    He looks like he would possibly able to fit on Fort Max if he were slightly reworked. That looks great.

    ]if you use metallic silver paint and/or chromed parts, plus maybe a small trailer box to go over the rear of the lorry, you could go completely Japanese and make an "Art Truck". heck, pop some LEDs and a battery in the rear trailer box and it would look even better:

    they've even got "Dekotara" (short for "DEKOratedo TARAku", aka, "Decorated Truck" in Japanese pronunciation) model kits where you could add extra bits and bobs, plus the rear section (to just clip on in lorry mode).

    - RC Radical-Mini Dekotora Kabukimono 27MHz

    - Dekotora | HobbyLink Japan

    they usually come with decals too (just don't buy or paint it black, as that's what the nationalist/nazi group in Japan ("Uyoku") uses as their motif.

    you could even use transformers based Japanese images on the faux trailer.

    ... Just to clear this up, are you saying that Japanese nazis have such a presence in the model truck community in Japan that they have their own color scheme?

    No, I'm saying that the Japanese nationalists/Nazis often use a colour-scheme and design that is striking and well known, so it would not be a good idea to paint it up in THOSE colours:

    - Uyoku dantai - Wikipedia

    Basically, the black art trucks might be, or seen to be, similar to Uyoku buses, lorries, etc. It's a bit like avoiding painting the Southern Cross/"General Lee" flag from the deep south on a Transformer, regardless of innocent connotation.
