Custom 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime trailer

Recommended Posts

Only the mold already cost me over $80,000 , not mention material fee, producing fee, assembling fee, boxing fee Etc.

As I said, I just design it in computer using catia and pro/engineer, and find a factory to make the mold according to the 3d model.

Is that $80,000 USD, Yuan, or Yen?

 

If it is yuan or yen, I think this trailer should be made 1 year ago even earlier.

First off,Little Robot.co.nz;cut the Blot. wv,who happens to be my younger bro has been doing KBing for 20+ years and he also went to school for the subject,now before you go calling any one a dick and/or Afterburner ect try looking in the mirror,OH,btw what have you done in your life!!!!!!!!! other than being a smart mouth little punk (and before any one gets th cute idea that my "creds" aren't good enough),I was at war with an enemy that would sooner cut you from neck to nuts sooner than look at you!Oh yes and before I forget leave wv and his friends alone it would not be wize to anger me.ask wv some time WHAT MY MOS WAS AND WHERE I WAS STATIONED IN THE YEARS 1991-1994,IT MAY SURPRISE YOU..........NOW BACK TO MY FAVORITE MOVIE"THE DEVIL'S REJECTS"

 

 

*Gulf War Syndrome*

 

  :rofl

oooooook,,,i think it would best serve this topic if it were to be,  :lock

NO DONT LOCK THIS THREAD, ARE YOU NUTS!!!!! People just shut up, your all entitled eo your own opinions, yes, granted. HOWEVER, the evidence is no against Dalinjj. It just isnt, He has the prototype. He has the peices that were made for a mock up trailer. Hes got everything that is needed to be sure that it IS for real... So what if its an upscaled version of the orriginal??? Maybe thats how he wanted it.... I would love to see any one else do this, and then get bitched at for doing so. Why do you have to be hatin on him for doing something that he wants to do? I for one, love this trailer and WILL be buying one. And I dont think that there is any real legal issues because of the fact that it IS an upscale toy, and that it was modified to fit a slightly different connection. So, Dalinjj, dont listen to anything that these people in here are complaining about, just stick with it, and do your thing man...... OH! and Ill take 2 please?

YES,I do have gulf war syndrome,and I've been feeling abit ROWDY as of late so if there's a problem w/that ...................................DEAL WITH IT!!!!!! and now back to"cooking with cobra commander" this week he's making "baroness b-b-q w/ a side of serpentor slaw"

 

YUM,YUM!!!

 

 

Oh boy... this is exactly what the forums needed - another unstable nonsensical yahoo who thinks that their 'shock factor' type of humor is unique.  :roll

 

Been there, done that.

 

Anywho - back to the topic... I think that regardless if this is a prototype, or a knockoff, or a kitbash - it provides a solution to what a lot of people wanted. It's a transformable Optimus Prime trailer that goes with MP 20th.

 

It looks pretty cool IMO, and if the price wasn't so steep I would own one.

I'm not convinced yet but i do need to apologize to Dalianjj for my comments towards this being real or fake

 

But till i have one in hands and see what's like i'll judge otherwise

 

till then i have doubts about it

Ok now my 2-cents on this:

 

Oh my god some of you guys are complete dicks (especially WraithVerge) this guy has bent over backwards to show you guys something and your slamming him every step of the way! He has provided most of what you guys have asked for and you still don’t believe him. What’s not to believe! there’s photos, 3d models, prototypes and the finished product.... and you still think its a scam/ko/whatever. Please take every offence by this: you guys are dicks!

 

WraithVerge:

Its not a kitbash! Stop going on about it as though it is! Its something that this dude is getting mass produced. Your asking a whole bunch of retarded questions that you 'think' you know heaps about. He never even said it was a kitbash!

 

if it's molded, can we see pics of the molds?
and
at this size, how did you avoid the warpage that inevitably occurs in molded pieces of this size? Is it warped at all? And if so, how did you fix it?
unless he works at the factory (which he has never alluded to) how the f.. would he know stuff like that?

 

the trailer looks exactly like the pic on the box. is the box custom? And if so, how did you do the chrome lettering? it looks so professional.

