I got your custom eBay auction linked too.

The paint job is so much better.

Post by: Darth More on January 24, 2020, 05:53:42 AM: I agree with Tamer! When I was looking for my Vulture Droid 3 days ago, I had the Wheel Bike in my hands, too. I tjhink the vehice itself is great and the colour of plastic Hasbro is also okay. I think I got mine loose for 20€ back in 2010. Now, I haven't seen it here in Germany any cheaper since then, but if I do, I might give it a repaint as well. Because our bike looks just like solid steel! REALLY awesome work here! I also don't know of anyone having it done before.
It does look much much better and screen accurate, now! And our current projects fir perfectly! The next one I'll post tonight is "hello there!".
Thumbs up for this cool project, buddy!
