Would not be so bad if the dude knew more than one dance move...
I decided to treat myself and snagged an @mattelcreations Optimus Prime. It's pretty darn slick. I never had Optimus in the 80's, so it's really sweet to have such a cool version now.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this competition. Thank you, Dave, for providing an awesome prize! Whether we're doing it for a prize or just bragging rights, I'd like to leave a reminder to everyone...whether it's your first time building with us or it's your twentieth, I ask that you be respectful to the rules and your fellow competitors. We will not tolerate vote manipulation. It's not fair to anyone involved, so please don't do it. Thank you.
We'll be announcing the May Buildoff on the 1st. Keep your eyes peeled.

There's only 10 days left to submit your Gasser builds for a chance to win a sick dragstrip diorama from this buildoff's sponsor @dave_akers_customs
⛽️EDG GASSER BUILDOFF⛽️ It's time to hit the drag strip with your custom 1:64 diecast Gasser!
Your Gasser must be from the 50's or 60's. The front end must be lifted. Traditionally, the exhaust exits from the front fenders, but it is not necessary. You may use a pre-built Gasser casting or create your own. Now, who's ready to lay down some rubber???
⏰️ DEADLINE
Sunday, April 28th
12:00 pm noon Pacific / 3:00 pm Eastern
Rules:
1️⃣ You must make a custom Gasser drag race car. New builds only. No stock paint. Limit 1 entry.
2️⃣ No sharing progress/completed pictures on your page or stories until after the voting has concluded.
3️⃣ UPDATED RULE: Send me (EDG) up to 8 pictures using a solid colored background. Send me the pics in a DM or an email.
[ 16:9 ], [4:3] and 1:1 □ square aspect ratios only. I've had to spend way too much time editing buildoff pictures because they're not all the same ratio. I'm not fixing them anymore. Do your photos get super compressed on IG? Then send me an email for higher quality images.
4️⃣ We will be having an anonymous public vote on April 28th - 29th.
