    So, when the tokyo toy show exclusive was announced, i was really expecting a blue version. when it ended up being a straight silver i was a little disappointed however still bought it.

    it lead me to picking up a normal version of streak and some Dr Wu launchers and attacking it with the airbrush and some House of Kolor paints.

    i wanted to make it a custom that can be picked up and transformed and enjoyed just like the other MP toys, not just a statue.

    anyhow here it is! i think the colours really suit this and hope in the future tamara sees fit to get one done!

    thanks for checking this out :)

    Very nice work. Looks official. Take some pics of it with the other datsun bros(throw in an MP-10 for authenticity ha), post on the upcoming MP release thread and watch the fun you cause :D

    I like all of the blue bluestreak customs, even this one, but it's kind of a shame we never get an official version.

    Maybe we should make up a new character for the blue bluestreak.

    If the new character is popular enough, and has enough demand, then maybe hasbro or takara would finally make a masterpiece of the blue bluestreak using the new character.

    I honestly agree that I wish we had an official one and as explained in my original post, it's because we didn't get one that I made this. I'd still buy an official one!

    Jarrods custom spurred me on as that was lovely too!

    Wow... Looks... beautiful. Nice work! Did you deliberately leave the rear windows blue and the bonnet vents silver, or are you planning to paint those too? Amazing work, either way!

    I left them body colour on purpose, I'm keeping this one so went with a toy look.

    Sometimes less is more. But it's just my tastes here - strange aren't i? :D
