GUARDIAN ROBOT







ONE OF MY NEW FAVORITES...HE'S GONNA GET BETTER ARTICULATION


I'D LOVE TO SEE SOME OF THE OTHER GREAT STUFF THAT YOU GUYS HAVE

Ouch... My ears dude. O-o;; No need to yell so much...


A.k.a. "Ease off the caps." >.>;!

Back on topic... Nice stuff. :3 And which one in that pic? You mean the Armada Prime...? Or another?

really....you can't hear thru words i think your just being silly

but it's the ko beast machines prime in the background
pretty bad a$$

and these were just some of the things that kept me busy

my failed alternators kup (2002 thunderbird, goldbug, and cliffjumper (mr2) won't be shown anytime soon

one of my favorites though

i think she was making a subtle reference to the fact that all the typing was in caps i like that little omega what line is that from?

ah......... sarcasm

so far we've all used it differently in thus thread....
sometimes it's hard to tell with out inflection

its a lot later here on the eastcoast bumblebee i should already be sleeping. i dont belive sarcasm is angers uglycousin i belive its more like a weird uncle who liked fartjokes and gave you quarters.

Um... I wasn't using sarcasm... What BBee1251 said wasn't really sarcasm... O.o;; It's more just "bad jokes" methinks.

Anyways... Like that Goldbug... Though will admit looks like Sunstreaker thansk to all the people using that head as his! xD

Have to ask, though... Is your Goldbug holding a Gundam gun? o.o?!

And why won't we see the Kup...? Makes me wanna see the Kup all the more...

Wait... Is that even your Goldbug...? Or is that supposed to be 'Streaker? I are teh confussed... @.@;;

Still though... Show us your failed Alts!! >O

Where are we all going?

I'm confused as well.

Anywho, Love that Guardian!

just check that out

http://www.tfmaster.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4174

it's my sunstreaker...an i made him when the proto for deadend/sunstreaker came out...like 2 years ago.
i bought the proto with the autobot symbol molded into
the chest, reproed the head, the rest is just history.

yeah he has a gundam gun...i don't remember which one..i
think it was from the gundam hydra...the alternate series
in the gundam wing universe

and my goldbug looked like this...

they look sooo awsome , how did you not post them earlyer lol any chance of getting that collarge of all the BB heads you made,

yeah

send me your email address
photobucket won't let me using the actual size of the pic..too many mb

hehe, your sentinel looks like a dalek..

all kidding aside that is one sweet goldbug that head is perfect

Wow... Goldbug is gorgeous. And a vastly underused character (who will be appearing in Fusion, I believe...).
That's a failure? What went wrong?

*Iterates.* Yeah... What went wrong? Doesn't really look much like a failure...

man, it was an attempt at complete futility (ya like that?)

it was supposed to originally be my crowning alt. bumblebee
after being less than perfect, i figured i could salvage it by
making it goldbug. but in the end
it was completely frustrating, there were:

gap issues that couldn't be fixed
paint issues (it wouldn't stick to the body even after being resanded
and re-painted)
i couldn't get any of the joints to hold to the body the glue
kept coming undone
i couldn't secure the legs to the body, again JB Weld, epoxy, marine
epoxy, and 3 other types of super glue etc. couldn't make it stick
i finally had to give up as i was sooooooo pissed that it wouldn't
work...and if i finished it would still have sucked.
look at my snarl, first thing anyone pointed out on it was the gap issues

we've all got a good "eye" and see the little things...
I want an alt Bumblebee probably more than any other character ever,
since i was 5 he has been my single most favorite character and to
create him is to be perfect. nothing less...i hope someone else out
there understand what i'm sayin.

i totally understand ya bumble.. there are a few different lines of toys that my one fav fig isnt there. and i want one... but it wont be the same. i want a sigma 6 firefly.. so im trying to make one cause the one comming out looks like pooh... going to make a serpentor outta cobra commander. and im dying on the inside to try and find 24th scale construction vehicles to make an alt devvy... so im right beside ya man!

this is about all that i liked out of the character.

but i'm excited because i have this in store.........

yay, looks like you can change the name of this thread now!!! (does a little jig)

ok if you get a small enough drill bit you can use it to make screw holes. with the new tiny holes add screws into the tiny holes to make it strong. any small toy screws would work i like the ones from the kos that have a point they secure better. ive done this to customs you can drop them of a fridge after. i have rarely completed a custom all the way through they almost always go in the cubboard for storage till i get feeling to work on them again. that screw thing should help with leg placement

wow is that a cast of the bumblebee statue head? ive wanted to do that myself but couldnt efford the statue, , its a perfect head for any BB,

if you make any more and want to split the costs of making the mold id be happy to buy a few from you

yeah, i'm gonna make sure everyone that wants to do a bb
can have the right head. the cast/mold is ok i can only do it as
a one piece as i couldn't (actually wouldn't) take off the head from
the statue.

the head is slightly larger than a smokescreen head, put will definately
fill the the giant void that is the engine compartment.

i figure Piranacon is with me on this...but anyone else is ok to be along
for the ride.

here's what i'm thinkin
since the VW beetle is probably never gonna be made, we've got
enough talent here to do it ourselves...heck they practically gave us
most of the design already.

i am gonna use this as the base alt mode:

i like this version because it is more aggressive, more rally.
it is longer, wider and taller that the regular beetle and both are
1:24 scale[/img]

anyway, i like the look better and it will be easier to fit an
alt body into.

really my version of Bumblebee looks very similar to my goldbug.
an alt smokescreen/streak forms the basis for robot mode

the front of the body forms the upper torso
the rear the legs...obviously it departs from the bt version because
of this
i like the look, but i'm not talented enough to make it work:




hands/arms from either sideswipe...i like those the best or from skids
(which would probably fit better)
i think i've figured out the shoulder mount, the swing wheels in the upper torso, and the head/windshield/hood

but i would need help on figuring the feet/wheels, and how to fold the body in various parts.
