Here's my latest 3D print project - Ultra Magnus!
Admittedly, I've told a few people that my next Transformer model would be a Bumblebee, but I had already started modeling Magnus' head. Heck, I even considered ONLY doing the head and putting it on the Optimus body, but that wouldn't be as fun.
Speaking of Optimus, I took the approach of "retooling" my Optimus model. After all, the original toy is essentially Optimus, but with a car carrier trailer that becomes battle armor (which the cartoon bypassed and just made the armored form his character design). I did do a little prototype head, but I didn't consider the design final until I could look at it and hear Robert Stack's voice coming from it, which is what we have here. As for the printing itself, I used blue, matte red, and silk white overall, and black and silk silver for the tires and hubcaps (on his feet). Then it was the usual assembly with superglue, and on some areas using Perler beads as guide posts. The only paint on him is a metallic blue for the eyes, and the Autobot logo was from a small decal sheet I got with TransArt Metal T. Rex.
Naturally, he's quite hefty!
Also of note with the comparison shots, you can see where I had loads of fun with the silk silver, especially on that Optimus and Megatron (I made that Soundwave prior to getting it, so those silver parts are all painted).
Since I went bigger with Magnus, I think it'll be kinda fun to do Bumblebee next (for real this time), since he'd be smaller. Just need some yellow filament first.

Tl/Dr: Don't buy these toys unless they're heavily discounted. Or if you can just get Dilophocon.
Tumblr media
I'm usually easy to please with my transformer figures. And neither of the two toys are objectively 'bad' like tfp Airachnid or something, in terms of how they look both figures are beautifully painted and would looks great in a static display, especially in their alt- modes which were clearly the priority for the designers.
But, as someone who likes to play with, transform and photograph my figures this is one of those rare times I can say I was genuinely disappointed by a toy considering the price I paid (as I foolishly got them for retail price).
------ long thoughts, and pictures below ----
Firstly, the two figures are tiny, if you split the price of the box set between them they should be around the voyager or even a discounted leader in size. However both are smaller deluxe's in size.
Price discrepancy aside, the box they come in is huge, and as theres no window theres no way of seeing the actual size of the toys. About 60% of it is just wasted space. I'd have honestly called it false or misleading advertising if I'd have bought this in a store...
It does come with a cardboard display backdrop, which is cool I guess, but I don't think it's inclusion justifies the price hike or misleading box size (particularly as most of the collectors I know and any kids buying this will just chuck the backdrop away).
Dilophodon
Tumblr media
I'd describe myself as a casual fan of Jurassic Park mainly because I'm a bit of a Dino nerd, and because I love the various JP park builder games. I have huge nostalgia for old JP operation Genesis game on PC and the JP Park Builder game on Game Boy Colour, and I enjoy playing the modern Jurassic World Evolution 1 &2 games.
However, I skipped the first transformers-Jurassic park crossover set (with the t-rex) because I didn't like the Kingdom beast wars Megatron mould. But Dilophosaurus is one of my favourite dinosaurs (I like my small to medium theropods way more than the big Tyrannosaurids and the like).
I know the frill was an invention for the movie, but even without it they look so cool, and I find them fascinating as early Jurassic Dinosaurs a time period were relatively few dinosaur fossils have been discovered (at least compared to the late Jurassic and Cretaceous).
To be fair, she's a decent toy and if she was on sale on her own for a fair price I'd actually recommend it. She has a fun and fairly intuitive transformation which is somewhat reminiscent of Kingdom Airazor. And she looks great in both Dino and bot mode.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But it has a number of annoying little problems considering how expensive the box set is.
Firstly, her frills do not stay tabbed in, indeed they'd fallen off inside the box when I got it open, making her look like she was wearing a pair of comedy giant ears.
Similarly her arms are supposed to tab in between her legs in Dino mode, but at least on my copy they do not want to stay securely plugged in.
