Prototype-Tron V1

[UFO]

He's mismatched, unstable, and he looks silly. Also he has minimal articulation due to weight issues.

But he does split into

Headbot (Head):

Runbot (Legs):

Copterbot (Arms):

and the transforming Structurebot (Body):

(Structurebot is based off of that super-base-starship-robot from Macross, which I've never seen anything but toy pics of.)

Nice. No, you don't have to rearrange anything. Okay, you have to split Copterbot in two to form the arms, but everyone else transforms and combines.

Bruticus? (He's not that violent-ey looking, is he?) Cute? Bo...kay...? Yay?

Thanks.

And yeah, System TFs (combiners are a nightmare) can make you go spaz trying to figure it out. Bionicle things like this are a whole lot less head-spinning.

Yeah. Fo Sho.

Sooo....Does anyone have any suggestions on how to reinforce something ridiculous like this? Worm joints? Somehow? Where's Yap Alan when you need him....?

by super-base-robot, do you mean the Super Dimension Fortress-1?

and what do you mean by worm joints?

[UFO]

ARick: Yeah. Exactly off of that Dimension Fort. Nice.

This is a worm joint:
