    I appreciate that you dig the design. Regarding comments on other people's work, it's not the liking or disliking of the work itself that bothers me, it's all about whether the comment is tactful and constructive or not. If it isn't, then it's not helpful for anyone, particularly the customizer.

    No, nothing invasive at all. There's a slot for the original waist mushroom peg to slot into on the hip/pelvis piece, and a new mushroom peg on top of that piece that goes into the upper body. 2 pins need to be popped out of the upper body to install the new hip/pelvis section though, but it's really easy to do.

    I was originally into the look of that Beelzeboss kit when the first images of it dropped, but went with the SND instead.

    Let us know if you make it available, would it be better if you sell it alas Shockwave lab (painted and with better finishing than what Shapeways offers)

    I'm not setup to do that. I have a small home studio, and Shockwave Lab has a factory where they steal design concepts from customizers and can make and sell them for cheaper, cause China. Lol

    Except he does? You basically gave him two waist areas. Another botched proportioned figure.

    Its CW Battlecore Prime with Toyhax and Renderform kit turning him into Thunder Clash. Like I said I have some parts to get from Shapeways to finish him up.

    I went with both. Not pictured is my original CW BC Prime with the SND.

    Zoffy, you are a genius, I’m ordering these for my Thunderclash effort. If you have the time, I wouldn’t mind help with your modeling skills in regards to some weapons.

    I hadnt seen this thread until now. Pretty cool mods. I didnt really like CW Prime because of the EuroTruck mode, but some of the features were pretty cool. This upgrade kit does a good job bulking up the robot mode. Just a suggestion, do you think you would be able to change the folding parts on the back of the cab to look more squared up?

    This is an old design that's been archived already and won't be getting any updates any time soon, mostly because I don't do CHUG stuff anymore.

    I've been examining all my options for the best possible Thunderclash, and my friend, you've convinced me.

    I quite like this. Great job Zoffy. For me, your parts for this Optimus is a must add on.

    I would like to find out if there is any way to obtain this whole kit,
    or if there is a 3D print file I could get/purchase for all of the pieces.

    If this is possible, please let me know. I would appreciate it.

    Thank you for the interest in this design! It is actually super old, from my early days learning the basics of 3D modeling, and I've been wanting to evolve/update it at some point. Keep an eye out, as it could end up on my Kickstarter page as a file release campaign in the future if I ever get around to revising the design (and if the interest is there within the community).

    Thank you too. I (like others) have been keeping an eye out for some time.

    (My point of interest is mainly the waist piece, feet, and leg attachments.)

    Excellent skills, designing, and hard work should never be overlooked. Keep up the great work.

    I can assure you, especially based on this thread, the proof of needed interest exists, and has definitely been in the community already,
    hence some of us are coming back to this thread (to view or comment) with strong interest in upgrading our Primes.

    Noteworthy to keep in mind: interest is not only in the form of comments. It comes in views as well. (over 3,400 views to date)
    Many people, like myself, typically come to view a thread for updates on availability
    When there is no availability, most people move on without leaving a comment.

    Even if the parts came only from you (even possibly making the parts from molds for example),
    I would gladly purchase from you directly if it were possible, that's if you made them in your free time.

    As noted before, like many others, I have been waiting on availability for quite some time.
    *That said, your free time is valuable and we're not rushing you.

    We are eagerly ready and standing by. :)

    Why have you deleted the foot and abdominal upgrades from your account?

    I tried to buy them today and they're missing.
