    UPDATE4:
    Finally getting somewhere started with a Trypticon finger mod!
    Then started mocking-up a little and I now know for sure this is gonna be real though, guess I'm gonna focus on the RC-dino + autopilot mode :)

    Dunno good chance it'll be fearsome-dino-mode VS heavy-battle-mode

    heheh :p  thnx

    affirmative :D  yeah LOLA allways plays that & hide-n-sike + wreck'n mode!

    Well I hope so but to be honest, that's gonna be tough as nails...
    check the most recently added PIC this is the first time I kinda stripped it down this far, but this way I can test some thing out the easy way.. if it still gonna look like the mockup? who knows ;)  thnx

    This could be a crown jewel in your collection!! It looks really cool so far! How will you do the transformation to base and back??

    yeah me 2 :p  when's your project starting? ;)  cya!

    UPDATE6:
    Well I do hope so but transformation is gonna be simple, there are just to many tiny wires,
    if for some reason I succeeded in completly ruining the electric RC functions.. I might scrap the RC part and go all out on TF'ing :) 
    Thus far progress is slowly taking shape...
    not sure on the gun extensions, but they're friction fitted!
    my back is killing me again, gonna take it little slower

    UPDATE7:
    Well today I managed to get the back section brutally slashed and bolted on :D  then started doing some work on the head...
    So I guess the basics of the neck / arms / upper-legs / head / back are done or roughly in fase2, now it will take a pretty long time until I can start on the tail and feet, since that involves putting back all the electronics and try-out then first test-run since the kitbashing started *hope I didn't screw up*
    Hey look on the bright side if I really do screw up big time I can finally get this this standing more upwards. (cuz the qyro/electronics/ecu calculations only let this thing walk in default config)

    Yeah can't wait myself 2... I'll promise to do my best :p  hehe thnx!

    Yeah GDDMN expensive these guys :( 
    but I will receive a cast of the face and will prolly make a scratch Cerebros

    UPDATE9:
    YES Peepz... I think I'll manage to test fit the electronic when I wake up :)  but 1thing will remain questioned since I don't no the voltage that runs through the legs, my amp-meter is defective and I want the orange circle the light up on action + Light up eyes when it makes all the sounds..
    Almost forgot obviously I articulated the elows / fingers (+added articulated extra fingers/nails) / added claws (yes I know there should be a 3rd one in the front and not 2 in the back, but there's no way around this if I want the RC controlls to work propperly) hopefully I'll even find suitable blaster/laser & whatever sounds!

    PS: If I do destroy the electrics + RC function somehow,
    I'll go all out and even articulate the knee's & make a great transformation!

    UPDATE10:
    Ok now the head looks like a snake, but I had to do this first otherwise I couldn't put togehter and test the RC functions :(  O well then hopefully tomorow and when it does work, well I might reshape the head a little :) 


    Only problem is the Headblaster I made... can't pain't it otherwise it will get stuck...
    it's allready thigh as hell Grrrrr... might try and sand a little, wish me luck!

    wow. killer talons.
    maybe the head is too streamlined if they think it looks like a snake/viper.
    it's based oon a raptor afterall.
    how about some angular putty on the snout to make it more t-rex/allosaurus like.
    i just goggled and allosaurus has eyeshades too.

    goggled ;)  *ok I know what you meant LOL*
    yeah I have some styrene and Trypticon left-overs...
    So hopefully I can fix it when I wake up :p  thnx!

    UPDATE11:
    WOW 1whole f*ckin' day woring on these blasters....
    hollowing out the default tripticon thimgs and fitting the leds...
    real carefully drilling from both side starting with 0.5mm to 4.5mm
    AND THEN I FUCKED UP!!!!!!!!!!
    I though it would be cool to fill it with hotglue so it would guide the light and refraction it to the side vent which I also carved out :(  *what a bl00dy work*
    ... now a you can see the light stay at the start !!!
    *will drill a small tunnel towards the light from the gun tip, hope it helps :D *
