Video Tutorial: Thundertank Transformer from LEGO Creator set 31088: Deep Sea Creatures

 
Wow... I can't believe It's been more than a year since I tinkered with this set!

PROLOGUE

In my early days of building Transformers with single LEGO sets 5 years ago, I usually made  only one TF per set and then called it a day. Then I  find the next new sets  to experiment around with . Set 31088: Deep Sea Creatures was one of those sets.


And then pandemic happened, and I was  forced to stay indoor, work from home. With limited access to new LEGO sets,  I started to recycle my alternate builds,  and build different variants of Transformers using those sets. And set 31088 really proved it's worth, with 3 new creations produced in a single year at it's peak!

I recently discovered that the last time I made anything using the set above was about one year ago! (video below)


So I guess time is ripe for me to make a new Transformer using the set this year... and make this an annual event at least!

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Actually the inspiration to built a Thundertank Transformer came from my earlier Thundertank TF using the latest Creator Astronaut set.   Recently I have a knack of having my new projects inspired another subsequent ones, sometimes within a span of few days  . The biggest challenge here however, is the limited number of parts for me to use... 230 pieces.





Thundertank is an iconic vehicle from Thundercats cartoon back in the 1980s .

 

I got a feeling this vehicle mode has more resemblance to the Thundertank from latest Thundercats cartoon aired in the year 2011 





 

Paw up!!
