    3d printed Dia naughtsTransformer themed vehicles each Vehicles built with over 10 pieces each with opening hatches and enough room for one to two dia naughts

    Ironhide came out a little too big but he holds two figures and two motorcycles he has one feature a pull out ramp to unload the bikes

    All four vehicles require assembly and glue but all of them have free Rolling Wheels

    I wish unfortunately no. there pretty small and incorporating the diaclones mini figure negates there ability to transform (plus ive had no luck with ball joints)

    Some 3rd Party company needs to jump on making new versions of the OG Diaclone vehicles that went on to form much of the G1 cartoon's 1st season cast.

    I don't recommend googling naughtsTransformer, first off.

    Did you design these yourself, phoenixliger? They look wonderful. Are you open sourcing the designs, or selling?

    I might be able to help with transformation, though . . . I've been experimenting with joints and recommend printing them vertical, as separate pieces.

    Yes these where designed and built by me. i will open source some of the designs on thingieverse, im hoping to do a few conventions next year and hopefully sell some there

    Thank you i appreciate that

    let me know and try to put it up on thingieverse

    thank you Ive had some success with ball joint but mostly with large figures i mostly print ball joints horizontal because they often break along the ribbons when i print vertical when i do make some actual transforming figures they may possibly be a little larger

    Really neat design work. From the thread thumbnail I was expecting something that involved the Autobots encounter with Trypticon in the War Within: Dark Ages comics, but this is a welcome surprise. I especially like that Ironhide was designed with a vehicle storage feature.

    I recommend 5mm joints, but 6mm is probably best. I can probably whip up a mockup of the transformation sometime this weekend...

    I just mocked up this Optimus yesterday It should be able to fully transform while scaling and holding two Diaclones

    i have some ideas for fem bots that ive been working on but stopped after a few setback

    also here a preview of my next diaclone vehicle (no transformation)

    sorry about the crappy pics i couldnt get the screen cap to work
