In between my major LEGO projects that sucked me many many weeks (months even) of time to complete .. I took a breather by grabbing a lego set and build (yet again) a LEGO Transformer.
LEGO set 70842:Emmet's Couch Mech is from LEGO Movie 2 theme and only recently I managed to get it at 50% off. What a bargain!
Since the set itself is officially a mech, so most of the parts are useful to build robots as well.

[/url]The core design was completed by day 3... and I spent another 2 days more to refine it.

[/url]A microscope mode was created purely out of experimentations since this lego set doesn't have wheels (for land based mode) or adequate number of wedge/slopes (for swooshable plane/space jet mode).

[/url]Transforming between modes doesn't require reassembly of parts.

[/url]I'm very pleased to discover this set has parts for me to build the robot fingers as well , compared to just knuckles with holes in them.