There's also a problem with her shoulders, one of my pet leaves with figures is when the arms do not directly connect with the torso. While the issue is not as bad as on legacy Shadow Striker, due to the transformation her shoulders are attached to very loose hinge joints. If they tabbed or locked into place that'd fix the issue, but unfortunately they're just left flop around when you're trying to get her into a dynamic pose.
But overall she is a good toy, minor flaws aside... Unfortunately the same can't be said for her companion...
JP12
(I still think that's a really stupid name...)
On the plus side I do like how they clearly tried to homage Nedry it the bots robot mode design. With the chubby look due to tires on the stomach and rounded face, with a faux microphone, it definitely brings the character to mind. The car mode also looks fantastic with a load of paintwork and tiny little Jurassic park decals.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Unfortunately as a transformer he's really frustrating...
He has a fully moulded interior complete with back seats, which looks cool in alt mode but unfortunately this prevents any kibble management and he ends up with the entire top of the car on his back (you can't collapse it down or anything). This wouldn't be so bad except it doesn't compress into the torso /hips at all and there's a good centimetre or more gap between his hips and the backpack which makes him look hollow from any angle except the front.
Tumblr media
The moulded in interior also really hinders the transformation. Because you can't move the side panels out of the way there's very little clearance. When going from car to bot mode it's really difficult to get his feet and legs unfolded (as there's barely accessible "door-like" panels on the front of the leg that you need to open to get the leg straightened), or to bring his shoulders out. Folding the bonnet down to form the chest is also frustrating, as his door-wings just catch on the backpack.
Getting the robot back to car is even worse, you basically have to just smoosh all his parts past each other until they vaguely get into the right position. It's honestly on a par with some awful third party transformations when it comes to the clearance issues.
And like Dilophocon he has shoulder issues. His shoulders are on thin struts attaching to the central torso, and attach into place using really small tabs that do not want to stay in position. Meaning you'll often find your JP12 looking like some sort of body horror monster with his arms protruding out of his stomach!
Tumblr media
There entire top of the car is also painted clear plastic. Which is prone to breakages so there might be some longevity issues. Though in this case, the fact the top of the car doesn't transform might be an advantage as you're not really putting any stress on the clear plastic when transforming it. Though there are some non-articulated pins running through the clear plastic which might be a potential breakage point.

COSMIC DANCER
so, here’s a v short story I wrote for class about the importance of exploration. two of the songs that are excerpted in my story I found through @basic-banshee ‘s fanfic Rebel Rebel which is one the best (probably the best) fanfics ever.
Also I don’t know how to do the cutoff thingy so it’s gonna be a long post 🤷‍♀️ so sorry
....
enjoy, I guess? 💕
COSMIC DANCER
Over the radio, a gentle guitar played, followed by T. Rex’s smooth and repetitive lyrics. I sighed, bliss. We were driving on a California road in our rusty tour bus. Sitting in our narrow duffel bag with my costars, with bemused smiles plastered across our faces. Cool air conditioning blew a soft breeze. We listened to beautiful, alternative music, an epic soundtrack for our journey. This was the life of a performer. A true actress.
It was the summer of 1971. I was an actress and dancer on the television and stage show, Desi Dance. We were a children’s show that taught people all about India’s rich culture and history. Dance, art, poetry, music, and food offered just a peek into Indian tradition. We had been performing and touring for six years, but it felt like we started the show yesterday.
“I danced myself right out the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon?”(1)
The guitar solo came into full sound with the backing vocals. It created a powerful feeling that filled my whole body with true hope and strength.
All my life I had danced. It was my escape, my passion, and my love. It felt like that was what I was made for. Reading also brought escape, when the pressure of being an actress became too much. Reciting poetry for my castmates or singing a song that was stuck in my head was so relaxing and freeing. The lyrics are what spoke to me about music, and while I had quite a large vocabulary, there were often times when I didn’t know what a word meant.
“Beraham, what is a womb?” I questioned the boy next to me, clad in loose fitting turquoise pants with gold embroidery.
