    Wow! If you get rid of the stuff on the trailer sides, and replace it, that'll be awesome!

    yeah I am still working on the finish. the weird thing is the hardcore trucker thing is growing on me. but I do believe I have found some near G1 style stripes and insignia for it.

    Its a 1:32 peterbuilt from Magic Mart, PM me if you are interested in me picking you up one, and I used the original connections with a small square of styrene added to fit over classic prime's square trailer peg.

    hey.. I've seen that over at Transtopia. welcome aboard! :)  I cant' wait to see it finished. I will eventually do it once I get a cleaner plate. you should do otheres a favor and take a good picture of the connector you rigged up.

    I was wondering personally, where'd you get the part you're using for the turet?

    Some reprolabels perhaps *wink*

    I remember some punk on here saying that a customs trailer for Classics Prime would be cool and even cooler with some reprolabels. Who could that be . . . ? *looks around*

    Uh, you?

    ;-)

    I love what you've got going and how it looks.

    What was your source for the trailer? Is it all scratchbuilt, or did you have a donor trailer to work with?

    yeah I am still waiting to hear back from reprolabels on a sticker option for this guy. as far as where he came from he is a 1:32 scale peterbuilt semi trailer. he was solid and I have since began to cut him up. I just used an exacto knife to cut through him. the cammand center base is a scrap G1 prime base with the weapons top removed and the bottom cut way down. the top is a combination of Zoids Blox (the core and canopy) and old Gi-joe bazookas. I will try to get a how to up on the conecter between the trailer and bigbot. Its deceptively simple. thansk for the welcomes to the board guys.

    This looks incredible. Nice job. Makes me want to mod one, but this is beyond me.

    Duuuuuuude!

    Too awesome. Prime needs a trailer, and that one fits perfectly.

    PS. Keep the "Hardcore Trucker". :)  :thumb
