    Hiya everybody, I'm a new member here and this is my first piece of TF fanart I've ever done.

    I don't know if I'll be making more but please give your thoughts on this idea of mine :p  Combining a rubik's with the Allspark was the first obvious thing to do when I saw the Allspark in the movie :D

    Is that a digibash or real? I'd love that, I'm a Rubik's maniac

    umm what do you mean digibash? I took an image of the allspark and a rubik's cube, and then photoshopped them along with the first official TF 2007 wallpaper.
    But yeah, I think they should make a rubik's cube like that, it would be a hit :)

    Yeah that would be a digibash... kind of like a kitbash but only done digitally.

    I too would like a Rubik's Allspark, but instead of trying to match all the different colors you have to match/complete the different designs on each side in the actual Allspark colors.

    thats referred to as a digibash. you take 2 images and digitally alter them into something new. in essence "kitbashing" them. hence digibash!


    very cool nonje the less!

    Well, I don't know the proper term, if there is one, but I guess it is. If they made it into a product, the 6 center pieces would have to be symmetrical, because there are 4 ways to have 1 the center piece oriented. Of course, it could add a layer of challenge to the already hard puzzle. It's not hard to solve a cube, I memorized the 7 algorithms in 1 night

    thanks, I had lots of fun while making it. It was also a bit challenging as I don't own a rubik's cube so I couldn't take a picture of it to have it in the exact same angle and perspective as the Allspark picture, so I had to modify them both quite a bit :)

    I made a working Rubik's Cube out of paper... Maybe I could change the design to build another, Allspark one.

    Uhm, how do you expect me to answer that? I figure out what parts I need, I figure out how the parts would look like like when folded out, and I draw them, scan them, color them. Then print them out and fold and glue them together. Done.
    I have no problem with moving parts. Check the contest entries for this years BotCon. HoS Bumblebee transforms...

    digibash isn't a universal term, you won't hear it used outside of toy websites

    Not very long. I already knew the insides of a Rubik's Cube, I always took them apart when I was a kid. And because there's a lot of repetition in the parts, I only needed to draw a few and could do a lot of copying and pasting after scanning.

    So tell me, where did you see them?

    there, when I was trying to speed cube I came across that and fainted. I used to make things out of paper but they always came out lopsided cuz I didnt mesure anyhting or use straight edges so after seeing that I searched for paper transformers and well, I was amazed
