Transformers G1 Blaster tape door spring loaded latch

thingiverse

I've accumulated a substantial collection of Transformers over time, many of which are non-functional or incomplete. As a novice in 3D printing and still learning Fusion 360, I'm taking on new challenges. My G1 Blaster part bot was missing essential components, prompting me to create replacement parts using my newfound skills. This crucial part is situated inside the right side of the eject button area, where it can be substituted with a BIC pen spring or similar alternative if you don't have the original spring. However, you may need to split the spring in half to achieve a suitable fit. This mechanism plays a vital role in opening and closing the tape deck door.
