Botch the crab

When I saw 3-D rendition on iaconcity I thought it was a really cool design so wanted to see if I can make one. This is based on Adam Alexander's fan character Botch the crab. You can read more about it here:

It was harder to make this than I expected due to the small scale of it. It was difficult to try to get all 6 legs to fold up neatly in cassette mode. It didn't come out as clean as I would wanted it. Also, I am awaiting cassette stickers to be made for me so the front of the cassette mode looks plain at the moment.

That is a seriously cool bash :clap

Make them in bulk please! leak the designs to some factory in China or Vietnam!

Brilliant! I believe Soundwave now has just about every kind of animal in cassette form at his disposal. Well done!

 

Now make some new bomb-minions for Cybertron Soundwave! Pretty-please?

A-f'n-mazing! I've never seen a scratch-built cassetteacon before, but even if I had, this would probably be the best!

Who's making the stickers? Reprolabels charges an arm and a leg for custom stickers, but it's worth it for this boy!

Awesome, botch the Crab is a great blog/site.

Awesome!

That's pretty cool. Just waiting to see it with stickers.
