 | |  | | | | | | | Sorry for the truck mode tease (bot mode pics will be up tomorrow evening!), but need to finish some details to bot mode before they go up. Alt Hoist in all his glory. Painting this guy up just makes me feel like this mold was definitely intended to be Trailbreaker/Hoist. Thanks to Squall for the inspiration, and the idea for the KC lights! Once I saw his Arm Megs painted up all green, I knew I had to do Hoist! Lift is from Energon Landmine, as well as the robot mode shoulder wings (which snap perfectly into the bed of the truck.) Bot mode will not disappoint guys, you will see him tomorrow...and he is probably my favorite bash that I have done. http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...t/P1010195.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...t/P1010196.jpg http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...t/P1010197.jpg
let me know what you think!

I still have the rubber tires but the rims are gone.
Thanks for the support guys! The bot mode pics will be up (late) tonight.

Though personally, I would have shaved off the Mini-con Ports.
Also, will this hoist have the gun/cannon hand. |
