Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Hey - I recently purchased a 3D printer after just getting back into collecting Transformers. My projects will be posted here which have been mainly for the Siege figure line (because that is all I have so far).

Parts are printed in colors of material I currently have on hand and shown without any paint apps. Kits are available to purchase. Send me a message to inquire. Pricing will range from $15 to $25

I am open to and encourage all feedback/suggestions (good or bad) and requests. Let me know what you think!

First kit to show is Ratchet. Parts listed below.

2x lower legs (inside knees)
2x knees back side
2x feet (bottom)
2x forearms (inner)
2x biceps (inner)
6x 5mm port filler (4x arms, 2x lower outside leg)
1x back

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Damn these look awesome, and really blend in on the figure

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

These look fantastic. As for a suggestion...

I'd be interested in a kit for Refraktor to mimic the Reconnaissance set toy version camera components. I want the flash, viewfinder (ideally without "Refraktor" across it) and grip for my purple clones. Give me the toon version all the way. Maybe there's enough interest beyond just me.

I saw some from China but wasn't too impressed for the price. Honestly, I'd rather give you the business although I get that it's way more involved than gap fillers.

Can't wait to see what you have up next regardless.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Hey thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it.

Yes I think figure is looking much better with the gaps filled and am very happy with how it looks.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Do you have a link of the kit you were looking at? I would like to see it to see what would be involved to create. My initial thoughts are it might be more expensive than just buying the set from Toys R Us that includes the extra parts?

I do have lots more of my work to post here so stay tuned!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Here you are:

No grip but neat that they transform into weapons:

More along the idea I'm thinking of but the the print quality looks low:

Roughly 30 bucks US. I'd rather buy from a community member tbh. I'm not afraid of painting myself. I just want the quality to be good.

Lots of good kits there from matrix workshop for ideas.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Looks great.

Does it still transform with all that attached?

Let me know details. I'd be down for a set.

Post what else you have.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

I'd like to know as well, so far the add-ons are looking great.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Some parts may need to be taken off for transformation , I have not tested this yet. My design intent for these kits is mainly to improve the aesthetics of robot mode.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Good day!
My Optimus kit is in progress. So far the parts I have designed are the rockets on the back with blast effects, new shoulder flaps with stacks, axe and blade weapons.

Let me know what you think! Suggestions? Additions/changes?

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

These kits look pretty decent. For the amount of parts $30 isn't too bad but since it's USD it's a bit much. The print quality looks good to me and is what should be expected from a FDM 3D printer (which is what I have). The other kits on the website are mainly weapons which to me look like are printed from a resin SLA printer get that detailed and clean looking.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

You do really nice work, man. I'm definitely paying attention.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Thank you so much! Your feedback really does encourage me to keep going.

Let me know if you have any ideas/suggestions/recommendations!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

I just got the Ratchet kit in hand and holy crap is it well done. Easily one of the best printed kits I have ever used.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

So glad you like it and I really appreciate the feedback!!!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Gave Optimus some blades. Inspired by the Striker Manus weapons.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Battle axes designed like Striker Manus axes. My first attempt shown in the lighter grey. More detail added to the second version in darker silver.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Wow, brilliant stuff man!
so talented:bow:

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Finally got the Siege Laserbeak and Ravage cassettes. The laserbeak is pretty good but definitely needed some G1 style rocket lasers. Here is my progress so far. Also made a 5mm peg mount to clip laserbeak's foot into.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

How much for these ??
Can you make ravages weapons??
Ratbat weapons
Frenzy rumble weapons??
Pegs for soundwave
I'm interested now

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

I just started working on this so I dont have a price yet.

I want to do Ravage weapons too so watch for those soon!

I dont have Ratbat or Frenzy figures yet. What weapons/parts would you like? pictures?

5mm Pegs for Soundwave (or any other figure) will be part of Laserbeak kit!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Siege Ravage did not look right to me. The head looks like a rat or something so I attempted to give a closer G1 look.

