BARRICADE

A lot has been going on since I've been on last. I have had a number of these car. This is my best one close to original as possible :-). Barricade first featured in 1990 as part of a Decepticon race track patrol team, his vehicle mode being a Formula One racing car. A second Barricade was made in the Transformers Energon series as the leader of the team that formed the body of Bruticus Maximus, his vehicle being a missile truck. And finally in the 2007 live-action movie, Barricade is a Decepticon that transforms into a Saleen S281E police car. This is my version with a small twist. I put a sweet Ford sticker on the hood. I have the lights on the top and head lights. Tail and brake lights also. The head light are blue :-). It has the green lights under the chassis. It is all wheel drive and has metal bearings in the front knuckles. Front disc brakes. Blue springs. The rear tires have the wheel spacers and the wide rear axles. This make the car handle super sweet and it looks better than any i have seen. The chassis as of now, only has a few upgrades. This one I am in no hurry to complete. It is and will always be ready to run. It is a Saleen Mustang and will run as such. I have lithium batteries on the way. I will keep you posted :-).
