    That is very cool but it has more in common with Alternators/BT than Classics since the design is very realistically detailed.

    It's 'Movie' Dead End.

    Nice... I hope I can find some more movie BB's and Cliffjumpers soon for some other repaints. I'm thinking Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are obvious choices but would look pretty cool.

    I really like this mould.

    A US Ebay auction. It had already ended by the time I posted.

    Here's the write-up...

    Hi. Up for auction is a custom Transformers Stunticon Deadend. He has been custom painted to resemble his G1 likeness and pessimistic attitude to go with his quote: "We are all just food for rust". Motivating him to fight is always a problem. He is vain and spends most of his time shining himself. I found him amusing this way and enjoyed that whenever showcased. I always liked his colors and the way his head looks like a motocross helmet with goggles. In car Mode, he goes 220mph. His radar scan covers a 200 mile radius. I custom made him another blaster/compressor-air gun that shoots a 40,000 psi blast of air---the fanboy in me couldn`t resist.

    For the painting effects I used a combination of acrylic, and enamel paints as well as utilizing the drybrushing, panel lining, and highlighting techniques to achieve a more detailed look. I fabricated a custom blaster for him too. For more detailed pics just click on the link provided: http://s107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ne_01/Deadend/ This figure will look in your collection. Especially next to the Classics 2.0 line that is coming our way soon. S&H will be $7.50 w/insurance included in the USA only. Outside the USA, S&H will be $14.00. GoodLuck.

    Actually the mold would make a cool Runamuck and Runabout, care to give those a try? and reprolabels has this new upgrade for the two anyways in their custom sticker section....

    One of the next waves of Movie deluxes has 2 black and 1 yellow BB08 per case of 8. They will have the battlemask heads tho. So hopefully they won't be that hard to find.

    If I find a black one I suppose a Runabout will be a must. I'll have to sell my Classics Runabout first though.

    Sweeeet. The new head mold does wonders and is more suitable actually to the figure! Well done!
