Today I got up early, and it was such a nice day I hit the local flea market. They did not have anything G1...till I came across a bunch of matchbox like cars and thought HEY I recognize those...
Wheeljack and Jazz had matchbox like cars, so I grabbed them for a buck and brought them home for the collection.
Although the Porsche is #5, its the same car and paint skeme as our Jazz, and the Lotus, that has the right stripes and # 539. as luck would have it, they had an extra Lotus minus the #, I bought that as well. Now that I think of it I should have gotten another Porsche to make a custom Stepper. Ah well.
I made a digibash of the Marlboor car so far, so I hope continue the G1 related collection. At least they would look good along with an Action Master or something.

Here's the finished Marlboor Wheeljack Matchbox Diaclone Custom...
Lets see them try and send this post elsewhere.
Is it CUSTOM
is it PRE - TF
is it TOY GENERAL DISCUSSION????
Mu HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cleaned the car
painted the hood white
then after a couple hours, taped it off and painted red
repainted white parts that came off because I RUSHED
made the stickers on the computer, and printed out on Lable sheets, and cut and pasted on the car.
Only thing I did not do was tint the windshield, or put the sun visor sticker on the windshield because I don't think it will fit right.
Also I regret to inform that the JAZZ is not the right year car. Though its close, this has raised head lights, Jazz has the flat hood, so its the wrong one.
