hello folks hope i am doing this right. anyways i am going to build a diaclone marlboor wheeljack need some good pics of the head so i can sculpt one. if some one could also sell or tell me how to find the correct takara wheeljack that would be awsome as well . i know i need a prerub one but i am unsure if the takara stamp mark is different on the diaclones. also i will be producing the clear blue wings and windshield in febury or march if anybody is interested

my first donor car from ebay total cost 15.00. you gota love the raw ones you can see so much potential without destroying any value. took him apart today and ordered the stickers from reprolabels.com gota love how simple the g1 figures are all donor parts for a beter figure that is comin or later wheeljack projects i may have up my sleeve. i also found all the parts i need to make him a marlboor wheeljack from that repro parts place (cant rember the name right now) but i am having a hard time figuring out how to place an order. wish they had a beter checkout system

bad news the project is going to be delayed . i thought i was going to be able to buy the parts from transrepro.com but the site has not been updated in a year the guy had a stroke sometime in 2006 and now he does not respond to my emails.d#$%it back to plan A sculpt the head part this is something i have never done before it puts a real kink in my plans. i do have a friend that can help thank god.
i will post more pictures of the semi complete wheeljack when the stickers arrive

well i have hit a few snags getting parts looks like i am going to have to make the blue parts and head. i bought an original set of wings today so i can cast a mold from them. also my reprolabels came today i am very happy they are really nice not sure if i am going to use the red stickers instead of painting. spray painting is going to look more original and correct. so that maybe the way to go i may just spray paint the top and use the red stickers for the rest because those are the stickers that does not look good to me. either way i will be showing at least a partially done version soon i have to repaint the front end so thats going to slow me down. my only gripe about the stickers is i wish they were printed on clear rather than white vinyl

all your pics you posted just say "this pic has been moved or deleted. Photobucket." Are you sure they let you host pics to use on other websites?
