    Yeah! I'm awesome!

    I love that turboedguy does all the work, and I get the credit! :lol 

    Great work dude! The LEDs are sweet. You made my half-baked random notion into awesome reality.

    Are you kidding me Turboedguy?! Are you?

    If you're not, then you need to redo the 1984 catalog with these pieces of perfection. Then print it up so I can buy it off you...

    Dude! Are you kidding me? With LEDs that is awesome! After seeing all your work I really didn't think G1 figs could get much cooler. Way to step it up :thumb 

    EDIT: Funny that I posted "are you kidding" right after JAF did before readin his post. :lol

    DO NOT do Soundwave. If I know there's one out there and he's not mine, I won't be able to go to sleep. I have WORK tomorrow, dammit.

    Thanks man.:)  Oh yes, I will do the movie figures eventually, but I have a few of the early ones on my list to do first. My OCD keeps telling me that my shelf looks bare without all the Autobots.:wink:  Ive only got a few "virgin" molds left, then its just redoing the mold variants ive already done, like Sideswipe, Prowl, Smokescreen, Inferno, etc...

    But yeah, ill probably skip Wheelie.

    Totally understand the monopoly you have over the system, but of all the amazing mods you've put on the beloved leader, give us the secret of the least likely to give away any others... (I'd say the lights, but the shoulders is a close second - but that's only b/c I want that mod SOo badly...)
