    It was weird to keep using Earth alt-mode Bumblebee inside Cybertronian Wheeljack. That finally got to me, so here's starting off on this fella, scaled to fit inside Wheeljack:

    Going to have to re-imagine a few bits of him but this should be a fun ... will spin him off into a separate thread once I get a little more headway with him :)

    Wow! That's going to be awesome. I hope we also get to see these two have WFC figures.

    That is awesome. Great job on the design, build and the likeness to the source material!

    Sorry to get us off topic again, but I just remembered where my Bumblebee is from! It was a con exclusive SOAP figure. It actually says "Hasbro" on the bottom! It came with a Starscream but I gave it to a friend.

    I think there are 200 in the world.

    Now all you need is a ring of fire. I was thinking of making fire effects with a hot glue gun and going to teach myself that eventually.

    That's a brilliant idea! Maybe this can be done on top of LEDs so that they can be lit with within? And painted with clear red/orange/yellows? ;) 


    As per an original idea - just scaled down and resin 3d printed version of Bumblebee which fits Wheeljack too! Here's some photos - enjoy!
