    I've considered doing this to an extra Windcharger I have, but could never figure out how to make the red parts white w/out painting, which I'm afraid to do because of the rubbing effect, etc.

    Did you paint him or dye or what? Any tips?

    Also: Freakin awesome looking job you did. :D

    That's amazingly well done! I love the metallic blue you chose.

    Best of luck with your sale. It's a little high priced for me considering the size class, but perhaps others have more resources.

    That is absolutely awesome! Love seeing Tailgate made from that mold. Is the head the G1 Tailgate face attached to the Windcharger head?

    Great job, paintwork (love the metallic blue and white) looks really sharp and that head is perfect. Oh I wish Hasbro/Takara or even the Transformers Collector's Club could have made this guy! Then Takara could have had a more accurate Wipeout in their United line too. Hope your auction does well!

    Looks very cool! I often wondered why HasTak never gave us a Tailgate using this mold.
