The older generations toy is roughly to scale funnily enough (from memory its been a while since i looked at a scale chart)

 

He's definitely to scale with MMCs DJD as he fits in Kaon's electric chair alt-mode  

 

Man, every time I think that I'm done adding custom parts to Overlord, something new and awesome like this comes around.

 

Awesome work!! Will you had that tiny repair arm and cannons on the calves too?

 

What tiny arm and cannon? Seriously, folks keep dropping these recommendations and I have no idea where they're pulling them from since I've only seen bits and pieces of Masterforce. Lol
I'm really just doing my own thing with these designs. Not really interested in "accuracy" or what not. In my world, missiles > cannons. =)

 

Man!!

@ultraman zoffy -- these upgrades are marvelous. I don't know what I might have to do to get a set, but I'm game to find out!

And I tell ya, if you can somehow engineer something that allows BlackShadow's lower half to stay connected and integrated with the upper half's jet mode, I might just faint. Or name my firstborn child after you. Or both!

 

Loved that lucky draw.

 

Hi, it was from the g1 toy and some episodio of Masterforce

 

Ohh, base modes... I'm not into base modes at all.

 

Before turkey

 

Okay, the fate of this design is now in the hands of the fans:

Transformers Overlord Mold Super Parts STL FILES by UltraZof Toy Studio — Kickstarter

 

that's an interesting way to handle it.

 

Only way I can think of that is fair to the designer and puts it all on the community to make happen if they really want something. I can't speak for other designers/customizers out there, but I for one think us creators deserve something for applying the skills and knowledge we've worked hard to obtain for ourselves.

 

Very cool with these designs. Do you have any other designs?

 

A ton. =) Poke around the Radicons area and look for my stuff.

 

Really wish I'd have came across this sooner. I just finished my Overlord/Six Shot/Sky Shadow trio not to long ago. If I went with MT SW now, it'd throw the design continuity off between them. But that's a great fig and version of him.

I'm surprised you didn't just kickstart it straight to print if you meet your goal. Figure out the collected costs of material, shipping and your time + desired profit per set × (projected number of sets for a limited run) and make that your goal. That way, you still get to profit, your fans get what they want and you get to keep your IP since you're not putting the files out into the open. It's easier to protect your design when you have a physical run of your work and as the initiator, you're recognized as the guy who made it even if someone bootlegs it.

I'm just saying, if 3P companies (and apparently Hasbro now) can crowdsource and make bank, no reason why you can't either.

 

I don't have the time to print a ton of copies of my designs due to my actual job and other obligations. The logistics involved are too much of a nightmare.

 

Ah, gotcha.  

 

I can't print these, but backed anyway as a show of support

 

That's awesome, thank you, and all the folks who have been asking me for access to these parts owe you a thanks as well. =)
