    How it works is once Starstriker is ready he uploads the files to Shapeways and makes them available to the public, similar to uploading a video to YouTube. Everyone then has the opportunity to order these designs from Shapeways in a variety of materials chosen by the buyer. Just go to Shapeways and browse what's there. It's just like any other store with the exception that the products are designed and uploaded by anyone.

    Ok sorry for the delay. Shapeways is not known for being speedy with production.

    I have the prototypes in hand and here are some pictures. We have tweaked the files a bit for the Galvatron ship as you will see the pointy bits are too thin.

    But they fit great!!!

    Wow totally cool and unexpected! Do you think you could model some more movie accurate chest plates? Those make this Unicron mold seem off compared to G1. I think just fixing his chest would prove to have amazing results

    Sorry but something so large would probably be more expensive than Unicron itself.
