Fremble v7

Design by TreadshotA1

Fremble v7 Each order gets you ONE robot. Changes made: New Head: Design based on G1 head design with some artistic license. Hopefully looks slightly more grown-up as well. New lower legs: Following from v6's ball jointed feet, this time the entire foot's ball jointed, giving him much more articulation, and also a few more millimeters of height. Shoulder Armor: To counteract the cuteness a bit (not too much!), I've added new armor, and also repositioned the talon symbol to the right shoulder. This armor actually serves two purposes, it bears the symbol of the Minion (Fremble has the talon symbol that he's preiously had on his leg) and also serves as the connector for the guns in SSD mode. New Piledrivers: Now slightly less comical in appearance. They're inspired by G1 Rumble's/Frenzy's weapons, with a bit of artistic license thrown in. They also serve to house the 5mm plugs that will peg into Soundwave, freeing up the shoulder. New torso: Mainly a behind the scenes change, the torso was squeezed a little bit one way and stretched another. This was done mainly to provide a better silhouette for v7, a stockier build to match the new shoulder armor. Also, the joints were repositioned (so many times i've lost track of how they changed!) to allow for the new transformation. Now allows for weapons to stow on back when not in use. New transformation: Yeah, frankly it was that or go back to the old Pulse Blasters, and i ain't doing that. To fit the new guns, the legs were redesigned to fold 90 degrees for SSD mode, and the arms fold to allow them enough room. The guns then slot into each other and attach to the front, using the connectors built into the should armor. New forearms: Added the connector to allow v7 to use the guns.

I see I wasn't clear, I meant the Black Detail material, which appears to no longer be an option anyway. So disregard my comments.

Be warned that these do not work with the Detail material. Some of it looks better, like the chest looks very smooth finished, but not all of it has the same smooth finish. But more importantly, they're just too fragile. The shoulder cover things and the elbow joints broke right off when I tried assembling them. They were very clean breaks, I think it's actually separating on one of the printing layers. Once I save up some more money I'll get them in BSF.

Dvandom, i have gone and did a few checks here and there, tried re-uploading on the off chance something went wrong there, and i'm pretty sure (read: 99%) that the elbows shouldn't be too big now. I don't know what happened with yours, as the file wasn't changed between my order and your order (my last revision says 12th Oct., which is before i ordered, not including the re-upload i dd 10 minutes ago). Regardless, it's fixed now, so anyone who is thinking of ordering one can rest easy knowing that issue is no more. :)

Really? As you can see from the photos, mine came out fine, and I don't think I changed the file since then. I can't see how this could happen. Did you contact Shapeways about it? I will also be contacting them to see if anything's up. I thought the problem was contained solely to Ravager (which is why he hasn't been released yet), as I've not had anyone have thus issue with Fremble, Eject, Rewind or the animals. Weird.

The ones I got had elbow joint balls WAY too big for the socket in the forearm, it took extensive Dremel work to enlarge the socket enough to accept the arm.
