    Only one problem with this statement...it wouldn't be on a Wal-Mart peg, simply because it would sell out very quickly! Excellent work! Overall I think it's the best Wheeljack custom I've seen thus far! HASBRO ARE YOU SEEING THIS?

    Just came back for seconds and I have to say I'm jealous...even better on second look. I really want this figure. It doesn't even LOOK like the SS mold, other customs you could always tell.

    Glad to see everyone else agrees!

    Thanks bros!

    The cannon is from my favorite donor bot - Threadbolt.

    custom cut some styrene sheets, then fix it the front (black grille)

    Thank you very much guys! I really appreciate it.

    nice and clean, though the shoulder blaster's a bit huge i like what you did with the windshield. it looks cool in bot mode and as the front of the car though with the rear shots it doesn't sort of merge with the car's rear. :)  good bulk on the knees and a rebuilt rear window would be good for the car mode but the bot mode is aces. i want to see the back of the botmode as well and i'd like to look at how you hid the wings. :D

    I just saw this on Sector70 & it blew my mind! :eek: 

    Dare I say it, but IMO, This would have to be the best Classics Wheeljack made from the Sunstreaker/Sideswipe mold yet! :bowdown:

    Waow. Incredible sculpt.
    The ONLY thing I MIGHT add would be a little drybrushing so that
    that white isn't so bright... dirty him up a little bit like his metal color
    parts are... right now it looks a little plastic-y.

    THANK YOU for taking more of the Lancia alt-mode into consideration with this custom, rather than just making him a white Lambo.

    How do you keep on making all these incredible classics series customs! I have really loved all your customs I have seen but this one is by far the most spectacular now. I wouldn't have guessed that if you round the windshield (which I didn't even think was possible) to make it look more like the one G1 WJ had and add new front skirting, how much Sunstreaker/Sideswipe's alt mode could look like that old race car. Wow. Amazing work man. This is definitely the best WJ I have seen.

    Thanks! I sculpted the head of Sideswipe using styrene and apoxy sculpt. I cut the ears of SS, and added ears of Wheeljack