The justtoys one came with a proper box, is it crazy to assume that maybe other people in the world can make them too?!? Have you not seen the hundreds of custom boxes that people make around that look amazing, his is like them except mass printed along with the product. Just a side note, chrome lettering is a printing process called foil stamping. Its simply treated as an extra colour pass during printing. It is possible in customs too! ..... but once again (cos you probably still don’t get it) its NOT a custom/kb.

 

Don’t get me wrong some of your questions were valid like asking for size comparisons etc, id also like to see  :thumb but when you throw them in amongst the ones that come across as attacks they seem to loose their validity.

 

Ultimate Megatron:

Are you just copying every other moron that’s stated "that looks the Korean knockoff", its not! read the rest of the threads and you’ll read the Korean one is much smaller!

 

Nope. The likeness to the original is dead on, and all he can provide to show he made it is a crappy 3d model. Something isn't kosher

That "crappy 3d model" just happens to be fantastic, he hasn’t rendered it which is why the preview looks kinda lo-fi and the optimus truck part is obviously just there for size/proportion purposes (no need to properly build that in 3d) and yes the whole point of it is to make it exactly the same(dead on) as the original, that part is definitely not hard to re create in a 3d programme, just need original trailer and a ruler.

 

Weirdo:

Ultimate dumbass. Just agreeing with everyone else doesn’t count as a worthy post.

 

So basically to all of you guys being so negative towards this dude, get a life(especially WraithVerge)... your not usually this much of a prick... in fact your usually pleasant and very helpful. Maybe you just need to come down from your high horse for a while, then join the conversation when you’ve got your facts all sorted.

 

Edit for sp and rephrasing

 

 

I do, and you're a moron.

 

First off saying  that you built a kitbash/custom/repaint and it was manufactured in a plant in china is like having someone else take your driving test and claiming you got a 100 percent on the test. That being the case, maybe I should have tfmaster build me a KB, and PROUDLY display it as my very own, which I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO  proud to have "built".  :rofl

 

Most of us here don't have access to a factory with equipment. And if all he's doing is hocking a trailer from a company in china, regardless of whether or not he paid to have it done, then kindly post  in "The End cap" topic, AND NOT HERE.

 

Secondly, I asked the opinions of five people before I went ahead with this, and they are people respect A GREAT DEAL. If you're going to call  fellow colleagues of mine names like "dumb ass", then kindly don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way back to the AllSparklers. trust me; we won't miss you here. :wave

 

Also, my high horse? You only have 45 posts or so, and you're trying to pull rank on ME? I may not be an engineer, but I can do more with a serrated steak-knife and a chunk of styrene than you can do with an Autocad setup, CNC machinery and all the technology from JPL. I didn't have the luxury of having all the best materials and tools, but somehow, I still manage to get my work done. BTW, if you're so great and awesome, where's your contribution to the Idiot's guide? That's right: IT DOESN'T EXIST.

 

At the very least, I can claim that my hands worked on my projects, and not some faceless company in Taiwan or China that can pump these things out by the thousands per day. Which makes me wonder: how many boards did you guys get laughed out of before you landed with that thing here?

 

Oh one more thing: to call this an MP prime trailer is like calling an Edsel "next-generation sportscar." Sounds good in theory, but doesn't really work when you try it on the racetrack.

 

So, my apologies if I sound like an assh*le; making comments about me is fine. Even questioning my abilities and resources is fine. it's all good. But when you do that and then have the sheer audacity to insult others here that work a lot harder than dalianjj did on our projects(Sorry, I forgot that we don't HAVE 8 baillion buck to throw around. silly us.), then that just pisses me off.

 

So think of me what you will, but I'm not here for those who can pay factories to build their dreams, I' m here for those who want to do it THEMSELVES, and are willing to get their hands dirty to do it.

 

 

And now, before this gets anymore out of hand, and possibly results in bans and warnings, let's end this.

The controversy.  :inheek / :roll

 

I'm not about to pick a side, I didn't even know this was being made.

 

Personally I think it looks really good but so does the knockoff or whatever the hell it is. Considering how much money dalianjj aparently invested into this project I personally think a good way to settle this would be to get a Knock off and compare it side by side. If they're identacle I really don't know what to say. Seeing as they're both constructed entirely differently there should be obvious differences between plastic/material quality/durability.

 

As for the construction of the individual parts. If it was all molded in a factory can you give an indeapth description of the process. I used to work with a lot abs plastics and may have an idea what went into this.
