Although Steamroller usually just sat in it or fixed vehicles, my MCC got lots of play time as a kid. I wanted a modern Steamroller for awhile and it would have been an easy repaint for Hasbro or the club, but it never happened so here is my take. I like characters to be easily recognizable but sometimes trying to make an exact match is detrimental. I thought gluing a big holster on the front of his belt would look out of place so I left it off. The tattoo is on the wrong arm, but Monkeywrench has a tattoo already that I just painted over.

Easily recognizable as Steam Roller. Nice job. I agree this could have been an easy repaint and its a shame he was overlooked.

Drill a tiny hole in that belt buckle and add an MTF holster and you're golden!
