Comic Effect Parts for Transformers

thingiverse

And here's the "what didn't I think of that earlier" comic effect set! This should work very well in enhancing the many various cool effect parts which the WFC trilogy toyline had bestowed upon us! There were many ideas on the various effects to do up, but here's the first set of 5. These effect parts were designed to be magnetically mounted to an articulated arm which can be configured and pegged into any convenient 5mm port on your figures. From the rear, the magnetic head will catch onto a magnet which has been glued onto the rear of any of the comic effect parts. To give as many options for posing this set as possible, here are the various pieces which can be mixed and matched to form the articulated arm. Here are what the prefixes/terms mean: + Angle - These end in a 5mm peg to attach to your bots. + Magnet - These end in a 5mm port to glue a 5mm magnet in. + Link - These end in a socket joint, allowing for a ball joint to + snap in for extensions A special dual headed magnet piece has been provided to provide more magnetic force to prevent the larger effect parts from rotating around. To tighten the socket joints if they are a tad loose, you can use a torch or lighter to heat it up slightly, and then use a cloth to gently squeeze the sides together while it's soft and let it cool. Another way to provide a magnetic surface on the rear of the effect parts, this special Krylon Magnetic Spray Primer can be used too - rendering the whole back surface magnetic! ==== All the articulated arm parts shown above were 3d printed in clear filament in an attempt to make them look as "see-though" as possible. Another option, for those who may be so inclined, might be to print/paint them in green so that they can be digitally removed using the green screen technique in post production. Here's a quick video on this set too - https://youtu.be/RAyodeAiQzM Hope this is a fun little set which helps bring a different dimension for both play and display for your figures! Happy 3d printing and would love to see all the creative stuff which everyone comes up with these! =) === This model is not to be uploaded or sold in any form and is intended for personal use only.
