Yes, and silverstreak head (altered). He sold copies of the head and chest.
We should start a thread for people who have some of his work. I have one of his sweeps

 

I like that idea!

I dont have anything from him... but i could share some of his WiP pics

 

Where should it go? Here in toy discussion or in radicon's with the customs?

 

For general customs, it should go in Creative General Discussion, since it's someone else's work. If it's Alt/BT related, it can be cross-posted here.

 

Here's my Alternator BlueStreak. After over a decade I finally did what I had planned. Cut holes in the roof, cut new windows for it, graved lines around them to look like the rubber gaskets, repainted to be more G1, and used Galaxy Blue for the hood and roof so that his name makes sense.


Thread for bluestreak over in radicon's

 

That turned out great! Thanks for sharing it with us here!

 

Hey alt fans, I remember back when they were new people used waterslide decals, and I thought that's what reprolabels sold, but turns out those are just stickers (thicker and see edges). What have you guys used and where do I buy them? Currently looking to improve Jazz, Hound, Skids, and Subaru Prowl in G1 decos. Oh, and maybe Trailbreaker from pickup mold.

 

Finally....

 

I've mainly used Reprolabels.

 

WIP so far

 

Looks nice! Did you an Alert for a base?

 

Nope. Ricochet. I had bought it before kiss was out, and wouldn't have had the money for it at the time. Found my old post from transtopia about this project, it's been 13 years of it sitting in a bin.

On page 138 I posted before I started painting the white.

 

Gotcha. I wasn't at a place where I could dig through posts. Plus, it's just fun to talk shop anyways   That white looks really nice. White can be an especially hard color to get right. Yellow as well.

I'm starting to encroach those kinds of numbers with some of my WIPs. I'm just not in a place that's conducive for me to work on much. Hopefully that'll change soon  

 

Yeah, this white was a total PITA. There was overspray past my masking into the interior of the hood and trunk areas, then one of the rear window panels didn't take the whole way, and when I tried to touch it up with another coat, it all cracked and pealed. The shoulders had to be redone twice. Still not quite happy, but at least the white is pretty bright. Oh, and when I tried to swap out the heals for some spares I had, I stripped a screw, and that foot is floppy now.

 

Has anyone bought this KO yet?

 

It has that look of "exploding out of the box".

 

i bought one loose wich arrived last week, without gun (and some sellers even sell it that way on aliexpress)

The plastic is a little softer in some spots compared to US Skids, specially the arm and wheel connectors. Plastic tolerances between pieces is pretty decent compared to the diecast KOs

Had to sand a little one of the rofftop hinges to fully collapse the backpack and need to trim some extra plastic on the grill. Finally, the face detail is not so good (not so sharp i mean)

Overall, i like it and is a great base for a Ratchet, event with little to no customization, but for other kind of repaints, i would go with Skids no doubt

 

I've been watching e-bay waiting for my chance to get an Alternator/Binaltech character. I've had Alternator Rodimus for a long time, but as much as I love all things Rodimus, I felt that the paint does the toy a disservice. However, I just one a bid for Binaltech Smokescreen and I am STOKED! I fear this may be the start of an addiction.

 

He was the first and still my favorite. You chose wisely.
