    First off, just a few things to get out of the way.
    1) Sorry for the shit pics, I just found out that 2 of my 4 lights are dead.
    2) BIG THANKS to AutobotX23 for hooking me up with the sweet decals. (You rule Homie).
    3) I know about pin on the back that was not set, noticed it after I took all the pics. It's set now.

    Now on to the custom.
    Just a simple repaint of Classics BB into Botcon '07 Bugbite.
    I always wanted one of these guys, but knew I would never get a legit one.
    Everything is airbrushed with Tamiya Acrylics.

    I wanted to do this, but wouldn't have been able to do the decals.
    Amazing job! :)

    Very nice Stu. The white paint apps look so clean. I love the purple as well. You sir, have a mighty damn fine exclusive, thanks to your talent. The rest of your collection was jealous when they saw you adding this sucker.
