kind of ironic that the year that Botcon offers an exclusive non-buggy Dirge, I would show up with a customized version of the same character.
