<B>TheGuruNow's Doctored Tech Specs</B>

<DIV ID=comm>Back when the Fox Kids Transmetal repaints came out for the Beast Wars toyline, I decided that I liked the figures better as new characters rather than unexplained recolors of existing characters. So I created some new characters based on the Fox Kids color schemes, and then, to further develop the characters, I digitally recolored the toys' "tech spec" cards to match the recolored toys, and gave them new bios and stats. The recolors were fairly popular online, where I then went by the name "TheGuruNow", and I had a few requests to "doctor" specific tech specs with a new color scheme. Also, for fun, I doctored a handful of tech specs to represent other exisiting characters or toys.
