One of our earliest models was the Teletraan-1 computer terminal which featured prominently in the Autobot's Ark during their journey off Cybertron. And even during their adventures in their HQ while stalwartly defending Earth. But for the longest time, we didn't have one for the Decepticon. So here's the remedy for that! Presenting the Decepticon Terminal as seen in the good 'ol Generation One animation. The 3d printable files have been released publicly for free here - https://www.patreon.com/posts/34440131 === Here's how it scales with Siege Megatron. A little short for him, but I'm sure he's not the one doing the grunt work on the terminal. Or at least it would be voice activated or something. Here's some of the G1 bunch of Decepticons hanging out around the Terminal. Was trying to do the scene with Megatron staring off into the distance and Starscream wondering what he was looking at ... Now that the terminal has crunched the necessary battle data - it's time to attack! == Here's how a render of the piece looks like and how it assembles together from its separate parts: Partly, the front 2 display panels have been designed both to print more easily, and also to be able to hide a good portion of the parting lines between the main body. As a bonus, you can switch and mix them up as you like too! Here's how it compares to the earlier Teletraan-1 for the Autobots (available here - Transformers Generation 1 - Autobot Ark Teletraan-1 by FunbieStudios) === Hope y'all have fun with getting this one 3d printed up and used in your displays ! =)
Oh yes, took quite a while to great printed too! However, got something else which is gonna be even larger though Thank ya all! It does feel like it needs more addons though ... Hmmm ...
Great work. Thanks for sharing your STL printing files. I will give it a try with my Creality Ender. Do you have any suggestions about the printing settings? Thanks, Michael
Hmmm, standard settings for your printer should work - maybe at a layer height of around 0.2 - 0.25mm? Also forgot to update that there are some addons for this of a Prime Master Station and a Radar Scanner too, available via Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/posts/35475404 Happy 3d printing!
Did up a radar dish as a logical next add on to the array of nefarious gadgets the Decepticons should have in their base! The dish is mounted on a swivel and rotates be able to face straight ahead, upwards to any angle between. And with this handy little plug, it can connect to ... ... the scanner terminal from before! Now this is the perfect setup for the cons to look for the next source of energon to plunder!
