    Hey Guys.
    This isn't yet complete but thought is share. This chap has had gaps/screw holes filled, major seams smoothed and his head resculpted. He then had a complete repaint and finally some one off decals applied. I've lost count of the hours spent so far and I still have plenty of tidying up and some more weathering/effects to do!
    If you like what you see then please join me on Facebook. There are plenty more in-progress photos :)

    I say the arms should have had more red, but otherwise that's perfect. Looks just like the aligned continuity intended.

    Looks beautiful. I like the big logo on the sholder and the USDOT number is too rad. Kinda wish I could see the logo in the alt mode pic

    Looks awesome, I like the alt mode details the best, this figure is kind of odd though as soon as someone paints the arms and adds colour to the chest it looks 100% better.

    I like it.

    The air dam could prolly do just fine w/o the Autobot logo, to make it a lil more G1 - but I think this looks great as is.
