CDMW-14K - The King's Power Parts

nooooo where are the legs extensions ?

I probly will get this 1 since I didn't get 1 of the others yet. I just wonder if it will work without the new hands since I don't have those and only have the orginal 1's that he came with.

The sword will work with the original Predaking fist. The handle of the sword, where the plastic gem is stuck in the picture, comes from another set, meant for use with the CD hands.

No, Crazy Devy.
I already bought the first big dumb sword you released for Predaking.
Give me leg extensions, or go away.

yeah what you said. Except i didnt buy the 1st sword, just everything else and Im tired of waiting for leg extensions... in fact Im starting to think of just selling all my crazy devy stuff and moving on.

funny how they have 3 versions of the swords yet didn't do the other parts yet.

I like the chrome sword, but I already have CD's first sword (which is a bigger version of the G1 sword) and I much rather have the leg extension at this point.

Looks pretty... but I already have the first version. Dang.

Ive boycotted crazydevy since the last PK upgrade... I think it was the mane... I have every single PK upgrade and Im not buying any more until i get the leg extensions

Would have been awesome if I didn't already she'll out the money for the first sword. I'm starting to feel abused by Crazy Devy here folks. I wonder how much money they suckered me in to spending at this point? Not this time, I won't buy this sword, as cool as it looks. The bleeding from my wallet has to stop!

Oh look at that. CrazyDevy is still in business.

With so many other companies making better TF stuff... sooner or later I feel like we are going to have the option of a really nice Predaking from someone instead of getting this overpriced stuff from CD randomly.

Also they made a few predaking parts really quickly but its been a few months since we get anything for Predaking, and its really annoying to me.

I'm also now in the position of thinking about selling my Predaking and CD parts cause I'm giving up hope on the leg extensions. Plus, as mjordan23 just said, it seems like only a matter of time until TFC or someone does a Predaking.

Fuck CrazyDevy.

Hey guys....totally share your frustration. The best thing CD has done yet was legs/thighs for Devastator, so I figured they would revisit that formula for Predaking and I bought into each accessory...and waited...and waited...WTF???...well I got VERY sick of waiting.

I DID MY OWN!

The project ballooned from the original scope but here's a quick rundown...more details available if you're interested...

_______________

Here's my original concepts and ideas:



Then I made some CAD and uploaded to Shapeways:



Note how I've pitched his weight forward (about 1/2 inch, indicated by green lines):



The legs swivel so Predaking's toes can point outwards:



After some mockups and sketches, we decided to design a waist extension too--I think his proportions really needed it:





And of course with Razorclaw's arms now looking even stubbier, I decided to make even more extensions...in this case for his arms...





Okay, here are some pictures of my first build. Some tweaks are still needed, but it gives you the idea of the results that leg extensions give. Predaking NEEDS THESE BIG TIME!!!

Pics of the parts:



Razorclaw with waist extension:



With full wings and all CD parts:


With painted parts and arm extensions:




Even Hercules looks up to this badass!

^^^ Holy shit thats epic!! I want leg and waist extensions where do i buy???? Nao!!!!

Now that's how Predaking was meant to be! If only those mods could be mass produced...

They can on shapeways please echo let us buy these and screw crazydevy

^ This. Well said.

I would like to get these too. You should mass produce them and sell them. Just let me know when I can buy them. Please!!!

waist and leg extensions ...

Damn, that last pic is awsome... Yes, you should release these upgrades for purchase...

Amazing man! that looks really cool!

If i might suggest another upgrade for your pieces... you could model a replacement palm for the CD hands... with a better thumb because that tiny balljoint is extremely fragile

My thumbs broke on my CD hands. Garbage product.

Damn those extensions look good. Please don't come out with them, because then I would have to buy the current CD stuff.

Hey guys,

Wow, glad people like the extensions...makes it worth investing the time in a version with updates in which I can make them for sale. I'll open a new thread in customs and create a link here for those that are interested!

Cheers,

Steve

hell yes, I would buy those

I often wonder how Transformers fans exist, it always seems like nothing can please them...



I've only got the CD wings set & the giant sword, but I LOVE THEM DAMN IT!

Sure they're overpriced, but I think they're worth it. They're definite improvements to Predaking.

Your upgrades are great, but I'd like to make a few suggestions:

(1) Is there any way that you could alter the midsection piece so that it's removable? Razorclaw's robot mode looks too...long. Even with the arm extensions.

Maybe have it convert into a weapon of some kind, like Tantrum & Headstrongs cannons/feet?

(2) Would it be possible to make a longer forearm for Razorclaw that slides into the arm?

If/when these ever become available, I'll definitely get a set or two.
