    I walked into my local carwash and they had some penny-racers with the same wheelbase and tire size as G1 Bumblebee and Cliffjumper...:inquisiti  so here are some minibot reshells...

    For the cement truck, I used Huffer, obviously, the F1 car, and Green truck were Cliffjumper keychains, the White car a Bumblebee keychain.

    The only gripe is the F1 car, those small feet were hard to work with, I had to nix the original feet transformation and give him hindged feet with heels so he could stand. His feet dont fit quite the way I want in car mode, so I bought a few more to do over. I also got a box of Cliffjumper keychains and picked up a few Takara Choro-Q racers, so the next ones I do, Ill take some pics for a turorial.

    Wow. Those are great. I thought they were some sort of knock off when I first saw them. I especially love the huffer/mixing truck.
