Name: Apeface Allegiance: Decepticon Subgroup: Headmaster Horrorcons Alternate modes: Jet plane and gorilla Motto: Obnoxiousness is not a problem. It is an art ========== Actually this guy was never in my to-built list.. but since this is "year of triple changers" for me, and Apeface is sort of a low-hanging fruit compared to other triple changers when it comes to complexity, I give that a shot. Compared to the original G1 Apeface.. some compromises must be made in the form of a different-looking jet mode. Hope you guys like my rendition! The ball joints used for the gorilla rear legs are too weak to hold his body up. So he can't stand upright . With LEGO Snapdragon I rebuilt few months earlier. (He's not a Headmaster though). To view more photos especially how he transform between modes, proceed to my blog entry below: https://alanyuppie.blogspot.com/2019/10/lego-triple-changer-apeface-part-2-of-2.html Follow me in Instagram please! https://www.instagram.com/alanyuppie78/

Scorponok a member of Team Decepticons from G1 Transformers cartoon series. As a triple changer, he turned into a mechanical scorpion, and also a huge base as well. Now you can build Scorponok using only parts from LEGO set 31129!! In the original toy, Scorponok is a Headmaster, where his head separated from his body, to become a smaller humanoid in mecha suit. My creation here however.. preserved his head in both robot and scorpion mode. Original G1 Scorpy comes with Fasttrack, a mini tank that turned into a robot . My version of Scorpy here, however..... will include a mini tank that doesn't transform MORE PHOTOS IN MY BLOG LINK BELOW! https://alanyuppie.blogspot.com/2025/01/video-tutorial-transformer-scorponok.html VIDEO TUTORIAL! The following video contains FREE building tutorial for this fine specimen above, EXCEPT the mini tank and shield.

The moment 10358 Soundwave was revealed with Ravage and Laserbeak, I knew I needed to build the rest of his cassette family! Rumble/Frenzy/Enemy The brand new design - I have to thank IG user daylight_neon for doing an early version, which I then reworked into this. I leaned in more with toy accuracy, especially with Frenzy(Blue)'s colours, and the leg detailing and transformation; I also took a bit of inspiration from the Masterpiece figures - it was also fun to make Enemy, who is quite an obscure toy-only character. I designed their piledrivers and guns, although unfortunately because of the torso design, partsforming the round tape reels is necessary if you want shoulder articulation; the upper bicep is also a part which is slightly under pressure because of the erling brick - it can be swapped with the stud facing out if you want, although it would make it wider than soundwave's door, and leave a gap in the middle. Slugfest He was an interesting one to figure out; I started with Ravage and then I realized I could just flip the way the body/spine transforms, so the outer edges of the cassette would be facing upwards. Magenta is a surprisingly rare colour, so I worked in the red of his cassette mode into the feet as those pieces do not exist in that colour. Ratbat/Wingthing With what I said earlier about the rarity of magenta, I'm still surprised I managed to make Ratbat! I used Laserbeak as a base since I thought the wing opening hinge was a good starting point, then I took some inspiration from the Masterpiece toy to work in the light grey into the wing and make it stable. the chest is designed in a way that you can replace the 1x1 tile with the printed decepticon logo one from the Soundwave set, since you get a spare. Wingthing was much easier to build as orange/keetorange is more common. I'm working on more cassettes at the moment, and I've made instructions available on rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/users/Admiraltyphoon/mocs/

Name: Stitchmaster Motto: I came, I sewed, I conquered Faction: Decepticon Role: Master interrogator Strength: Ability to coerce captured enemies into revealing secrets by applying various torture techniques involving needles Weakness: soft spot for soft toys. Tend to be distracted to help mend them instead of going out for battles. This LEGO Transformer was built at record speed of 3 days ! Not only that, I spent one extra day to make another copy of it just for photo shoot! Hope you guys enjoy 'em. For more photos showing the transformation steps, please visit my blog link below. Thank you!! http://alanyuppie.blogspot.com/2018/07/lego-transformer-sewing-machine-aka.html And here's a video of him in action!

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 My prerequisite for building this mode was that it should have basic functionalities of a typical mobile crane... the boom is able to be raised in excess of 60 degrees and full rotation of the crane using the 4x4 turntable plate. It's a pity LEGO has yet to produce a frictional turnable with maybe steps of 22.5 or 11.25 degree perhaps, as it would be very useful here for me. Crane Mode :D The slender legs of this bird are unable to sustain the weight of this MOC especially when the wings are spread further out. The tail helps alot here to ensure the following poses are possible: 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. I would say when it comes to building triple changer TF... Arcane is my tour-de-force. I am very satisfied with how the back kibble looks (thanks to the flexibility of crane neck allowing it to be tucked in fairly nicely on the robot mode's back) . Another thing I enjoy doing is "sculpting" a tight and lean abs for him. Drop by my blog to see more photos and how Arcane transform between modes! Thanks! =) http://alanyuppie.blogspot.com/2017/05/lego-triple-changer-arcane-part-3-of-3.html 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.

This project started last December and progress were averaging at one bot per month. After 7 months of gruelling yet challenging efforts, Liokaiser is finally done. However , back then (end of June) ... I was given a chance to showcase my LEGO transformers at a local store , so Liokaiser was whisked there for a month (video link below). After a month , he was put in storage as I was busy with another LEGO TF project. I'd guess I better put a closure to this now .So there :) >> As a LEGO combiner of this size, (more than 1.5 feet tall)... he is top heavy, so he can't be posed in more elaborate manner. Too much stress were imposed on the hinges . :| >> Due to complexity of individual bot , merging them to form Liokaiser caused a few weak points in connections. I'm forced to apply extra scaffoldings in a few areas to reinforce these connections, so that posing him about would not topple him over . >> Yes, it's SEVEN breastforce members I mentioned just now. In the original cartoon, Deathcobra was the 7th member of Breastforce (forming the arm) but was killed early in the show. So here, I decided to pay homage to this character by having him as a helicopter that transforms/separates into components for the combiner: Hands, head and a gun. If you wish to view more photos of Liokaiser and the whole breastforce team (more than 200 photos!) , the following blog link is a good starting point: http://alanyuppie.blogspot.com/2016/09/lego-breastforce-combiner-liokaiser.html As a LEGO TF builder, this project really pushes my limits and skills (and patience.. gawd... finding ways to merge the upper body was simply taxing). OK now I need find ways to outdo myself again. Lemme think what else I can build next. Thanks for viewing!! :)
