LEGO Predaking Instruction Part 3 - Rampage

I'm late I'm late I'm late so sorry for being behind schedule............! I can't believe time flies.   I spent the last 2 weeks working everyday (and every other nights) and things have been shifted to high gear when a local press covered some projects in my  firm , and the article was published. I'm helming the programming part of this ambitious web project which is a nightmare to code indeed. (and the constantly ringing phones simply threw my focus away. [Note to self: ask boss to provide soundproof  room for me in the future] ).

Every time I drove past cool looking vehicles like a crane or some trucks or even a milkvan , I would think "oh boy how I wanna LEGO-fy this beast when I'm free".  Ok ok.. a milk carrying minivan is not actually beastly but it would be cool one day to make a LEGO Transformer out of it. :)

Ok thats enuff ramblings for now. I think I'll stop now with my mild "rampaging".

On to the actual Rampage...

LEGO Predaking Instructions Part 2 - Tantrum

I make it a point to update my blog with new entries at least once a fortnite.. but for Predaking Instruction... once a week to keep the momentum going. However... work got the better of me (I wear many, many hats in the firm I'm working). It's Saturday morning when I'm preparing this entry. Afterward I'll be zipping off to work again to rush for the all important deadline.  

New here? Click below to view Part 1 first.

Part 2 here I come!

^ Don't just follow my instruction as-is. He deserves an updated design with newer parts. Some cheese slopes here and there would do magic. And that's the point I did not provide the parts list for my instructions. You just gotta  improvise as you go along. Hope you guys understand my intention :)

LEGO Predaking Instructions Part 1 - Headstrong

As you know few posts back , I mentioned about recovering  some important files thought to be long lost after my hard disk died. Yes. I found the whole stash of LEGO Predaking building instructions files!!

A quick recap: LEGO Predaking consist of  5 Predacons limbs with each one transformable into different animals. Click on the link below (more photos there):

 I shall start the ball rolling by showing building instructions for Headstrong, the left leg for Predaking. Ready?

LEGO "Fall of Cybertron" Snapdragon

In my early years of MOCing... I set sight on building Snapdragon because he's one of my favorite Transformers Triple Changer. Back then, I didn't have much parts to get started, so that MOC end up having different color than it's original toy (below).  So the time have come for me to improve him because I can't bear to see him in yellow anymore.  

In the original toy, Snapdragon is a Headmaster triple changer that transforms between a jet , dragon and finally a robot. The headmaster companion is a minifigure that transform into Snapdragon's robot head and beast head as well. However, due to issues pertaining the head-size ratio , I've decided to build him not as a headmaster Transformer, but maybe his incarnation from "Fall of Cybertron" era.

For those who wanted to see nothing but photos and more photos.. you have come to the right place. Let's go!

Instructions for LEGO Neo Hot Rod

Once upon a time... I took my first step in documenting my LEGO-formers instructions by developing a custom web application to assist me in  quickly pinpointing each part needed and store the info in a database, so that parts list  can be generated to accompany each instruction images (or for the whole MOC).

But disaster struck and my hard disk died!  I guess related data and the web app itself are  gone forever... until recently....

While I performed some file organization in my (another) hard disk..I noticed my  web app is still there! (I don't remember performing any backup. ah well!)  Further discovery exposed the instructions for a few of my favorite past MOCs.

Neo Hot Rod

This is my first MOC ever to be highlighted in brothers-brick.com. Sometimes I wondered why it gotten so many replies/views in my mocpages.com entry back then , compared to these past few years? Anyway, hope you guys out there can rebuild it and have fun doing so!

The "tiny" representation of Hot Rod came from Reissued  "Star Convoy" Transformers Toy (Japanese).  

Read on for the complete instructions..

Instructions for LEGO 6914 T-rex Mecha Alternate Mode

As a followup to my previous post here where I showed some photos of  a alternate mode / mecha made from  set Creator  6914 T-rex, below are the instructions to build it. Enjoy!

Upper Body

LEGO 6914 T-rex Mecha Alternate Mode

The first time I saw set 6914 box art (preview) online, it's definitely high in my  must-have list . 

I finally took a lil' time off to open it and built the main model (t-rex) on the first night, and the 4-legged dino on the 2nd night (yesterday).   The latter was an unsatisfied building experience...

  

So....I dismantled it after 30 minutes and MOC a mech out of it in about 1 hour.
