I love Wheeljack! Who doesn't? But the Combiner Wars toy really left me feeling, meh.

Has/Tak did such a great job re-tooling the Lambo mold to be Jack. After a close inspection, I'd say at least 85% of his surfaces were re-sculpted. Which probably ate up all of the paint budget.

But have no fear, Some intricate taping and cutting, a quick spray, and Wheeljack can really shine!


Taped and tucked.


Bagged and tagged.


Rust-oleum to the rescue!


Oh how I love peeling tape!
It's like Christmas morning.









Just a quick down and dirty Photoshop comp.

The spray coating makes a world of difference. I still don't really like this look of the figure, but you made it appealing to the point where I'd consider giving hi a glance. Good job.

Thanks Slasher!
They really did do a good job of re-tooling the figure to be Wheeljack. They just dropped the ball on the paint.

He looks more appealing like this, I may have to buy one now

Great job with spray and masking, that extra bit of black's just what the doctor ordered for this figure.
