New Bumblebee... I need to find that silver piece in black. I think I have ONE somewhere, but I haven't been able to locate it yet. And if I could replace the grey cockpit with a clear counterpart, that'd be perfect. Old version: Bumblebus!
I think these are great....kind of big on the backpack part but still love the idea...can't wait to see more
Make as many of these things as you CAN! Oh, I just love these! They're Shellformers! That's such a brilliant use of Kreons!
"Kinda big" is an understatement. LOL! Very hard to pull off a decent alt mode with no partsforming and so little room. Biggest challenge was to have all wheels touching the ground. Wheels plugged in the legs don't work, they need to come from somewhere else.
I think I liked the Optimus one better, but I like that these Kreons can be made to transform at all. Great work.
I think this design would make cool Ironhide & Ratchet with the proper colors, so I'm going to try something else for Bumblebee.
I've tried different designs this morning, didn't take pictures though: -car (didn't like it, it didn't transform at all) -quad bike/chopper (worked better, but the scale didn't seem right to me) -longboard (out of despair - tribute to Armada Grindor) I think I'll just rebuild the Bumblebus for now...
All wheels can fold all the way back, plus the front, but then the figure wouldn't be able to balance.
