I imagine that at least one person on these forums will have figured out what a good Hoist that Longarm will make, so I went with something a little differient- WreckGar!
His paint job's pretty far along, but as you can see he still lacks a head. I'm working on it. You'll see something as soon as I have it to show.

Good call on Hoist...I'm in the process of finding just the right colors for mine!

Excellent call on making Wreck-Gar, though. It's looking mighty fine so far!!

Thanks guys! It's always bothered me that WreckGar's only ever had one figure in all these years! That should be changing with the new show, though!

a modified barricade head would be perfect for wreck-gar.

That is genius!!

I never would of thought of that. The face fuzz looks awesome too!

How did Wreck-Gar grow a beard in G1?

I'd always assumed that he found it.

The color fits very nicely to the vehicle.

I must say, the head sculp is amazing!

And it even comes with light piping to the eyes!

Now that is simply awesome! I love it!

Don't get me wrong. This project of yours looks REALLY good except....

I just don't think REAL hair should be on him. Perhaps if you slicked it together with glue or something that will harden, but still be bendy or modify a Deluxe Movie Barricade head. Other than the real-like hair, though, I absolutely love it and I think it was amasingly creative of you to come up with this idea.

It actually is styled with Krazy Glue and acrylic paint.
You don't just roll off the junk pile looking that good!
By the way, I don't see how a Barricade head looks at all like Wreck-Gar.

I love it! With that beard, he reminds me of Gimli, but in robot form. The beard looks out of place, but oh so awesome!

Well, the Barricade head has something like a plastic/rubber beard and Mustach which, with your obvious skills could be painted and altered to look like Wreck-Gar. I hope I didn't make you mad, it's just that robots don't generally grow hair that looks like, well, hair. Just trying to help, sorry.
