LEGO breastforce Guyhawk/Gaihawk with Hawkbreast

Postby alanyap » Sun Apr 03, 2016 10:37 pm

INTRODUCTION

Guyhawk is the member of Breastforce team that transforms into an MIG jet plane and left arm of Liokaiser.

From a team of 6 breastforces, Guyhawk is the first to be built back in Dec last year. He comes with Hawkbreast, his Breastforce companion.

Trivia

- The most demanding parts come literally from the front-end (read; the front and the back of the jet mode)

Front challenge:

The cockpit and nosecone were meant to fold to the back in robot mode, it resulted in huge long kibble pointing downwards when my hinged mechanism only managed about a 130 degree range (the G1 toy version of Guyhawk's cockpit/nosecone folded to almost 180 degree) . I decided to apply another hinge on the nosecone so it can point upwards in robot mode to "synch" with both wingtips.



Back challenge:

The 2 tailfins/stabilizers at the backside must be folded away when Guyhawk in Combiner arm mode . This can be easily be designed if not the the extra 2 stabilizers on top of the plane's rear ,complicating my efforts.

Another back challenge which I decided to accept is the implement the fighter jet engine. The existence of 4 stabilizers at the back leave no more room for another hinged mechanism for jet engine on top, so I have to go "under" and have these jet engines to be folded up the robot's rear (aka bongo drums kibble).

What could've been

I attempted to distribute the mass of the stabilizers to the butt of the robot too initially but they turned into horrible buttflaps , so I undo this design.


Near misses


Just like most of my published LEGO TF, Murphy's law always strike halfway through the photoshoot! I've forgotten to design hawkbreast to be held by the robot's arm (which are almost studless) ! Luckily after a while I managed to connect them still via the hawk's claw clipped onto the hand.


Pleasant suprise


The idea of perching hawkbreast on the robot shoulder came during photoshoot, and I didn't design the bot earlier to cater for that at all. Luckily the hawk's c-clip claw found a place on the bot to clip on sturdily!

Weapon: Twin Sonic Cannons
Pure awesomeness yet again!

I love the recreation of the animal helmets; it's a real source of these guys' visual individuality, and the Lego style pulls it off surprisingly well. Plus, the similarity between the helmet and the animal partner ties the theme together perfectly.

Wow, this really maintains/builds on the quality of your Killbison! Looking forward to seeing the combined Liokaiser.

In terms of MOCs; great job incorporating the technic/constraction balljoints into a largely System build. Impressively seamless.
