Kreon Backback Models (Huffer, Throttlebot, Sideswipe)

With a some helpful pro-tips from grandmaster "wulongti," I started cobbling together some 3D software accessories for Kreons.

First up, we have the always fashionable "Throttlebot Hood," also suitable for dressing up Battlechargers or just bulking up a standard Kreon.

Next, we have the sleek, stylish jetpack accessory. Flipped on its flat side, it also serves as a plausible double-barreled cannon.

Last, and perhaps least, we have the "Huffer Hood." This has been designed in two styles -- the backpack mounting hood as well as a head mounting hood. A Kreon sporting this headpiece would most likely not also wear a standard Kreon helmet.

I was mostly just goofing off with these, so I have not actually posted them to any sites like Shapeways yet. I need to consult with the grandmaster to figure out whether my measurements were true.

But I figured I'd post them here to see if any of my fellow Kreonophiles had any interest in seeing these things produced.

Question builders:

Would you rather see the back packs:
1)Have built-in neck rings so that you can just slide the backpack onto your Kreon?
2)Have pegholes (as shown above) that could plug into a LEGO neckbrace or the back of a Kre-o flackjacket?
3)Be permanently attached to specialized vests (like a flak jacket) that was designed to resemble the chest of a specific transformer?

I like the neck rings as it does not cover any of the chest tampos they may have.

I still say that having something like the existing wing/door packs minus the wing/doors would be quite useful :)


"grandmaster" lol

these are looking good mate. I think you've caught the bug! just wait till you get your first prototypes in hand :D

It's an awesome feeling ^__^

You'll have to let me know when they'll be available
