Dark Sun


Gundam Kai

Recommended Posts

Yea I made this purely outa legos. Some of the joints don't match the basic color scheme since I had a limited number of black and grey joints. There really isn't a story behind this giant transforming Gundam MS. I can't decide on what scale I want it to be, but I'm thinking about making it 1/2000 scale.

 

Anywho here are the pics.

Impressive, I'm always amazed what people can make out of legos. Makes me miss my collection, though I think my mom through them out years ago after I moved out.

There were actualy many prototypes to this version. Part of him actualy used to be the stand that I made for him, but it just looks alot better with the stand an actual part of him. For me the key to getting awesome creations is listening to like rock music. It stimulates my mind and creativity. I'm going to post more pics of him tomorrow and eventualy make another stand. Without the stand he can't even fit between my shelves(which there's about 14in space between them), so with the stand he'd go to the top shelf. If I take him apart I'll show pics of my basic frame, but without the lower legs since they vary per model

Nice work! I especially like the head and upper torso.

 

One slight point - if it's possible, I'd suggest reducing the abs to a 2x4 as opposed to a 4x4 piece. I think it would improve the look a little.

 

Other than that, great stuff!

Do you mean make it shorter or thinner? I like it the way it is. It gives it a big large menacing feel to it. And if it were at 1/2000 scale, it would end up being about twice as talle as the Empire State Building. Thus I got the name "Dark Sun" from his being able to prevent the sun from hitting the earth on account of its rather large size.

Thanks. Just so you guys might have a better understanding of how large he is, the length of my hand (from wrist to top of midle finger) is about 6 inches. He is rather large and looks like death flying towards you.

Oop, sorry. Shorter. He looks to me just a touch stretched in the vertical direction. But if you're happy with it, don't change a thing! :thumb

    • Always more, following the first looks images we have more, better images of the Transformers Legacy Evolution Bombshell Deluxe class figure. These new shots give up a much better look at the newest Insecticons faction member that hardly looks like its a partial of another mold. Legacy Evolution is expected to be part of the Wave 4 deluxe figures that may be released sometime in October 2023. - Read the Full News Story
    • Does anyone else find it kind of funny that they managed to get Bombshell before they got Shrapnel?  Thinking about this being a retool more, I wonder if it's less likely that we'll get Venom, Barrage and Chopshop now. We got Ransack because there really isn't anything else to do with Kickback other than Shothole. So since Shrapnel and Bombshell already share parts, does that mean that Hasbro won't do the other deluxe Insecticons due to not needing to since they're partials of each other.  Or does this make it more likely? Since they saved money on Shrapnel and Bombshell they can afford to make Venom, Barrage and Chopshop as further retools. At least Venom would need new parts regardless and maybe that's why they're trying to save some money here. Chopshop and Barrage could just be straight new head redecos like Ransack was.  I just hope that they don't finish the deluxe Insecticons again or they make the rest but the final three will all have new parts whereas Ransack doesn't. It makes me wish they did that abdomen gun thing instead of the wing swords for Ransack like what was originally planned for the mold. Not that it matters since I have that one upgrade that gives Ransack his shield and a new gun but still, the abdomen gun would've been cool too. A full set of clones/SG Insecticons would be nice too. Maybe even Beet-Chit not that that name would make it to shelves without a change even though it doesn't mean anything bad and only just sounds like it.
    • We may have been down this road before but now it's dark dark dark. I'd told myself I wasn't gonna get this guy, but well, here we are. Have you got him? you gonna get him? Hit me up in the comments below and lets get nerdy with it!    
    • Just out on the SNS are what is being reported as the first look at the Bombshell from Transformers Legacy Evolution. The images show the rumored Wave 4 deluxe partial of the Shrapnel mold as the next Insecticons team member. Chances are good we will be seeing this reveal in the coming summer convention season at SDCC or beyond for an October release. - Read the Full News Story
    • If it's a movie cycle you know there will be plenty of Bumblebee toys. Beast Mode Bumblebee features lights, sounds, and a third mode hybrid of beast and bot. Transformation is simple, but there are a few steps that I think older fans will enjoy. Overall, Beast Mode Bumblebee caters to a specific audience but there are a few things that all fans can enjoy.