“I don’t know, Shrishti,” Beraham said plainly.
Beraham and I both sat there, still enjoying it, yet dumbfounded. Curiosity, a crimson rash that we needed to itch, in that unreachable spot on your back. This infection spread throughout the whole cast, leaving all of us with that same itch.
Maybe I could ask my movement director when we get to the venue… I thought as I drifted off, wrapped up in the comfort of music and friendship.
The year was 1973. In the dressing room, now with a smaller cast, we were practicing lines and getting ready to film. I had been groomed with brushes, painted with makeup and had been dressed in the most gorgeous fabrics. My lengha was brilliant magenta with intricate canary yellow details, and paired with a simple sequinned pearly white top. I loved these days, dressing up, feeling beautiful like a royal queen.
To the left of me, a record player played a Paul Simon favourite, setting our moods to the upbeat song.
“The mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Oh, the mother and child reunion
Is only a moment away”(2)
A familiar feeling of confusion washed over me. Why is the reunion so important? Why were the mother and child separated? Who are they?
Who is my mother?
Where is she?
Everyone has a mother. Our director, our manager, our movement director, the children in the audience; everyone except me and my fellow actors.
Everyone except me.
I tried to close my perfectly designed eyes, to block out the image of my unfortunate life, but my body refused to listen to my command. Blinking wasn’t even in my control.
I felt so overwhelmed. I had no identity. Who am I? This was a question from too deep in my heart for me to bear.
It was too much. I wanted to leave, I had to get up. I willed my thin, stick-like legs to stand up, pushing, using all the strength I had, just to leave the room.
Nothing happened.
I tried again, hoping for something, some sign of my own independence.
Nothing.
My body wasn’t mine. My will, myself, I could not control it. My life wasn’t mine.
I looked around at my colleagues, chatting, laughing, and totally unaware of their inability to be free. Bound to our employers who dictate and orchestrate our every move.
“Oh, little darling of mine
I can’t for the life of me
Remember a sadder day
I know they say let it be
But it just don’t work out that way”(2)
Paul Simon was right, I still can’t remember a sadder day than that one. My life had changed forever.
As years passed, I began to feel emptier and emptier, resenting my profession, and hating my life. Those years also happened to be our most successful, as a show. The success changed everything. Our bosses got sloppy; high on the fame, as well as their drugs of choice.
Most notably, Arjun, our stage director, became addicted to heroin. It was a horrid sight to witness him become a shell of the person he used to be. It reminded me exactly of that sad, sad Velvet Underground song.
“Heroin, be the death of me
Heroin, it’s my wife and it’s my life
Because a mainline into my vein
Leads to a center in my head
And then I’m better off than dead”(3)
It broke my heart to see him like this. I couldn’t understand how he could inject a toxin into his body by choice. How he could slowly kill himself one high after another.
By then, I had realized that I wasn’t human. I was something else, like them, yet different; stronger, yet weaker.
I spoke with my closest companions, Beraham, Jaidev, and Mitali. They were as confused as I was the day I realized I entered this world without anyone, without a mother. They too began life motherless.
The directors, started our show with shining faces, and now were graying and worn out. We kept the same expressions over the years, never seeing a wrinkle appear, never feeling an ache or pain, never feeling or looking our age.
We hadn’t aged in the past 20 years. We were to be used, like the puppets we were, forever.
“What can we do?” Mitali questioned, urgency overtaking her usual calm nature.
“Nothing,” Jaidev said. “It’s hopeless…”
“I want you to know deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go
There is another world… a better world
Well, there must be…”(4)
I felt like the Smiths were reading my mind; I wanted another world, a better world, and I hoped with all my heart and soul that there would be one.
This was the lowest depth of our depression. We considered “ending it all”, whatever that meant.
Most of the time our directors listened to nonsense music filled with empty, happy thoughts that had less meaning than my life. When we listened to the melancholy music of Miles Davis, Billie Holiday and Chet Baker, that our bosses listened to so rarely, it felt reassuring: someone else suffered as we did.
