Hey guys. Here is my last update on this project, before Corbot V, the group making this, will start putting up the updates. Below is a test casting of the axe, with orange translucent blades, and a gray color for the base. For the gray parts, the plan is to match it to the silver/gray plastic on WFC Prime. Feel free to give your thoughts on what color you want to see for it. The blades will be translucent orange. Everyone wants to see them painted up like in the trailer. This is being planned, but will be determined by how much it will increase the cost of the final product.
This is awsome! Im trying to mimic it, to some degree but if you do massproduce this, mine is just a place holder for your greatness.
Holy crap Ven, that looks amazing!! Not that I've come to expect anything less from you after all these things. As for colours here's my thoughts: For the handle, if you keep it simple with a single colour then I would suggest using either the grey on Prime or black. For the blade - I would love to see it in Red or Purple as well... One suggestion may be for them to offer an unpainted version of the axe handle and clear blades so people can paint them however they wish using clear colours on the blade...
OH SHIT!! That thing is AWESOME!!!! Can I have one.. I mean, just have one.. please?? lol, how much are these going to run venksta??
If it came with a game accurate ion cannon (I've been thinking of something that pegs into the folded down fist), I'd surely buy. Hell, I want to get one anyway.
That Axe and Hammer designs are looking great! Pardon me if I missed it while scrolling through posts, but are there plans to design a game accurate one, with the double sided blades besides the trailer version of Prime's axe?
Thanks! Thanks dude! Not sure how "unpainted" version of the axe would be with stores, as they need to sell it. But if people want different colored versions, I know the group is up for it. I dunno the final price. That is up to the stores selling them. But the group plans for the final price to be well below $25. The axe is going to be released separately, to keep the price down for everyone. I've talked about doing a set of weapons with the ion blaster, in game axe, and a third original weapon, that would work with the others. We'll see if I get commissioned for them or not.. There is talk about a in game axe. Nothing set yet. If I don't get commissioned to make one, I'll do my own.
Venksta, When you start makeing the designs for Megatrons upgrade weapons and stuff can you design a G1 Megatron head to go with the upgrade set. I think everyone would love to have him with him his G1 look instead of that game/movie look.
To be honest, I'm happy with the WFC Megatron head. I feel it fits the body. I've had talks about more. Nothing new has been commissioned yet. I think the group is still working on the details on this project first. Hopefully I don't get into too much trouble for showing this. Just a hand painted sample of the blades. The translucent blades doesn't work well with the details, as you can see the ones on the opposite side. I'm thinking the blades might have to be made in an opaque bright orange color, if they get painted. .
Well id love to see a more g1 look for him. I may have to work on this one my self then. Sweeeeet! Love it give us more....
