Jozaeh over in the Radicons forum has been making a totally kick ASS rendition of a Masterpiece Optimus out of the Legends version. He's even built a totally scratch made trailer to go with it

So inspired was I by this guy's work that I created a Legends scale Roller to go with his trailer. Roller measures about 30mm from front to back and is about 15mm tall with a 3mm port on the top that can fit cyberverse/kreon weapons or possibly a trailer hitch if you are so inclined. The model is for sale from my Shapeways store but is currently untested so the cost is discounted till I get a prototype in hand or it's tested by someone else.

showing how the wheels plug in:


I'm currently working on a Targetmaster version of Roller though I might have overdone it a bit and made him a Cannon master compared to mini Prime...

That's fun!

What are the specs on those split pegs for axles? I was thinking of using that structure for a propeller base, but I was worried it would get too small for the printer.

thanks, wait till you see the targetmaster version This will be my first transforming model. Not the first one designed, but the first I've actually gotten modeled lol.

Those axles are 3mm across w/ a 1mm channel. I figured that was the smallest I could make them. The "arrow head" part extends 0.3mm so I fear for them getting worn off. hopefully it should be enough to catch on the rim and keep the wheel in. At this size I don't expect there to be a whole lot of pressure being put on them.
