Description
A 'repaint' I did using Instructions for TF: CYBERTRON Hot Shot I scanned myself from the copy of the instructions that came with the toy, and then edited by me.Tracks. Obviously. So much in common with the Hot Shot/Excellion mold. I decided to go a little different with this repaint. I did a STRAIGHT Excellion re-deco. I switched a few of the paint apps around (colorwise) but I used the exact same deco pattern. I think I could have done a little better, painting the whole head white and all, adding more blue to the chest, etc. But this time, I wanted to go this way. Dunno why. I still think it manages to look good, and I still think it manages to make a good Tracks homage.

Wooo! That's great! I'd buy anything that's blue and called Tracks, but this is a great mold for him. I never thought of it before. As it happens, I'm watching Auto-Bop right now.

But as a TOY he was always pretty badass, heh

Roul: "Yo, Mang! I needs cash more than I needs a set of wheels!"
Tracks: "More than you need a friend?"
My Dad: "Honey! The kids are watching a cartoon where Mr. Howell from Gilligan's Island is driving a sports car and making a pass at a young man!"
My Mom: "Boys! Go play outside! NOW!"

...Hey waitaminute...when I was watching that cartoon, MY parents told me if a stranger wanted me to get in the car with him, go ahead. And the more effeminate they were, the better... I always thought they just wanted me to play with a real transformer, my lifelong dream...but now...
WHY DIDN'T YOU LOVE ME MOMMY AND DADDY?!?!? WHY DIDN'T YOU WANT ME?!?!?! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?

Y'know, I'm still amazed that this mold lends itself so much to repainting. With the addition of what you've managed to do with your repaint ideas, Hasbro'd have a field day planning eventual recolored releases of Cyb Hot Shot and Excellion well into 2008. Heh heh.
And I like that you kept the paint apps pattern from the toy. Makes it look just that different enough from the original to give it some personality. Very good job.
