Yeah, but mostly just white wash (Krylon Fusion plastic spray paint should be perfect) which won't be so hard on a yellow plastic, painting Sideswipe white would be a challenge.
Looking forward to hearing how their work is.

Just got my City Commander ver 2008 add-on!
Much better!!! ^_^
The G1 missile launchers really didn't do it justice.
The extra faces... I got skeert, trying to pull out his old face - forget it. It's fine the way it is! ^_^;
I gotta say, I'm really impressed with FansProject.
The price is high, but not rediculous - like the WJ upgrade Coldiron mentioned.
Forget that!

Pics of the wheel jack kit in vehicle mode with stickers and white paint. I think painting the windows black instead of using stickers will look better. mastercollectors.blogspot.com/2009/12/finally-wj-in-full-technicolors.htmlEDIT: I got in the parts they make for models. Its essentially recasted hands from a gundam kit. The quality is OK. I do not have a lot of experience with resin, but I can tell these need to be cleaned up a little. While the casting is good, I do not think they can hold much other than light plastic guns etc..., which they mention in the listing. They were not cheap either. Since they are a kit for modelers, I expect that is why they left it to the customizer to clean up. If that is not the case, I would like to see a review of the Wheeljack kit before suggesting that people consider buying their kit. Though, if you are going through the trouble to paint a classics figure, it might not be a big deal to cut off some small flash from the kit. Double Edit: Speak of the devil, they might be sending me a kit to review. |

Transformers TFC-005 Gear of War Weapons pack #2. Box  The back of the box lists the arrangement of the accessories for when you’re returning the parts into the trays (smart call actually).  Also, the box top has holes where you can test the LED switches. Press once to turn on the LED, press again to turn it off.  The set actually only holds 2 guns (For Alternity and Classics Primes) with an upgrade parts kit for turning the Classics gun into a blaster for ROTF Leader Classics Prime.  Whoa! Powerful LED!  Batteries inside (each contains 3 button-type batteries). Take note of how the compartment opens (especially the left one for Alternity). The illustration on the manual is all wrong.  Alternity Rifle    Classics/Henkei Rifle  The Alternity rifle can also be equipped on Classics/Henkei Prime.    Leader Class   Admittedly, the new Leader Class Buster Prime rifle is bigger and looks more impressive, so this one is a bit of a miss now. TF Club also removed the silver paint from some of the parts, which is a shame, really since the silver paint added some character to the rifle.  Although I haven’t tried it I think the LC gun might also fit on the Masterpiece Primes. The rifle can also be assembled without the LED gun as a sort of a makeshift “grenade laucher”.  The Alternity rifle’s LED can be removed and attached to the back of Classics Prime.   Dramatic Lighting   All together.  Strange but TF Club didn’t take into account making the rifle viable for Binaltech BT-22 Prime, a simple parts add on would’ve sufficed.  Another downside is that the Alternity rifle is really tight, I wouldn’t recommend inserting it all the way into the fist since the gun handle is really thin plastic (thanks to Takara-Tomy making the fist slits so thin). LED brightness.     Overall, an excellent set! $30, I’m really thinking about getting a second set. Gold |

DAMN! So not only is this an upgrade set, but they also made some original figures for Blastoff and I'm also guessing Swindle! That's really awesome, but now it's certain that this won't be another $50+/- upgrade, but probably closer to the City Commander price.

Yeah, I imagine this will be much more expensive. While it was great, the Superion kit did not have that many parts to it. I imagine something with similar parts, plus a new head plus a new bot will equal a decent bit more.

I think we're in for two new bots if they do make a Swindle. In the silhouette image the other leg isn't a tank. Looks like the main body/Onslaught is going to have some considerable alterations too to form the shuttle platform.

Neat, I like how they're using an Energon Strongarm in place of swindle. Also like that their version has the chest shield. Not too crazy about the arms, though, or the lack of paint.
