Hi everyone,

I sincerely apologize in the long delay in showing off the vehicle modes for these customs. Better late than never, right? =)

Enjoy!

Take care,

pretty slick.
are the wings on Hoist on balljoints, or just loose in vehicle mode? that rear view they're very nonsymetrical.

Awesome. Hoist is my favorite--you did a great job with him. :)

Tasty stuff. I'm curious how the wings attach on Hoists's 'bot mode, and what happens to his hook, too. The head's spot on. It looks quite small though - is that a G1 Hoist head?

GOOD NEWS for fans and collectors!

I have acquired the parts necessary to make duplicates of the Hoist and Trailbreaker customs, so I will be listing the both of these on Ebay tomorrow morning. I know this will make a lot of people happy from all the different boards based on the feedback I have received over these two customs.

Keep your eyes peeled tomorrow, because they'll be going on Ebay shortly after I wake up!

Take care,

-Gregg

That silver you used on the forearms turned out really pretty. That's a hard color to make look good, at least for me.

Bravo!

that is a nemesis prime used for trailbreaker, right? You didn't go out and repaint a prime black for that one, did you?

Both figures were made from ALT Primes........No Nemesis Primes here. I did the whole paint scheme. In reference to the silver I used, that is Tamiya Chrome Silver spray paint. And you're right, that silver does come out looking good. I HIGHLY recommend it. You'll love the results. I use nothing but Tamiya paints. They're more expensive, but I think the results speak a 1,000 words.

Take care,
