24/11/2017 Updates! An error have been found and corrected for the legs instructions!
When I first set my eyes on this set last year, I just knew it will not disappoint! Many AFOLs attempted to MOC alternate creations from this set with great result the last few months. I admit that I was late to this party, only started to unbox it about a month ago.
This set reminds me of one Creator Set 31032 from few years ago where I MOCed a Transformer from , Infernus ( building instructions inside!).
I'm not so sure what I shall name this vehicle. Perhaps its a hovercar of some sort.
Transform!
The number of hinged parts are just adequate enough for me to get to work. Suprisingly.... it took me just a day to crank this one out. (and a few hours more later of the month to refine it).
Robot Mode
Scarcity of parts means I must make do with compromising building techniques. The hinged part located between his thighs is one fine example . I'm torn between keeping the socket part or removing it altogether , revealing the ball ummmm receptable.
This is no camera trick! He actually can stand on one foot.
I'm sorry dude! Ran out of parts to make you a weapon. You'll just have to pose barehanded.
Incoming Building Instructions!
I spent a while trying to optimize the number of steps and ended up with a small bunch of images below. Enjoy!!
Both Arms
Head
Left Leg
Right Leg
Body
Final Merging
I hope you enjoy building this guy as much as I did! Thanks for all the support !! =)
Ok, I built the 31058 Transformer! Does this guy have an official name?
ReplyDeleteOverall instructions were pretty easy to follow. Only one thing, I noticed for each leg, it shows construction using 3 2x1 light green pieces. Since there are only 4 total, 2 of these have to be dark green 2x1. I noticed in the final models, one of the lower legs uses the dark green 2x1s so I was able to figure it out.
These transformers are so fun to build. This is the 2nd one of yours I have built from the Creator sets. I find your designs are better than the official Lego models.
If your Transformers were available as official sets I would totally buy them. I really hope Lego will partner with you to make your Transformers official sets.
Thanks for sharing these with us!
i don't think that thing has a name! But i'm gonna build it! Wish me luck!
DeleteI have a weapon design for him.
ReplyDeletehow did you?
DeleteI can't put a picture on, sorry
ReplyDeleteI can tell you the instructions though. First, put a 1x2 1 clip plate on one stud on a 1x2 plate. Then, put a second 1x2 plate on the clip plate. Then, put a 1x2 1 bar plate on the second 1x2 plate. Then, put one of the white tubes with a clip on the bar plate. Then, put a normal sized bar in the tube clips tube. Then, put a 1x2 S.N.O.T brick with 4 side studs (two on each side) on the remaining stud on the first 1x2 plate. Then, put a 1x4 tile on the S.N.O.T brick and the bar plate. Then put a black technic pin in the remaining hole on the bottom of the S.N.O.T brick. And you have a blaster!
