i know right know its only the renders, but a friend of mine will be sending me the actual photos of the set installed this week anyaway here is the info i had a generations thundercracker, and unlike most people i HATED it but my friend, actually loves the mold(has a henkei starscream, universe starscream and universe acid storm) the reasons are, articulation, proportions and height so having it in hand and my friend telling me every single time "you can do 3d parts, why dont you make a coronations set", well, there was already a coronation set available, but he didnt have enough money for it so he kept telling me about it every time, then i though, hey its true, i CAN make 3d parts, but why just stop there(the coronation set) if i hate the figure because "specific" reasons, why havent i already made a set to adress those 6 months later, i finished it(except a single piece i will talk about later) i made a completely new shoulder, and hips, but, it wont replace anything, instead they will extend the actual figure with those so one will take off the leg from the balljoint and add the new one and plug the original leg into it, the same with the shoulders(universal joints) what will this improve: now it will have better proportions, with longer arms, and slightly longer legs bicep and thigh swivel legs will be able to move forward to 90 degrees doesnt sound like much but is all i could do without replacing everything, yet those will improve completely the figure because the legs will be farther, i had to make some panels to fill the gap, and those panels will rotate and collapse to form some sideskirts(only a cm long, so they wont look anything like the original mp, dont worry)of course the panels will feature a new hole for the wings to rest one, because the original(in the legs) will be a cm farther away the arms wont be able to hide inside the torso completely for vehicle mode, but i made it able to transform in two ways, one will require the nullrays to partsform(as they where originally) and only a bit of the arm will be outside, and everything else will be still inside the vehicle mode, the other one, the whole arm except the new shoulder will be visible under the wings, but the nullrays wont need to be removed, of course some small details were made to make it less obvious there will be an alternate shoulder included, a foldable coronation style (but slightly different)shoulder which features a tip that folds, not only for storage but to make it look different, the original will be squared off shoulders detailed like the masterpiece the square shoulders will be compatible with the coronation set i made(but not with the coronation styled one sbecause that would be pointless), which was originally designed to fit the figure without the upgrade i made a pressure launcher nullray(but because of the size, which is way smaller than the original nullrays the figure comes with) they wont launch too far, depending on how you flick the missile it will gor as far as a 10cms(maybe more who knows) or not even get out of the launcher, the molding still will work like if it wasnt a launcher there will be new shoulder joints with a hinge(simmilar idea but not detail as the one from the addon), the original is the only piece that will need to be replaced coronation shoulderpads will be able to store in vehicle mode under the wings, and the new nullrays inside them, they will have a clip on the back to well, clip a cloth cape, making one would have raised too much the price of the set a crown that is way smaller than the one of that addon set, and more detailed as well,and not only it will look better but wont hinder head rotation, it will be able to store in the center of the jet, without problem i didnt work on the head because it needed way more than just adding an extended joint finally, a pair of small wings that will plug on the outside of the 5mm ports n the wings for an idw/movie/prime, extra set of wings if you want whats missing aside the photos, i need to take some meassures on trhust because the noew wing joint isnt compatibe with it(neither of the thrust molds) since dirge and ramjet have almost no wings in the shoulders to hinder movement, the extra wing joints are not needed, but of course i need to add something to fill the gap, of course their nullrays will feature the rounded missiles, and of course you can mix and match parts for each of your seekers, coneheads, rainmakers, and others based on the mold to make them unique just finished the conehead missile,s but they are not available right now, the set includes everything else, yeah it includes two of the joints for the wings on each side, because its such an small part, better not take risks and include a replacement CORONATION SET ONLY; AVAILABLE https://www.shapeways.com/product/KKMRAJSEX/classics-starscream-coronation-set full upgrade(not conehead) will be available as soon as my friend sends me the photos of it installed https://www.shapeways.com/product/R7UHFJPUT/seeker-classics-upgrade-full conehead version will be available as soon as i get the meassures for the three wings UPDATE: first photos(coronation shoulderpads, crown and nullrays for now) PHOTO PROVIDED AGAIN BY MY FRIEND (jorge guerra aka majinstarscream)he only instaled the coronation set he posted another two photos but those are NSFW, kinda, so, they wont be posted here AND A TEASER(unlike the one above which he posted in his facbook, these ones are not, last one doesnt look that good but, whatever, these are the other parts, the ACTUAL upgrade)
I wanna see the final rendition. Sounds great Can someone make me a MTMTE version of chrome dome, I guess popular thing to do is use vehicon as a base. Little help? Head and parts
sadly since i dont own a rid vehicon, i cant do anything right now, honestly the closest thing to mtmte crhomedome in terms of "body" is animated rodimus, like this edited artwork i found
Cool I,m in for 7 sets been waiting for something like this for a very long time thank you in advance.
im waiting for my friend to paint it, and he is pretty lazy XD anyway u dont know when will be available the "conehead wing" version, because i have none of those, and im sure the leg extension will leave a gap on the wings,and thrust need a different wing joint for the back and forth movement
this looks great! I look forward to seeing the final print on the figures! great job with the design!
Teaser trailer only the coronation set, my friend still painting the other pieces, havent attached them to the figure, he will use that acid storm in the background just for the test, wen finished he will use his univer starscream
When the rest of the add on is finished can you post pics with out the coronation gear standing next to classics Sunstreaker/Sideswipe and RTS Jazz so we can see how this kit looks next to overly large deluxe s thanks.
actually my friend has red alert, so i think that would do the trick update: sadly it is not going to happen, my "friend" suddenly decided that he doesnt wanna do anything, and he lives way too far so its not like i can just go anddo it myself, so, yeah, no actual photos and no product sale will be available, EVER, unless someone wants to be a beta tester for the set
What how do we go about this how much to beta test this.and why cant i order a set and figure it out.
right now you have to wait until i finish the next version of the sed, including some slightly better details, improved conection and the wing addon for the dirge, thrust and ramjet wing types im just one "thrust" away from finsihing it, so be patient
at least until i get a beta test, and i have things to pay so i cant do it myself(only if i finish some corrections i dont need a beta test for, and shapeways goes free international shipping again)
