    First let me apologize for the 1 pic pers. ipad...
    I know paint isnt my strong suit but im quite happy with him. He was built purely for leg mode and will probably never be transformed again. But I had to build him so he could be. Hope y'all like him. Anny c&c will be appreciated as I will soon be doing ver. 2.0

    Exactly the parts I used long ago on DOTMHA Tailpipe...something I never finish...

    The proportions work very well on this larger bot and the use of the Arcee wheel to split is quite nice.

    I'd get some 2 part epoxy putty and smooth out that back tire to match the front, give it some beef. You don't want Groove looking like a Junkion ;)

    Looking good! I just updated the head to a "Combiner version" that has a 6mm ball socket. Haven't tested yet - will soon since I plan to do this custom, too!

    Got mine to just a basic paint to be in leg mode. Started on youres tonight. Still waiting on some parts, making a couple tweaks from mistakes made on mine. Will likely start a new wip thread while building him.

    After seeing it painted up you can really appreciate the level of engineering that went into this. Impressive work

    Awesome job my friend. Definitely meant for leg rather than arm. Really I would prefer this to the tak ver.

    Thanks, and yeah I planned on his being a leg so focused mostly on that didnt really worry about an improved arm mode, but wanted to show that he can pull it off.
