Renderform have unveiled another two projects tonight. The first one is Death Czar, an alternate head for Predacons Rising Darksteel to convert him into the big bad of Transformers Victory, Deathsaurus! This new set includes a new head and also a new weapon which is modeled on Deathsaurus’ weapon from Transformers Victory. It’s a limited run of 250 pieces, and complements the recent Reprolabels Darksteel to Deathsaurus sticker set rather nicely.
A second set, named “Crimson Faust”, is also being produced. This set is a red version of the Death Czar and is colored to go with Transformers Go Budora, to convert him into a homage of Deathsaurus’ Brave series redeco, Red Geist – which you may also know as Shattered Glass Deathsaurus.
Check out Renderform’s page for both kits for more information.

For anyone that wants a cheaper option than the currently non existent 3rd party figure, it's under $10 for regular shapeways plastic, under $15 for frosted ultra detail. Not my model, but in my opinion it looks good

$100+ for a Voyager size or bigger, and really nails the look of the character is fine with me. Hasbro has their large bad guy plate full for the year it seems with Sixshot and Overlord as Leaders and Octane, Megatron and Blitzwing for Voyagers. They're not going to be doing him any time soon.

Maybe $20 total or at least $100 plus time spent waiting. Some people don't want to spend that much money.

Seriously, just wait for a full 3p figure. It's bound to happen.
Fenrys
There's one on shapeways if all else fails

MTMTE has me in the mood. Don't suppose anyone has a kit, or even just a head, out there that they'd want to part with?
Slimaximus
Yeah it should be no problem, I just didn't want to try it on the one and only head I have lol. Luckily I never transform him
ckhtiger
Thanks, I appreciate it! The kit and figure look great!
Venksta
There may be a way, if you drill/cut out the back of the head, to allow the head to rotate and look "up". I can try it out on one of the left over dud heads, and see if it works.
Send me a PM, and I'll see what I can do.

I think they're long gone unfortunately
greboguru
Hmmmm! Any chance of getting myself a Darksteel-to-Deathsaurus set? Or are they all long gone?
ckhtiger
Just wanted to ask one last time, did anyone ever figure out how to modify this kit to get it to transform all the way?
Lion
Not sure. Think the post is just to long. I had to add super glue to mine to get the ball joint built up. But this is such a cool looking bot now. Got an extra gun with mine
Also- 235/250

Did anyone ever figure out what needs to be trimmed to get the head to fully close up in beast mode?
NothingHead
Just wish I could have gotten that sticker sheet. This guy is bland, bland, bland.

Aaaand… got my upgrade yesterday! This dude is wicked sexy… This IS Deathsaurus, the head fits the mold perfectly. Many thanks for the extra swords!
Lion
Sorry to zombie a thread, but how long from payment to receiving the kit does it usually take?

here's a few pics.
already posted awhile back on my facebook.

that sucks. didn't even know what my number was. I tossed the packaging right after taking out the stuff from the bag.
Honestly didn't pay attention to see that it was numbered.
oh, well.

Love this set! Still a WIP for alt mode, also needs some paint & dremel work on the breast master parts but this is my overall Deathsaurus custom so far. The Renderform head sculpt really steals the show, & the light piped eyes glow better than any Hasbro figure I've ever owned! The guns work wonderfully with the mace style arms micron, and the extra swords have a wow factor as well! I'm so very pleased with my Deathsaurus & Darkwing kits! Thanks again Azim!
