Ok, well, that doesn't surprise me. I've only ever seen it once in person, and that was quite some time ago. About how much bigger?
I'll be right back *grabs tape measure and goes upstairs* EDIT: You have them set to be around 2 inches, when in reality they are 4 inches.
Hmm....well, I'm not sure how good measurements will do me (as I don't have any of the parts for OS yet), but ok. The funny/sad thing about all this, is that it's getting me interested in some TF toys that I didn't have interest in before (Energon Wing saber for examble, who I'm thinking about using his legs for this bash). Edit: Ok, hmm....I'll have to find someone else's treads for this. BTW, if you look closely, I'm not even using his treads in the digibash, they are actually the ones from Cybertron Dark Scorponok, lol.
I'd say Menasor for the core, ditch the arms (if I recall, all the electronics are in the arm and only the arm) and use the landmine/quake treads. That should be about right in terms of sizing.
I think the treads could be ok. At least try it. It does not have to look realistic or in proportion. Oh I see you took cyb scorponok's... You got a great idea and I'd like to see more as it goes
I'm actually trying to keep the different TF parts in scale with each other, as I plan to actually do this bash once I get everything figured out. I'm just doing a digibash of my ideas for now.
It's late... Anyway, I don't have a version of that mold, but I've seen it enough times... I think the treads are alright in terms of size, BUT they're fairly wide and not hollow... I think landmine/quakes would be more friendly to taking arms, too... They're hollow enough to hold part of the 'body' and can still have enough stability to hold arms...
Ok, cool. I'll look into it more later. For now, I'm going to be working on an idea that I got for the legs.
Ok, here's an ide that I had for the legs. I would do more to them when I actually do this, but, this digibash gets the basic idea across. I've probably scaled them down from what they would be in real life. I'm not sure, I've never seen an Energon Wing Saber in person, lol.
If you were to read one of my earlier posts (specificaly on the page you've posted on) you would see that I point this out myself. I used them as a stand in for the Landmine treads as I couldn't find a picture of them that would work for the digibash.
He corrected himself later on, if you read it. I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say the legs are too large. They should be about the size of one of E. Prime's droids (I've never seen it, either) because of what they do... So *grabs tape measure and runs off* EDIT: I'm back. Barricade's upper leg is roughly half the length of the Wing Saber leg. (I used Prime's droid in leg form) So you were correct. It is too small.
Yep. (at least with Prime's leg droid...) Why is it I have a feeling we'll have a lot of fun trying to figure out the arms?
That's good news, cause they look almost perfect the way they are in that pc. As for the arms, like I've said before, I've pretty much got them already figured out.
Although I'm very interested in seeing how this KB works out, I have always been perfectly fine with the Energon Omega Supreme and this is coming from a guy that actually owned the G1 Omega as a kid. Plus I'm a sucker for the old Headmasters gimmick, so Energon Omega is tops to me.
Eh, to each their own. This is one case where I actually prefer the G1 look, lol. I thought about incorperating the Energon's headmaster gimmic, but, I've decided that I'll go to Sculpt-bot for a custom head instead.
Yeah the Energon Omega head is an excellent G1 cartoon nod, thats one of the reasons I like Energon Omega so much. It's funny, I actually used to feel the same way as you about it, I really didn't think I would like Energon Omega at all when I bought him but now he is one of my favorites. He really grew on me.
