Very techy indeed
-
Hmm.. I hope Toynami do everything to help the problem. That's the least owners expect from them to do so. Otherwise this product should be reported to the consumer bonds.
-
thnx... but still I have to finish this. As for the fins, it is possible to get them together. I'll do it on the next one I was considering to make the body a bit taller.. since the legs are getting too close to the shoulder/intale and there is plenty of space left on the canopy/head to do so (correction... not "tail")
-
Update: Beta test is finished... all joints hasbeen tested. I got a a few points where I have to improve but that's a very small problem. Cockpit wont fit in the body cause the canopy is blocked by a crossbar for the joints. A different joint technique will fix the problem. As for the rest.. everything works OK. It's a bit floppy but it's due because of weakpaper, small scale and lots of testing. Next step/test is to build it in larger scale and use higher quality thick paper. (with the head and radar unit ofcourse) As you can see on the pick i've removed the cockpit to show you how it's gonna be in soldier mode. Unfortunately i forgot to take pictures in armo diver mode lol before removing it. What happend to be a lucky find is that the wing volds and closes very beautiful and tight betweeen the body and the shoulder/intake part... that's very cool@! The arms has been tighten by an elastic string running from shoulder/intake to the arm. It fits very nice! 2004 btw...

lol they expect people to pay for a few lego bricks?
-
Man I really wonder how many NON macrossworld members bought a Legioss with problems. Since it's horrific to see so many members having problems with it.

Here's a suggesting pic in soldier mode:

lol i don't want to be worshipped... update: The arm works OK. Still a larger scale would be easier to put together though cause the papergets thick. The tailfin is actually consealed in the a hollow compartement in the arm in stead of retracting sideways which forces the tailfin to be small. In fightermode the compartement will be used for the fist. By folding about 4 times you can just get to fit it. Tailfin itself is not folded so it stays nice intact. It is stored diagonal in lenght. Anyway, I'm figuring out how to connect it to the body.
-
Ow... please I'm blushing like a tomato... I have alot of work to do so.. let'swait tilllit is finished.. then well see if it isgood or not. Anyway, next to my job I'll try to make some spare time to build it. This time the arms are challenging.. plus the fact I'm having trouble with my 3d model to get the right output... some outputs get wrong. But it's a matter of time to get it right.
-
lol that's strange
-
Stick is also lucky not to be ripped by inbids.
-
If I only had a little CNC machine I'll personally teach Toynami a lesson...
-
In the Japanese version they mention about inbid messing with the atmosphere. But like you people said.. combo of damage and speed

Yes I would say it is a keeper for me. Got mines today. Minor paint issues. Nice tight joints. The hands are awesome. Unable to get one wing to lock onto cotpit in battloid mode. I face my gun the opposite way so I do not have to remove the clip. This is much better than the VF-1 MPC. Only two design flaws: (1) Landing gear to short which makes chest drag (2) Arm missiles only show half way. Engineering should have caught those. a dragging chestplate... man I think the whole part of the body is completely wrong. Shouldn't the chestplate be detractable and level up with the lower part (his X) Sorry to whine so much but: the one who is responsible for the model sure did his job without enough love.
-
that is possible... thank god only the head is different. according to this pic the wingsare anhedral.
-
Well atthe end this is all free. The only problem is to make a manual... which is very time consuming. Update: Wings are foldable en uses pegs to get it straight and tighten in fightermode. I forgot to make a flap (see orange marking) which should hold and tighten the lot in soldier mode by inserting the flap between the bodypart and cockpit. The wing is cut out rough and I didn't glued it on the body in case of any problems with the joint of the arm. But anyway when I hold down my fingers on it, the whole wing is likely to be solide as a rock. It may seem that the wing bends a littleseen from the frontview but thats corresponding to the sketches.

Woohoo! Soon we will get transformable alpha and valks! press the red button for battroid mode -
that one is finished... but it's only fightermode. I'm building a real transformable model with propiate manual in the future. another update: this time i use metal wire to twist and tighten the upper bodypart. Since the upper part only rotates.. it doesn't need to be elastic. The model itself is a little smaller than the 1/35 and difficult to work with but > with a larger scale even my 7 year old nephew can build it. this time i use white.. since i dont want to run out of black ink.. (notice i've just scratched something that should be an intake.. blehh )
-
Another update. I use a common rubber band to use it as a connection to the body. I made thin cuts on the upperleg for fighter and soldier mode. Put something inthe leg to hold the rubber band, put a paper cylinder in the body where the elastic band goes through the centre of it.. tighten up the lot. It works great! Oh I forgot 1 thing... the body plate chest is retracktable!
-
Now with upperleg... very solid joint construction in all modes. I've use paper that bends in/outwards for retracting. Kneecap is movable and tight with use of pegs. Upperleg retract deep inside just like the sketches. length of the whole leg is correct.! Eureka!
-
Oh please don't misunderstand... I'm not asking why you are doing this... I'm just expressing my astonishment in your abilities to put this thing together in paper AND make it transform... simply incredible. ow hehe... blush blush* I used to get A's for craftwork at highschool.
-
The reason I do this is because I recently became a hardcore Mospeada fan and reason 2: I'm fustrated why toy designers are so inaccurate!
-
Here's a nice update: I've builded 1 lower leg for transformation testing and it succesfully passed the test! As you can see, the heel doesn't retract... but thats not a big problem The dotted lines seems to be good for cosmetic purpose... it looks like nails. (Ahum... Toynami suck my paper lollypop)
-
Actually there is arm mechanics in the line art, and it was shown in at least one episode. hmm ill check it when im finished dl.. It seems to be the two shockabsorbers for thefrontwheel bike thatactually connected to the armshields right?
-
Yeah it was kind of strange with the girl... aka queen..hehe There was 1episode where they use the ride armor for moving rocks... which is kinda strange cause there are no mechanical joints for arms. They must have lot's of power like superman to move those rocks.
