Ehm... ok that is a lot of information.. Great you can do that trough and that you are so creative!
I personally would not like an (more fragile and complex) Bumblebee.. that said, I do love La Hire so much that I actually am trying to fit Peru Kill into a smaller Lamborghini..But maybe another figure would be better in MPM, Twins,Jolt (scan and oversize the old deluxes with some alterations) SS arcee triplets in mpm scale.. so manny ideas, but all that should be a different tread imho..
When it comes to Black Apple Prime, here are my ideas/questions
- do you think it would be possible to make the altered hinges for the tanks (make them move more inward under the cab)
- do you have ideas for the rear fenders? to make them go in 6mm more each if in truckmode if I could alter the rear wheels ( I have several options on that but they could be added if you would make a kit)
What are your ideas on the head? I think if it splits in two (behind the antena's maybe) it could fit in the curent space but still be bigger...

 

Actually my translator cannot translate some of the details exactly, but I seem to get the idea. As you know, I received the toy a few days ago and did not have enough time to study its design. It was in this prime that I only looked at the head, the mirrors and the rear wing transformation design (to get closer to the movie-like back, these red flat details under the tanks). I didn't study anything, and neither did the wheels. if we compare a toy with a 3D model from a movie, it has rather distorted proportions, bulging chest, large doors on the chest, a large belly, and just a huge backpack compared to the render. in this case, I doubt whether it is worth changing something small if, in general, her silhouette does not change? I will mark your message and hopefully understand what it is about when I study it in more detail. and I will write you an answer. I think I'm going to make a megatron head now, it is work in progress. well, no one today did head of megatron movie-accurate with inner detail. absolutely nobody and on any figure.

 

I think that making his antenna rotate would be a huge start.

 

The space constraint is mostly in the width. It's a relatively easy fix, just make it flatten like this

(section cut view from top)

 

oh yes! that would be a great start

this looks nice, is that for the tanks or the fenders?

I forget the language barrier sometimes ( I am Dutch so it should be obvious, sorry)

With the pic above I show what I mean, the chrome tanks stick out, they should be under the sleepercab
if you do not install the guns there, the spot has more than enough room to make that happen.

The the rear fenders stick out to much as well, this could be solved with changing the grey hinge where they are located now.
That basicly is all I would change on Prime (sidemirrors would be great to if I am nitpicky)

His robotmode is great, the truck could be better imho
I hope this helps explain what I mean

 

Just to mention, I think a UT Dragoon upgrade head could sell well... c:

 

I have a lot of ideas for that too hehe.

 

shoooooot...a CHEAP 3d scanner is around 300 usd...a BETTER scanner is in the 700+ range? Subscribe and like my currently 1 and only TF vid and I'll buy a $700+ scanner and make a scan for everyone.  

 

Jetwing is DOTM. This is Jet Armor if not mistaken. According to IW, the new armor 2.0 is compatible with BMB LS03

 

hi friends anyone know where i can get an OP thunder leader? someone who wants to sell yours ??? thanks

 

Do you mean that version 2.0 of the Iron Warrior kit is compatible with LT and BmB ??? can you explain that or put where they say that? thanks

 

Lol get in line

 

For the moment it's dead. Follow the thread for any news about another company deciding to reissue or KO it or WJ rising from the ashes somehow.

 

It was mentioned in their Weibo when the designer replying to the comment

 

Hello colleague. I wanted to answer you in the topic dedicated to the closure of the WJ factory, where we discussed this topic a lot, but we also clogged this branch. So I'll mention it here. Recently, I've been looking at a lot of reviews of new and old toys. I looked at various authors, but nowhere did I find their opinion about who makes LT toys. I repeat that I am sure that they, the reviewers, do not know exactly and only Express their opinions and impressions on a particular issue. Therefore, you should not accept everything as the truth. For example, He said it casually without paying attention to the words - and we all believed it. So, in the review of the LS02 BMB 2.5 years ago, BensKOllectables mentioned that it feels like the LS02 model is made in the same place and by the same manufacturer as the LT toys.

 

Unless you can break into the police evidence room or someone gets out of the transformer collector game all together, your only chance is paying over $400 on ebay.

 

I asked and someone told me that he had sold more than one on ebay for $ 400 but I think he has not sold any and is speculating with that price ... I have BmB LS03 and I can manage with that ... OP thunder leader is a whim. ... I do not pay more than 200 with shipping included and it already seems very very expensive ...

 

Yeah, I picked up the LS03F and I am happy with that

 

Well... shit.
