NO pics yet, but they will come. For now I'll tell you what I'm using, subject to change. Optimus for the body, Skids for one arm, Universe Whirl for one arm, a KO Toyota Crown Police car for one leg, and a KO sport bike for one leg. I would use all Takara pieces, but I like the Toyota police car better for a leg, because of the size, and I don't know of a Takara Motorcycle large enough. I will post pics ASAP.

Well, it's got to be an EMSA type van. I haven't got that arm quite figered out, but I think it will look deceptively smaller once painted white. I've only been working on it for 2 days I don't really know what I'll do for sure until I get my Motorcycle/leg. It may not work with the Car leg, we'll see.

personally I'd switch the scion and motorcycle placement, making both alternators legs should help a lot.

Looks interesting so far. What's the car? Is it a Roadbot, just a normal model car, or some kind of bootleg-type thing?

Found it on EBAY under Transformable Robots a couple weeks ago, they had the Fire Dept car at the time also. Straight from China in a pretty smashed up box, but still nice on the inside. Not as much articulation as the Alts.

Once again the blade is mightier than the finger. I got in a hurry and popped the exacto knife underneath my thumbnail, nasty cut in the strangest place I've ever had. I just need to keep some leather gloves on. Got a little more done on Defensor. His head now works G1 style and slips neatly over the top of Hotspots head, which is a modified Optimus head. Fists are detachable G1 style made from Beast Wars Optimal Optimus. Working on the Chestplate, 2 separate peices. Blades now attaches to optimus arm by way of a peg neatly hidden by a gun that rests on top of the cockpit cover. Working on Skids EMS interior, not sure what all to put where the back seats were. Any thoughts? Also need some Fire Pickup Pics to determine what I want in the back of Optimus/hotspot's bed ie ladder, firehose. Pics are hard to do, so they will come later.
