    this is my second custom post, & the camera im using is still a little
    out of focus so keep that in mind. The average generation 1 basic
    astrotrain mold originally it was not a special cartoon accurate color
    like the "e-hobby special edition astrotrain". I bought it used online
    for about $11.00 & colored it based on pictures i found from the g1
    cartoon & the way it looked on the "transformers tataki" ps2 game.
    The gun astrotrain is holding comes from the knock-off wst scale
    Menasor with the computron autobot limbs. The colors were made by a Grey
    Enamel paint marker & some oil based paint sharpie markers. It was
    missing the metal hinge rod & the left panel with the front train
    wheels kept falling off. So i decided to use thin sturdy copper
    wire twisted together from an old broken watch & its been there since i
    first got the figure. So tell me what you of the tfw2005 radicon's custom
    boards think!

    Beautiful work bro.
    Astrotrain was one of my favorite figs, and this brings a tear to my eye seeing him in toon colours.
