Post by: mitt on November 05, 2012, 07:27:49 PM
I put more hours into it than I would like to admit:

Mostly cardboard, with all thread for axles.  Majority spray painted with detail hand painted.

He loved it, all 300 kids and adults that came through our hood liked it, and typically got 3 pieces of candy at each house we stopped at due to its coolness.

Next year: an M1000s costume.  Then you can justify buying new mods/parts.  ;)

Not to mention the great big smile on his face in the photos, then I'm guessing it was worth every minute!

Great job!!!!
