Nice work!

I just checked out your blog too. That custom Barricade is fantastic! Does it really transform with all the modifications, or do some parts have to be removed first?

Y'know, you'll wait ages for Hasbro to make a bus, then 2 will come along at once (they do love those repaints!). ;)

Thank you for the help chaps. I have bought some surgical spirit (it's what we call rubbing alcohol in the UK apparantly) and it works a treat. I have even managed to clean up Wheeljack's formerly blacked out headlights. :) Now I just have to decide whether I should go with the pristine white look o...

Very nice kitbash! The head looks bang on...I've never noticed the resemblance before. What is rather annoying is the fact that Hasbro seemed to be happy to churn out uninspired repaints of minor characters such as Rollbar and Ricochet towards the end of the Alternators line when more iconic charact...

Yeah, Counago is back with us after a brief sojourn back in Spain. Doing well too (at least at home). Very nice touch. Not quite in the Johnnie Wark class of legend yet, as you say, but surely only one more departure from/heroic return to the club and an appearance in a cult football related film st...

And feet. Don't forget the feet.

If it weren't for the feet we'd all just pay to watch a load of all balls.

It's just Norwich City fans that do that.

@ Wildrider

Your mention of Tony Dinning bought back horrible memories of him turning out for Ipswich Town on loan a few years back. Yikes! Doctor, begin the hypno therapy now! I MUST have that memory removed...

:eek:

Paint removal question

Hi All! Am thinking about kitbashing an Alt Breakdown from Alt Wheeljack. I'd like to remove the blue stripes on the Mustang rather than do any repainting. I am sure there is a way to do this (esp. having seen Clay's excellent Magnus), but am not sure of what I need to use or the best method. Can an...

Movie alts

I would love to see an Alt Barricade. That would rock! :headbang: The others you mention would be wonderful too. A great way for Hasbro/Takara to re-activate the dormant Alt/BT line, imho. Oh, and MP Blackout and MP Brawl please, Takara, if you are reading this!!! How do people here rate the chances...

Hmmm, much as I hate to slag off my fellow Wreckers, both Top Spin and Twin Twist always struck as uninspired lumps of plastic. So, it's a robot that fold in half and makes a...a...well, a folded-in-half-robot vehicle. Great. Broadside also deserves, erm, a broadside too. Yikes, he was bad. I also h...

Hello!

Hi all! Just thought I'd introduce myself... I'm a TF fan from the UK, and am mainly into collecting toys rather than comics or anything else. My area of interest is Alts/BTs, MPs and a few Classics at the mo (c'mon Hasbro, make a Ratchet Alt for me!!!). I enjoy messing around with Alts to make diff...