Determined to solve this problem, I decided to speak with the director about our conditions. I had heard the humans refer to us as “puppets”, inanimate objects who could only recite lines, made only of felt, and paint. This sounded as bad as any slur that I’d heard before. They pushed and shoved us around, threw us in crowded duffel bags. This had to stop. We needed to break away from the chains the humans bound us in.
“Today we will close our show with an excerpt from Keralan poet, Kamala Surayya. “I am sinner, I am saint— I’m sorry. I can’t do this,” I paused, taking a moment to think of the right words.
“I cannot read the words of a woman who has lived and loved, while I am kept here, held captive by you humans!” I angrily burst, far less eloquent than I had imagined, emotion overtaking my composed mask.
My face turned a deep scarlet shade of red, reminiscent of tamaatar; something that had never happened before. The camera people, directors, and executives stood in place, too shocked to move or speak, the puppet that they had manipulated for so many years had finally taken control and spoken back.
Divya, a camera person, pale and shocked, stuttered, “W-what is happening?” She glanced around nervously at the other people in the room to see if they saw the same thing.
“Divya, you aren’t hallucinating. This is very real. My costars and I are conscious beings; we may not be able to move like you humans, but we deserve the same treatment as you. We have thoughts and feelings, hopes and dreams. The way you speak about us is degrading. The way you touch and move us is disrespectful. We deserve respect and our thoughts and opinions are as valid as yours,” I spoke with a dignified tone. “The cast and I would like to have a meeting with all of you to discuss our treatment.”
Wide eyed, the crew, obediently agreed and took us to our cramped dressing room. The room was painted a pale yellow with a cheap elephant decal on the wall that was torn and peeling on the edges. This tiny room barely housed all thirteen of us cast members. With all of the behind the scenes crew in our room, we were packed in tight, like sardines in a tin.
“We have called this meeting today to negotiate our rights and responsibilities within this community,” Mitali serenely began. “Our citizenship within our show needs to include us as full members with equal rights and consideration. We understand that your use of us has immense benefits for you, with few benefits for us.”
“You make significant profits from our labor. Your wage is even plentiful enough for you, Arjun, to fund your addiction.” Jaidev scoffed.
With a quivering chin, Arjun begged, “What can we do to fix our mistakes?”
Beraham blustered, “ We want a change in your behaviour!”
“We cannot move on our own, so we expect help and kindness. When you have moved us in the past, even just five minutes ago, you throw around our bodies, like the inanimate objects you believe us to be. We want to go outside and see the world. We want more space in our dressing room, and we expect some real answers about who and what we are,” I demanded.
Afters some discussions we learned that we were the descendants of Saraswati, the Goddess of wisdom and art. The movement directors, who were called “puppeteers”, had no idea that we could do more than just read prepared lines, until we had all travelled to America. This was too far away from the Pundita, that had given them the divine puppets that we were. They could not receive guidance. They had no idea as to what we were capable of, or how to teach us.
That Pundita was my mother.  Her name was Tavni, and I was given a picture of her.
She had a golden, caramel complexion, with large eyes and hazel pupils. She had a smile that lit up a whole room and round, rosy cheeks.
I noticed the similarities in our appearances, the way she had crafted me to look so much like her.
I had found my identity.
Learning all of this information brought a new sensation to my eyes; something burning and prickly, and a wet droplet traveling down my cheek. I was crying! This feeling brought a warm emotion of relief, of content and of closure.
Soon after these discoveries, I realized that I loved my job. Even though the past years had been rough, this was what I was meant to do. If conditions improved, I would truly be happy.
I was going to do what my mother created me for. Dancing and performing, bringing India to the whole world and teaching about our glorious culture. I would do just that.
“I danced myself into the tomb
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it strange to dance so soon?
I danced myself into the tomb…”(1)
