Hot damn I love that car mold, and I love what you've done to it - such a sleek white paintjob man!

I have similar problems with white and yellow. It's not obvious in the photos though, and I think its a brilliant idea, very well executed. Good job!:)

Actually, that might be where I got the idea from... but yeah, I didn't think that mold was suited to Downshift, in my humble opinion. It's still a nice job on it, though.

That looks AWESOME! :D

I also like the "reverse joke" of this custom... throughout the Unicron Trilogy Hasbro kept on calling Wheeljack "Downshift" (because at the time Aaron Archer had a firm belief that "Wheeljack" sounded like an evil name and refused to give it to an Autobot)... and now here we have a Wheeljack who's been customised as Downshift! Hilarious!! :D

Should've brought it back for an exchange (JMO). <shrug>

Now there's some toys I would love to see as Generations characters.
