Transformers Headmasters Skullcruncher Sword/Tail

thingiverse

While Headmaster figures are fairly common, they are mostly found these day without any accessories at all. This is a pain but more so when accessories play a large part in one or more of the figures modes. While the Heads are the most common part people want, there are a list of others. Skullcruncher, like fellow Headmaster Weirdwolf, used one of his weapons as a Tail. Without it, he is a stump tailed crocodile (not alligator.. kinda), with it, he looks far better. In Robot mode, the Tail works as his Sword. Using a couple of photos for reference, this appears to be a pretty good copy of the sword tail and will fit the 5mm connector for the tail as well as his hand holes without any trouble. While Weirdwolf was never-reissued, being a 5mm post, the sword is highly compatible with various transformers however, it is completely uncompatable with the Titan's return remake 'Skullsmasher' because for that, his Sword became.. erm.. a weird shield/guard which can store his gun.. yeah, that part was a bit of rubbish on that new version. I have uploaded the sword as parts instead of one as I found you would get far better results like that then printing it as one piece. I have also included some little pegs to help line up and slot together. They might need filing to fit. or choose not to use Sorry about the Photos. they aren't great. I wasn't able to print in colour cause I just didn't have enough of a close enough colour and I didn't print my pegs and as I was lining up the two halfs, the glue got a firm grip right away, so the two pieces are slightly off centre from each other. not too much though.. Also, this was kinda ready a while back but having printer problems.. I think, after a number of tweaks, it's back in working order but I'm not sure if the new stepper drivers are having an effect on quality.. I think, either way, I need to tweak the Z axis..
