Comic Effect Parts for Transformers

prusaprinters

<p>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!</p><p>There were many ideas on the various effects to do up, but here's the first set of 5.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>Here are what the prefixes/terms mean:</p><ul><li>Angle - These end in a 5mm peg to attach to your bots.</li><li>Magnet - These end in a 5mm port to glue a 5mm magnet in.</li><li>Link - These end in a socket joint, allowing for a ball joint to + snap in for extensions</li></ul><p>A special dual headed magnet piece has been provided to provide more magnetic force to prevent the larger effect parts from rotating around.</p><p>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.</p><p>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!</p><p>====</p><p>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.</p><p>Here's a quick video on this set too - <a href="https://youtu.be/RAyodeAiQzM">https://youtu.be/RAyodeAiQzM</a></p><p>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! =)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>===</p><p>This model is not to be uploaded or sold in any form and is intended for personal use only.</p><p>Check out more of what we are up to over at our Facebook Page (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/FunbieStudios">http://www.facebook.com/FunbieStudios</a>) or website (<a href="http://www.funbiestudios.com/">http://www.FunbieStudios.com/</a>)</p><p>Support us on Patreon - <a href="https://www.patreon.com/FunbieStudios">https://www.patreon.com/FunbieStudios</a> | Full listing of Models - <a href="https://funbiestudios.com/model-catalog">https://funbiestudios.com/model-catalog</a></p>
