    i never get tired of this custom, i love the way you make the colors pop on this guy. i cant imagine what a trial it must be to sand the criss-cross pattern off the entire truck.

    Nice one Earl, and while I like the one you made for me a lil' more, I really do like the hands and dual blasters that attach to the backback. Where are those bad boys from?

    Thanks ma. PM'd ya.

    He's like the Dirty Harry/Punisher of the Autobots, man. For my last one I wanted to go all out.

    :lol  Can't wait to see your new ones!

    Gracias, hombre.

    You know, I have no clue where it came from. I got a great hook up from a TFW bro and several casts of the original and this head were both in there. I want to speculate that it may be a cast of the Mugen Calibur bot that mirrors RB, but I'm not certain at all.

    Thanks much, man!

    Yeah, I feel you. I would like to do one with bullet holes and such. It's one aspect of my bashing palette that is sorely lacking. And on the Wreckers, it would only make sense, right? :lol  Thanks, man.

    P.S: And hire AutobotX23 to paint the prototype.

    Sincerely,

    Us

    With the Alt hands you really have a few options when it somes with weapons. They are sturdy enough to hold almost anything you can fit a handle onto. Thanks, man.

    It's not that hard, really. Just kinda frustrating when you miss a spot here or there, cause it sticks out like a sore thumb (like on the front/under-hood area of this guy!) Best method for me so far is after you soak it in rubbing alcohol, grab an emery boards and dip it in water. The chain mail comes right off, bro.

    Again, no clue! A few moths ago i attended a local Phoenix Toy Show they have every other weekend or so. I picked up bag of random weapons and accessories from a guy selling GI Joes stuff. Those were in there. That's about it!

    Yours has that MASSIVE chain gun though, so it is still near and dear to me as well.

    It'll be sad to see you go, bro. A dark day for Radicons, that will be.

    Still, if the's anyone who knows how to go out with a bang, it's gotta be Roadbuster! That is one seriously awesome arsenal he's got there. I don't even wanna know where they came from, honestly I'd just turn around and run as fast as I could if I saw that thing coming at me. Scarily amazing, as is the norm for your Roadbusters.

    I can't wait to see what else is in the final pipeline. Darn it if I didn't feel like I should've commissioned before. This guy looks great!
