I had almost ditched this one, but after working on the arms tonight, he's back on board.

The kit came with marlboro decals which would be kind of cool to have a diaclone version of him but not that cool. eh, we'll see how that goes. the legs and arms come from classics mirage. the head and feet are cast from energon downshift. the feet joints are bionicle. shoulder joints came from classics firebot and cybertron clocker. door flap joints came from classics divebomb. :shock:

and yes, he tranforms...for now.
anyway here he is.
thanks for lookin'

That's pretty nice. Cant wait to see the finished work.

neat

Wheel Jack, you are insane! Do you ever not make an awesome custom? If your past work is any indication, this custom will be amazing.

Your new project looks promising. Looking forward to the finished product

The more Wheeljack the better!
Although nothing beats his alternators version...

Looks good so far. Look forward to seeing this develop.

Posted: **Sun Nov 04, 2007 3:18 pm**

Oh no way! I can not wait to see this. :shock:

Posted: **Sun Nov 04, 2007 4:23 pm**

Awesome!

I can't wait to see his finished form, and his alt mode as well.

Good stuff. Classics Mirage is to Wheel_Jack what Doc Ock is to Jin!

you guys are laying it on a little thick.

thanks fellas. you sure know how to encourage a guy. I put in an hour tonight but it doesn't look like much. here's a picture of what the alt mode is looking like so far.
Servo, you are to me what wind is to wings. :wink:

He looks even better than your Tracks re-shell! I love how you used Downshift's feet too; I didn't notice that the first time around. You really nailed the vehicle mode man! I have a very hard time modding Transformers with realistic car modes.

Raul was tracks' buddy back when most of you were still sperm. :shock:

Ok, I'll give you one bajillion dollars for him? Deal?

Posted: **Wed Nov 21, 2007 4:16 pm**

Looking great. a little paint and polish and he'd look awesome.

Posted: **Wed Nov 21, 2007 5:06 pm**

Posted: **Wed Nov 21, 2007 5:28 pm**

Cooler than a DJ showdown at Dancitron!
