hey actually the jolt's head is very accurated except for the "horn" in his head, but it is secured with a screw so if we take it appart, and change the "horn" piece he would be more screen accurate

I'm not after accuracy, just a fitting sculpt for a carbon fibre/powder blue, barrel chested, clawed arm, hood feet and kibble-winged bot.

eeeyup.


ROTF jolt is my jolt, I'm asking for a classics style, carbon fibre textured head for DOTM "volt" so maybe I don't hack the head's chin and central spike off/down if I get him.

Thread updated! I've received my sample of ROTF voyager Starscream hands and it turned out better than expected! Details in the first post.

In response to another request, I present the weapon set for DOTM deluxe Starscream! I was agonizing in my head for a couple of days thinking of a satisfying, involving way of portraying Starscream's weapons in bot mode, yet a tidy way of keeping them in jet mode.



Weapons for jet mode with jet boosters.



Assembled missile launcher for bot mode.

I hit upon the idea of having his missile launcher split into 2 main halves to form his rear jets in bot mode. These boosters can also be mounted under his wings for a totally vicious appearance, and the extra missiles and gatling gun can be kept in the other 5mm hardpoints.

I'll be ordering a sample soon, but I'm pretty confident of this set's performance, so I'm releasing it to the public.

What do you guys think?

You can order a set here.

Collection Count: This really depends on how you count combiners.
When your DOTM Starscream stuff arrives, will you have pictures of him with your Shapeways add-ons? If possible, please do!

Man, upon a second and more careful examination of your 3D render designs, I'm just blown away by how everything fits and combines together in either bot mode or alt mode, with no leftover parts to leave on the table! I never would have came up with the idea of having the thrusters become transforming parts themselves for the null ray cannon! You, sir, are a genius!

Very very impressive how the two halves split into his back thrusters in bot mode (or jet mode) but yet combine together to form his null ray cannon as seen in the movies! TakTom and Hasbro can definitely take lessons from you designing their Screamer figures!

Thinking upon this, I think I'll have to pick up two sets of these badass add-ons; one for the null ray cannon and one set just for his back thrusters! They're that wonderfully designed and cool looking! I really do hope these become available in more colors on Shapeways too, such as a gray since that will save me a bit of time painting them up; but the blades and missiles definitely deserve a bit of paint apps to bring out the awesome details!

I may also pick up singular sets (in blue and black, respectively) for Thundercracker and Skywarp just for the boosters as well, but keep their stock mechtech weapons as their main armaments to differentiate them a bit from Starscream.

Thanks again, fakebusker, you rock!
