Just tried making hoofs for the various Micronauts horses. I need black ones for Lantaurion and Pegasus.
makes me wonder if it was possible for Hasbro to import and dub the Microman anime for western audiences?
I know Baron Karza and similar figures are remolds/recolors of a guy named Steel Jeeg. I did not realize how much they blunted his large missiles. The were pointy compared to the Micronauts ones.
Here is a fun experiment. I am not only converting an Acroyear into CAD files one piece at a time, but I am upsizing it to Baron Karza size, while maintaining 5mm pegs and holes.
I got my prototype prints in for Microtron treads. The rubber treads are not bad. I need to shave a tiny bit off them in the next print to make them tighter.
Tried upsizing a mix of parts I had laying about to make a 6+ inch tall figure looking somewhat like Acroyear and made with 5mm pegs pieces.
It's a slow time for TF Preorders so I've been picking off the odd MicroGuy from my list. Had this the first time around but the knee-joints crumbled so I've finally picked another up and.....so far so good.
Just picked up the Cosmic Spider-Man with the alternate head as Ray Coffin. He scales great with Baron Karza! Definitely get this guy.
I am having some luck making rubber tires and treads for my Micronauts vehicles. The front tires and the treads are all printed here.
