Saw someone do this a while ago and figured I give it a shot after bought an extra Cliffjumper the other day. I think this looks amazing definitely might be my mainline cliff for now. And yes he does transform with no issues. You can also plug his hand cannons onto his rocket for storage if you want
🦾 1981. No movies. No cartoon. No hype.
🦾 Just a 27-year-old artist, an airbrush, and a blank canvas.
🦾 That artist was me.
👋 I'm Mark Watts — the man who painted the G1 Transformers into existence.
🎯 Nearly 50 characters. All mine.
🎯 Bumblebee. Jetfire. Shockwave. Cliffjumper. Brawn. Gears.
🎯 Painted by hand. One stroke at a time.
That box you ripped open on Christmas morning?
That art you couldn't stop staring at?
💥 I made that.
Now I'm 71. Still standing. Still creating.
And yeah — I won't be around forever.
🕰️ So here's your shot:
🖼️ A hand-signed print — from my hands to your wall
💎 Museum quality — worthy of the legend it represents
📦 Direct from my studio — no middleman, no nonsense
⏳ While supplies last — and while I last!
Cheers! 😄

It started with blokees Optimus prime , then jingke nemesis prime, then got lucky with Megatron blokees wheels...
My favorite transformer is Bumblebee. He has been for years.
Then one day last year, on a whim, I got the Classics Gears figure.
Now, 437 days later, this is where I’ve spiraled to.
I own $290 with just these 11 toys, plus Cliffjumper and Tailgate on preorder. You can say I’m a little addicted. These are my favorite autobot group though, and I’ll do whatever it takes to get the full set.
Is this cool or not?
I recently put together what might be my favorite bootleg robot bundle in years.
It's a complete set of four factory-sealed 80s transforming robot bootlegs featuring names like Executive DX Blood, Double Striger, Millheli, and Super Inter BW-2.
The artwork borrows inspiration from Machine Robo, Gobots, and just about anything else the designers thought looked cool. Every box is completely different, yet somehow they all belong together.
Honestly, these kinds of bootlegs capture the creativity of the era better than many licensed toys.
