while your sanding, you'll know where your low spots are as they will be dark)Ĥ) Repeat 1-3 until shape is appropriate (I took careful attention to add body filler to the low spots first which will be obvious because of the matt black dust coat)Ħ) 180 grit sanding (this will smooth out the scratch marks from the 60 grit)ħ) Filler Primer (This will fill minor scratches and reveal further imperfections)Ĩ) Added detail lines with a needle file. Below is the basic process in a nutshell of how I shaped each piece and gave it more roundness:Ģ) Apply matte black spray paint dust coat (basically you spray your piece lightly with black paint as a guide coat when you sand. When the fiberglass stage is complete, you will have a strong piece but still geometric looking. 4) Once the fiberglass cloth cures over night, I cleaned the stray edges with a dremel with a 60 grit sanding wheel. Overlapping the outside of the piece is okay. 3) I covered the entire surface area of the inside of each piece. Cut strips of fiberglass cloth, and use the epoxy resin to wet out the area on the inside of each piece to where you will lay the cut pieces of cloth. Once cured, the paper will be a tad bit more stiff, but will require fiberglass reinforcement in order to increase durability. 2) I let the resin on paper cure over night to be safe.

I prefer using this over polyester resin. And heck yeah GOTG ship ones would be freaking awesome right now for the cross universe appeal of Transformers hiding in plain sight in the galactic empires.Materials I used for this stage: -EpoxAmite 100 Laminating Epoxy by Smooth-On -Fiberglass cloth -Chip brushes -Disposable cups -Organic vapor respirator -Disposable gloves -Disposable spoons for mixing -Dremel -60 grit sanding attachment for dremel 1) Next, I hardened the paper base with EpoxAmite 100 (while wearing gloves and an organic vapor respirator) which is an epoxy resin that is mixed in 2 parts and applied with a chip brush. Still kind of a shame they never got to do the helicarrier with Nick Fury and whoever else. It was so 'what if a symbiote infected Downshift/Big Daddy' and by today's Marvel line up, that car mode would make a freaking epic Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider. The Venom one was freaking phenomenal too. These still have tons of potential if they want to revisit some of the molds and remold a few heads.

And the licensing costs shouldn't be that much of a factor with hasbro having the master toy license for Marvel.Ībsolutely loved the concept of the hulkbuster Hulk tanks too. A sentinel would be cool on market right now too.

Still would love to see a Doctor Doom and Ultron rendition of these done too. The Spidey and Ironman vehicle combiner would have been cool during Spider-man homecoming.Īnd this bike Ironman has tons of potential as an Afterburner retool.

Kind of surprised they haven't found a way to re-release them during movie lines somehow. This one and the Ironman/War Machine vehicle combiner were big ones on my want list. This was one of the ones I really wanted too! This is the first time we’ve ever really had a good look at this figure or its articulation, and one thing that is evident from the photos is that it may well have been a fun figure had it been released, with a cool futuristic alternate mode that would look right at home with the Technobots.Ĭheck out the review and pictures of this figure on the Gear 4 Geeks blog. The Iron Man lightcycle has found its way into the hands of toy photographer Starscream’s Toast, who has shared photos and his thoughts on the figure on the Gear 4 Geeks blog. These included a cool looking Iron Man and War Machine combiner, which had a Tron lightcycle styled Iron Man and a humvee War Machine merge into a larger high tech flying vehicle form.Īfter Toy Fair 2010 other than one leak of prototype pictures, nothing was ever seen of these figures, and the line ended with a wimper.įlash forward seven years, and we’re able to share some images of one half of the set. Back at Toy Fair 2010, a whole bunch of Marvel Transfomers Crossovers were shown that never saw the light of day.
