Excellent job! And I love the Dr. Who phonebooth in Z-Force style! ;)

Great figures jimbo and I spotted something that might look good in a Z Force paint scheme. Take a look at this:

(hoping you see this before the auction finishes of course).

Repainting a mint Mauler, or even thinking about it, is blasphemy!

Agreed! Unless you paint it red.

ROFL!

This is really one of the holy grails of GI Joe. It would really be a waste if you'd paint this baby.

I disagree. It's a nice tank model, no better or worse than any other vehicle that jimbo has converted. I think it would look great in Z Force green and it's one of the few vehicles left that would fit with Z Force which he hasn't already converted!

Also it might well be a Holy Grail of a GI Joe collectors collection, but this board isn't about GI Joe. Here GI Joe toys are useful only in that they make great Action Force toys with a bit of work and a lot of paint.

Sure, but that puppy is MIB. Best to win it and trade for three ready-made Maulers.

Then I can have one too.

Exactly my point...

So were agreed, then. Jimbo wins the auction, gives the MIB Mauler to Brakkart who gives Jimbo, Jaye and I a ready-made Mauler each.

The problem is that I have such a psychological attachment to the Z Force Battle Tank, that I just couldn't put Steeler in anything else - and I couldn't give it to someone else. Blame 'Desert Strike' for working up such a memorable relationship between man and machine.