Here is a comparison with the new head vs rat head.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Designed and printed the missile rockets. Then tried using chrome paint to see if it would work. I think it turned out pretty good and now much happier with the look of the figure with the upgrades.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Ironhide kit completed and available. Some photos show parts installed only on one side for comparison.

Extra red and grey parts to customize look.

The full kit includes:
2x lower inner legs (red)
2x knees back side (grey)
2x feet bottom (red)
2x forearms back (red)
2x biceps inner (red and grey)
8x 5mm port filler for arms and lower outside leg (red and grey)
1x back main (grey)
2 x back upper (grey)

Photos show full kit installed on figure.

*Some parts may need to be removed for transformation.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Man, he looks so damn good with those empty hollow areas filled in.
By the way, is your username a BattleTech reference?

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Thanks, yes I agree the figure looks more complete with the empty parts filled.

My username is actually from a song by Amon Tobin, if interested...https://open.spotify.com/album/3jNgJEw3e1PSDXsZkDHDXa

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

New add ons for Siege Sideswipe (and Red Alert in alt color) in vehicle mode. The exhaust part can then be used in robot mode as jetpack thrusters which is compatible with 5mm blast effects. Also new spoiler which comes in two parts to allow leg movement in robot mode.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Absolutely outstanding. I thought mine was missing the oldschool Countach spoiler when I opened the box and saw what looked like ports of accessories on the back of the legs.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Here is the Red Alert kit.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Having some fun with Ghostbusters theme and trying my hand at designing a proton pack and gun so Ectotron can have some help busting those ghosts. Did some dry brushing with silver paint to bring out the details and give a worn look. Added custom blast effect to simulate energy stream.
What you think?

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Nice work! How does it connect? Is there a stud on the back that plugs into the Siege-equivalent of a G.I. Joe Backpack Port? The sculpt is great.

Your pack has more paint than Ectotron! The four red lights on the cyclotron are a bit too vertically rectangular, and the stream should be a more wavey, not a straight cylinder but more of a reddish curve with blue lighting wrapped around it. Not throwing any shade your way!

Forgive me. I'm a member of the Montreal Ghostbusters so I'm clearly a bit too... well, pick your adjective. Great work once again and I can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Hey, thanks for the feedback. You clearly know more about GB than I do! The proton pack connects via 5mm peg on the backside. I know the details are not exact but when printing this small some liberties need to be taken.
I agree the energy stream could use some work to be more accurate. It was my first attempt and I am limited to colors unless I paint which I don't do a lot of but I do appreciate your recommendations.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Make no mistake, I did not mean to discourage your or belittle your work! I really dig what you've done, my dude!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Try this for your proton stream.

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Thanks for the link. I don't think this would print very well on my FDM printer unfortunately as the stream parts are very thin and long. It would be easily broken. I think it is more suitable for printing from Shapeways but even that I would be worried about breakage. Thanks for the idea, its appreciated!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

wow those look great, very talented :D

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Hey Guy, just want to say I am very impressed with these cool customs and parts. I have ordered some kits and I can't wait to get them soon. I know they will be awesome and I hope to have them before Christmas.

Thank you again 4TonMantis and wish you great success with your customs and hope to do more business with you in the future!

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Ive got both the Ironhide and Ratchet sets, as well as his ghostbusters pack and they are pretty damn awesome. Super impressed with the quality

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Me too I got those two sets and the Ghostbusters Proton Pack and more. I can't wait to get them and I know they won't disappoint! I am so happy to get that Optimus Prime Jet Pack, what a great idea to make use of that huge Backpack. These were the ones I've ordered and I can't wait to see in the mail:


Optimus ALL KITS AND PARTS
Ratchet
Ironhide
Ghostbusters Proton pack

Re: Siege add-on kits and parts
 

Siege Impactor weaponry available. Created harpoon, drill, knife and gun so far. Impactor is a cool figure and surprisingly really like it.
