LEGO Doubledealer Triple changer

Postby alanyap » Wed Jun 29, 2022 5:51 pm

As a child, I had many KOs and one of them was Doubledealer. I didn't knew he was part of G1 TF series really. But as the sole triple changer (I'm a big fan of one) in my collection then.... he gave me tons of nostalgia.

2 years ago ,around March I think, hasbro finally released a sneak preview of updated version of DD. Sadly, I was dissapointed with how the bird mode turned out, and don't get me started on his knee joints position.

I guess it;s time for me to build my own DD instead. So there!

Even thought the project was only completed few weeks ago, 90% of the time it was in limbo.. due to some technical design challenges I was unable to resolve then.

As you can see.... I made a huge tradeoffs by letting the bird wings to be exposed in bot mode. There's simply no way I can conceal them snugly.

And oh yes.. and project as ambitious as this deserves its own "outtakes" video, where I show a few design challenges and how I solve them :






Well, putting a closure to this project means I finally can move on to the next triple changer project I had in mind. Sandstorm perhaps?

DD is one of my favorite TF ever and your Lego works is impressive!

I tried making TF out of Lego before and it always end up into giant pile of garbage...
So seeing a TRANSFORMABLE Lego Transformers that don't fall appart is always impressive.
Come see my latest creation, a Galvatron Combiner using 4 SS86 Sweeps as limbs HERE!

Also, an update to my old ALL HELICOPER VICTORION!
