Quick gauge of interest, would people buy prints of kits like my HOS shockwave armour here. Obviously would be a chunk more expensive than the megatron shoulders Things in my life have improved and I want to start testing the waters of selling more complex prints online

I finally made another toy! I love Whirl, but balancing proportions, kibble and transformation proved to be quite the challenge But he finally works! the joints need refinement and the alt mode need locking tabs, but he's almost there! And he's definitely coming to TFN

Demo of the new range and look. I'll put files up this weekend once I've tweaked them a bit

I wanted to love Armada Megatron, but the lack of backwards shoulders just kill a lot of good poses and all neutral stances So I made new shoulders. Full forward and backward movement, still transforms, only downside is they sit slightly less tight. Now I do love him!

Whirl is COMPLETE! ...ish I still need to break the model down for printing, but what you're seeing here is a fully transforming and articulated figure! Turns out making a lanky kibble free robot transform is quite hard, but I've finally solved most of it. Onto printing!

Need to add in all the joints for the backpack, but I've spent a long while making sure all the movements will work, just need to implement Both photo's show the exact same components and mass. Whirl is so, so close

Getting there. Lots of minor mechanics updates and joint placement changes need doing. Probably a few more days to work out final compression of the backpack and do cleanup, but test printing of Whirl will start soon

Saw this on facebook but not seen it here. Seems to be an approximately voyager scale Armada Starscream from a new 3P company MSS Looks good to me, odd timing but I'm definitely down

I dont care about the head. Its fine. It's not worth getting mad about I grew up in the generation of "characters are gonna look like whatever". I want them to make me connect with the character on screen If this is Megatron, this can be Wheeljack

Slightly late, but here is a full transformation demo for Scrapper. Hopefully its useful for anyone printing a copy and interesting for anyone not Now the video is finished, this particular chap is off to a new home youtube.com/watch?v=pTsbYQ…

Scrapper's files have been released! Finally! You can get the files now over on Cults3D: cults3d.com/en/3d-model/va… Its taken far too long to get this guy finished and out, but I hope it was worth the wait. Transformation demo will drop tomorrow evening Happy Printing!

Pipes, Pipes, Pipes and the gang are all ready for TFCon. These 10 lads will be available to buy at the convention. No pre-orders, it's a first come first serve basis @ChromeTyranno has been generous enough to offer me some sales space on his table because he is a hero

Little PSA for people, there's a very easy mod you can do to give studio series Ironhide more natural and dynamic split hip skirts instead of the solid plank he comes with Honestly, I'm 100% certain this was intentional design

Scrapper 2.0 is complete! This version has severely revamped mechanics on basically everything from the hips up. This new version is more articulated, sturdier and has a few more details in Now, he needs a friend and I intend to give it to him!

Scrapper is done. This is the finished version, all mechanics implemented and all models broken down for printing. There is a non-zero chance of me getting to finish the test build tomorrow night As a fun bonus, pre-decepticon Scrapper

And with that, all revised mechanics in Scrappers torso are complete! I'm really proud of how it all works, getting the scoop arm to fold up as tightly as it does was a hell of a challenge, and there's not much wiggle room, but the result should be clean and secure in both modes

Metroplex is awesome! Great fun to mess with, incredible articulation for a titan and honestly, I actually really dig is 2 alternate modes in hand, even the vehicle Gets a bit emotional having the big ticket figure this year being a design from MY childhood for once

Powermaster prime can now be downloaded in full on cults3D: cults3d.com/en/3d-model/va… Thanks for the patience everyone, more to come soon! The files are free, and future animated stuff will be too, but tips are welcomed over on ko-fi: ko-fi.com/sam_makes_toys

Animated Powermaster Optimus Prime! Here he is once again, a long awaited V2 with many significant improvements in stability. He's based as closely as possible on the cancelled official figure. I'm really happy with him!

Can we take a moment to appreciate Elita's design? Front grill chest, shoulder headlights. Door skirts and 4 very rugged looking wheels I think she becomes an off road 4x4, if I had to place my bets I'd say pickup truck
