Do you take your Transformers like you take your paperwork: puzzling, in copious amounts and ..made out of paper? Then check out Paperformed.com, for some cool paper-based models of some of our favourite transforming robots. So far, they only feature a Drift model - under the guise of Racing Warrior - but it looks fully articulated, and changes from robot to vehicle mode, for only $10! Check out more here and below!

Racing Warrior

Paperformed.com's first, and signature product. Racing into battle, this drifting race car changes into a sword wielding robot warrior. As the robot takes shape, the swords' hilts slide out automatically, ready for quick action.

Racing Warrior is made out of 202 parts, laid out on 6 pages. The instructions count 47 pages. This papercraft model is rated at an expert level. As such, the instructions assume that the builder has some experience recognizing how parts are meant to be folded and glued in shape, and instead focus on the correct order of putting the parts together, and how the moving parts interlock.

Papercraft purchases on Paperformed.com are linked to user accounts. Because of this registration is required. With your account, you will be able to access purchased files at any time.

On Paperformed.com files containing the templates are password protected. You will receive the password for the file in your confirmation e-mails. You will also be able to see your purchased files in your account pages, where the password will be listed as well.

Different poses and angles, like a regular Seibertron.com toy gallery.

I'd have to check some galleries, but poses, well, that won't really work. It's just paper. It already has joints for the transformation. To have joints for articulation as well would make the thing way too floppy. And probably a pain to build too, since having stuff like that next to eachother would force parts to be tiny.
