    My Titans Return custom faceplate Shapeways project: Update: DinoForce Shell pg 2

    Ever since Titans Return was announced I've been working on a way to expand out the ranks of the Titan Masters. The connection points are consistent across most of the figures, allowing for a simple swap of the face-plate with a screwdriver.

    This lead to me creating a miniature pretender shell for Slog that can hold a Titanmaster. Don't ask me why.

    I have ten faces up right now, and I'm working on many more.

    Edit: I just updated with four Gobots Renegades, the shop is here.

    I love it. Even announced the discovery of this in Titans return appreciation thread. Steamshield had the combiner wars shapeways market, looks like you may have the start of taking the Titans return. Thank you so much for creating these. The prices are great too

    Is the slog kit that comes with the faceplate the same size as the other two when assembled?

    Love the rescue bot heads and love the idea of the pretender shell even though I have no interest in that particular one .

    Please do a pretender she'll for the head of toy worlds grand max figure . Been wishing for that for a long time . You could then repaint it in the clubs megatron colors too

    Well, problem is, I don't have that figure, and unless the head on that is about the size of a Titan Master head, a shell for it is going to be shockingly expensive to print. the walls have to be at least 2mm thick to ensure printing and stability, so even hollow there's a lot of material there, and material and machine-print-bay-space are how the costs are calculated.

    The head is basically the same size of the original headmasters from the 80's

    Bludgeon or Impactor? BW Megatron? How about a Galvatron, then we don't have to do any mod to our figure? A lot of ppl might jump on that. No cutting required would be sweet

    The masks are kinda silly (they look like halloween masks) But man, the Monster Pretender shells... I would like to see that but for bigger figures (legends class)
