Arcane arrives!

This LEGO TF took me almost 2 months to complete .Arcane transform into a crane ,and *hic* ... a crane . The idea to make this guy came last year and it's been bugging me since , like a song that keeps repeating itself in my brain.

I only managed to think of a name for him last week and to my suprise..... "Arcane" (despite being a pretty decent name for a Decepticon, on par with "Bludgeon" ) was NEVER used before in TF universe.


Crane Mode

Crane Mode :D

Robot Mode


One of the last component to be built was the targetmaster chick. Before this I thought of making the weapon/gun to be concealed as extensions to the bird/crane's tail.... but then again buttmaster doesn't sound right. So it's scrapped.

NO. Its not a partsformer . Transformation doesn't require parts to be taken off.

Drop by my blog to see more photos and how Arcane transform between modes! Thanks! =)

My days are numbered after this. So I instead of building unique LEGO TF from scratch.. I will be improving/upsizing my past LEGO triple changers .. starting with Springer & Broadside.

Wait... what does 'Arcrane' mean?

Oh, and by the way, awesome work.

Really nice work. (And the name 'Arcane' probably wasn't used in canon because they already had Arcana.)

Huh. It does say Arcane. I thought it said Arcrane... which would be amazing.

Arcrane sounded like a lame portmanteau to me. I chosen Arcane coz its an anagram of a crane :)
